Story: Shades of Midnight (Update Side Story 2!)

[Normal] This is actually an addition to Out in the Cold by an entirely different author.  Apparently EsperDerek (The person who wrote the original) Liked it so much they forced her to submit it!  It's not required, but you might want to look into reading it before this, if only because its an awesome story anyway. 

Author: Phoe

Description: All grown up and off to Canterlot University, a homesick unicorn finds comfort in a trip down memory lane. An exploration of the character Midnight, Twilight and Trixie's daughter from the Out in the Cold series by EsperDerek.

Story Updates October 4th (The Real 4th This Time)

I don't know how you guys do it, but these updates literally come in waves.  I had 0 yesterday, and wake up to 8!

It's story update time.  As always the same rules still apply, this is only for Updated stories.  New stuff, sequels, and final update stories do not fall into this post.

Please email me at Sethisto@gmail.com if any of the links are broken.  

Lauren Faust's New Project Revealed!

Lauren Faust's brand new project has popped up on various comic book blogs around the internet.  Though this is not directly pony related, it's still Lauren, and she's awesome, so I'm reporting it!

The new cartoon titled "Super Best Friends Forever" will be an animated short style show starring Batgirl, Super Girl, and Wonder Girl. The low quality image above shows off the art style somewhat.  Hopefully we can get a better image eventually!

There isn't a whole lot of other information pertaining to the project right now.  As more pops up, I'll probably keep reporting on it.

Thanks to everyone for the heads up!

Minimalism edition!

Today we have a wonderful set of pixel-art wallpapers from Kitana-Coldfire, and a grab-bag of others. They're pretty much all awesome. All of them. Dig in and go grab some more pony- because you can never have enough pony on any one computer. Ponies don't actually take disk space because they're made of magic bits.

See what I did there?

It's okay if you didn't.

Pony Voice Actor Charts

For all the animation lovers out there, a bunch of charts have popped up displaying each character and what other roles the voice actor has played.

Honestly I didn't even know Tabitha St. Germaine voiced so many characters just within the ponyverse.  Zecora really surprises me!
