• BGM: Clock is Ticking! / The Zap Apples / Granny Smith's Story

    More awesomeness from Will Anderson. It's a shame he doesn't have a facebook fan page we can invade! There is a website with a few new updates at least. Toss him some support there I guess?

    Anyway, check out a few new BGMs below!

    1.) MLP:FiM BGM: Clock. Is. Ticking! & Hi, Girls!
    2.) MLP: FiM BGM - The Zap Apples
    3.) MLP:FiM BGM: Granny Smith's Story / History of Ponyville

  • Comic: My Little Pony - Genesis


    I hope you guys are in the mood for an epic length comic tonight!  This one currently clocks in at a whopping 41 pages.  It does revolve primarily around OC ponies, but there are a bunch of mane cast plugs to balance it out.  I haven't had time to dig through the entire thing yet, but I have been told by a few people that it's worth a read. 

    Check out the prologue page here, and follow along in the descriptions for more!
  • Artist Training Grounds: Mock War Day 2 At Long Last

    So, resubmission is officially over and done with. I think that went very successfully, thank you all so much for your patience. We are finally, finally, finally ready to move on! I'm so excited and proud of all of you! For our restart day, we've received a grand total of 551 armored and uniformed little ponies, all of which you'll find below the break. I think this proves pretty handily just how much smoother everything goes when you've got a functional submission script! =D

    Remember, when sending your Day 2 stuff, head on over to this site and fill out the forms as you see them. "Name" means your user name. We had some confusion about that. If you're submitting from DeviantART, remember to send the actual image url and not the deviantART page link. Any other questions or submission derps are always welcome at phoe@equestriadaily.com.

    Update:  There's a minor problem with the submission script which is being attended to. Please, for the love of Celestia, wait a couple of hours before resorting to e-mail. I beg of you.

    Day 2: You're In the Army Now
    After taking some time to get adjusted to your new life, you finally feel ready to turn up for basic training. Like your bunkmate keeps saying, no point in marching off to war without knowing how to fight, right? The sun is shining painfully bright above you, as the drill instructor barks orders at pair of fencing unicorns. 
    "No. Guard up, damn you! Up! Riposte! Why aren't you...? Ugh. Just... just take five, everypony."
    Now, she turns to you, and the rest of the newbie class, gesturing to the foam swords sitting in front of you.
    "Pick those up and find a partner."
    It doesn't take long for you to learn you're not cut out for this. It's impossible to get a grip, and all you can manage to occasionally take a clumsy horizontal slash at your sparring partner. You're rewarded for your efforts with a disapproving thwack from the instructor's own foam blade.
    "Nmph. Yuh hbth to hrd rt lrrk thth!"
    "Mrph?"
    "Thth! Lrrk thth!" She gestures wildly, but does nothing further to communicate her... uh... point. 
    "Whr mrshf..." Ptooi. "Why would anypony even make weapons like this in a country without hands?"
    High above on a tower balcony, Princess Celestia stifles a giggle.

  • Music: Coolness That Defies Gravity


    It was demanded that I needed to give this it's own post, and I can't agree more! Have a kick ass find a pet remix from Jackle App.


  • Music: Epic Rap Battles of MLP - AcousticBrony Vs. Mandopony


    Both musicians have a huge following, but who is the superior artist?! Which one will come out on top when they are out of their normal acoustic filled element?

    YOU decide!

    It's Epic Rap Battles of MLP!

    After the break, as always.

  • Story: No Rest for the Wicked (Update Part 2!)


    [Dark] [Sad] [Adventure]

    Author: Vilwind
    Description: "Magic, as the moon, has dark side." Everything Trixie wanted when she came to Cloudbergen was making her name famous in one of the most obscure and remote locations in Equestria, a place with a mysterious past and gullible citizens...

    With a sudden turn of events her expectations are shattered, she attracts unwanted attention and meets her early demise faced with a seemingly impossible task that puts her pitiful life on the line, possibly even more. Something lurking in the shadows is ready to offer his help, but are his ideas the right ones? Trixie is taken to the most sinister passages of Equestrian history, learning that sometimes, death isn't the worst alternative, and evil lies everywhere, at every hour... Will she be able to escape her unfortunate fate?, Or be dragged to the wretched depths of the world-not? Magic is Chaos, Art and Science. It is a curse, a blessing and progress. It all depends on who uses magic, how they use it, and to what purpose.

Next we will watch, comment, and revel in the continuing flood of pony videos and PMV’s, along with a live showing and commentary of the newest pony episode, The Last Roundup!
     
    Unfortunately, our host and omnipotent leader, CircuitMane will be unable to join us today, as he is currently lost in the Everfree forest on the way to his new house!

  • The Great and Powerful Trixie has Returned!


    The Great and Powerful Trixie enjoyed her trip to the far east, and as you foals can see, was loved by everyone.    Not only did she convert that disgusting shipping container into something useful, and tamed her greatest nemisis's dragon companion (with her new Chinese mustache magic) , but she also completely upgraded that drab old robe and wizard hat into something much more festive.

    Truly a pony of Trixie's caliber cannot be questioned.  Even the press is unable to resist her awesomeness. Trixie sees Pixel Kitties snapping a photo right now in fact!

    Perhaps one day fillies and colts like yourselves will be on the Great and Powerful Trixie's level, but for now,  Equestria is under the rule of one worthy of such a title.  Happy Chinese New Year, and enjoy a new banner from aeronjvl to commemorate the occasion.
