    1. You should do a picture book adaptation of "Bubbles."

    2. Was I the only one that saw that this had 1713 ratings and a 4.9 in total? It changed back once I refreshed it but the site slightly miscalculated what it had...

      Anyways, it was a good story, I just wish I hadn't known that it was a winnie the pooh based story till the end.

    4. I wanna see memes of sailor Derpy now.

      I could just picture her floating around ponyville in a cart-boat and thought it was cute.

    6. The description implied a large dose of d'awww, and the story delivered it with a side order of lol.

      VERY well done, including using the art.

    9. Sometimes, inspiration can come from unusual places. And sometimes, they were just meant to happen. :D

    10. Excellent story. Everypony was perfectly in character, but they still managed to be like the Winnie the Pooh characters at the same time.
      Also, I totally noticed that bit with the bubbles. ;)
      I agree, that should be her special talent.

    13. Having read the Winnie-the-Pooh stories a few times, I commend you on imitating their style perfectly. The story itself was wonderful as well. 5/5

    16. I loved the Original Pooh movie and book. Childhood memories right there. I will read this because it has Ditzy, Dinky it looks of it, and it's based off of WInnie the Pooh /)^3^(\

    17. That was completely fantastic. <3

      You captured the tone of the Pooh books so well! I'm also stunned by how well the pony characters fit the Pooh character personalities . . . I mean, Rabbit and Carrot Top? How perfect is it that she is named after a carrot, that rabbits eat?

      The illustrations really added to the story and were just plain adorable. <3

      I particularly liked Ditzy Doo's ponderings on Becoming a Sailor.

    18. Reading this with sitar music playing in the background is a marvelous experience. I highly recommend it.

    19. You know Christopher Robin's life got ruined because his dad named that character after him right? Constant teasing and bullying which lead him to pick up boxing just to defend himself. After going off to war and getting his brain filled with shrapnel, he saw how his father used his childhood as a cash cow with the Winnie the Pooh series, he grew estranged from his father (whom he only ever saw three times a day as a child to begin with). He never once spoke with his mother during the 15 years after his father's death. That's to say nothing about how his mother wanted a girl, which explains why he looks so fruity in the books.

      "[My father] filched from me my good name and had left me with nothing but the empty fame of being his son."

    20. That was quite possibly the best way to follow up an awful day, ever. Thank you, uSea.

    21. And I think it's enough cute sweetness to get me through mine. A wonderful story.

    22. Very well-done - charmingly adapted, beautifully illustrated, and an overall fun read. =D

    23. I have nothing to say, save this:

      That was absolutely, spectacularly amazing.

    24. This was incredibly sweet and very silly in the best kinds of ways. A wonderful bit of light reading to start the day with.

      I couldn't help but smile all the way through; especially at all the little pictures and ponies climbing on the words. :D

    25. This is nice; I hope to see more of her adventures.

    26. This is so close to perfect it's ridiculous. Pinkie Pie as Tigger and Carrot Top as Rabbit was awesome; I wish Twilight had been more Owl-like, and there had been room for Fluttershy as Piglet, but... I really don't care, because it was so close to perfect for what it was trying to be. This is a very, very well deserved 6 stars.

    27. Well, it was relatively good.

      The picture-text format was interesting.

      Also... ''Ditzy is comfy'' :).

      >A bouncing Pinkie Pie asked Ditzy to make sure that Carrot Top knew about the party they were having later,
      -The sentence right after (which was made to be read like Pinky is bouncing) is on 2 pages... It would be better if you would lower the first 2 lines, so they fit on 1 page, instead of 2.

      That's very odd. I was sure that I'd gotten the formatting to work.

      Does your browser change the font or the text size somehow? The main text should be in Size 14 Times New Roman.

      Did you try preview mode? I'd imagine that should leave the formatting as I'd intended.

      Hummm ?

      Whatever I resize the page, it still is on 2 pages.

      I can't really alter the size of the letters, without changing the size of the page with it.

      I've been unable to replicate this problem so I don't know how to fix it.

      Thanks anyway for bringing it to my attention.
