• Nightly Roundup #449


    Spending a day with ponies would be fun enough as it is, but can you imagine spending a whole day with them at an amusement park? I can only say that it certainly be the thrill of a lifetime!

    News time guys! How off the presses! Also, I'll be taking requests for the header again this week so throw them down in the comments and I'll tally up the winner for tomorrow night.


    ATG Wrapup!

    Our friends over at the Alumni Group have completed another weekly challenge! Check below for the gallery and this week's theme!


    Heya, everypony!  Over here at the ATG Alumni group, we've been drawing up a storm, as usual.  This week, we were looking for those dolla dolla bits, y'all.  We've got the images handily gathered together over at our wrap-up blog here: http://mlp-atg-alumni.blogspot.com/2012/09/week-65-wrap-up.html  And, as always, our main dA page can be found here: mlp-atg-alumni.deviantart.com, with a new theme (or more!) posted each week.  If you loved the NATG, but think you've only got time to do a weekly theme, we're the place to be!  Come on and join us!

    Ponies Appear With Gangnam Style... Again


    Ponies are becoming pretty inseparable from Gangnam Style at this point it seems. In this interesting article by a Malaysian newspaper, a pony image made by artist Poppeto was used without permission despite the article having nothing to do with MLP. Either we have a really strange coincidence as some news editor tried to find a Gangam Style themed pic on Google or we have a Malaysian pony fan working for mass media. You decide! 

    Ponies Appears at French Fast Food Locations!


    Looks like French Quick locations will be getting pony toys soon! While they don't have any official pictures on what will be offered there is speculation that it might be the remodeled sets released in the US awhile back. Looks like you can expect on October 17th so keep your eyes peeled!

    WTVY Reports on Seeds of Kindness

    Ponies are appearing everywhere on local news stations tonight it seems! Another news program out of WTVY recently had a report on the Seeds of Kindness project and how they raised thousands of dollars for a Ugandan village. It's quite nice to see all this positive media around the fans and the fandom! Check it out at the link below.

    Washington DC Meetup


    Copy Paste:

    The DC Bronies had their biggest meetup ever with 100 people attending.  We showcased tons of the amazing local talent in the group - artists, podcasters, musicians, fanfic writers.  Of course we had our sing-along, this time to Forest Rain's newest song "Great To Be Different".  We watched Hurricane Fluttershy, had lots of amazingly tasty treats made by our resident bakers and held a bunch of fund-raising events for a super secret project that I can't talk about yet under threat of being sent to the moon (but stay tuned...).  Between the meetup at the library, hanging out until it rained in the park and splitting up for dinner at several places that asked "You have HOW MANY?" it was almost an entire day of friendship and fun!  And even that was too short!  If you're in the MD/DC/VA area, come and join us next month, or even next week!
