I used to watch so much Zim back in high school. That feels like ages ago at this point I've got to say!
Time for the news and acting goofy everyone! Catch you all tomorrow!

I want this to be a thing. Sea ponies are perfectly fine if they look like that.
Wow, 300 Music of the Day. When this little experiment started up a while back I honestly didn't think it would last that long. Hopefully it's helping you guys that don't quite make it to spotlight posts get some love. I've seen a few explode from word of mouth.
Anyway, get your Music of the Day below!

Description: A dinner party at Fancy Pants’s manor turns into an international incident as Rarity is accused of grand larceny. With a foreign delegation demanding justice, it falls to Fluttershy and an ace Canterlot attorney to clear her of the charges. But against the dark plot beneath these events, will their wits, skill, and a loud “Objection!” or two be enough to set her free? -- A “spiritual crossover” with the Ace Attorney series, by alexmagnet and Belligerent Sock.

Joining the trifecta of new tins including Luna and Rarity, Princess Twilight is now popping up at Hot Topic locations around the USA. Included inside are the usual items found in the others, with the promos swapped out for a Twilight Sparkle CCG card and... Applejack apparently. She needs her friends!
Thanks to Andrew for the image. These in particular were spotted in Jacksonville Florida. -
You know what had badass posters for their rooms? BABSCon did. And not just because Trixie looks good with spikey Yu-gi-oh mane. She looks good in any mane after all.
Get some art below!

You may have run into a small issue with the Writing Training Ground this week, namely the submitter not accepting submissions. Blame Derpy. She does this here on EQD sometimes.
Because of this, we are extending the deadline to April 26, 11:59 PM PDT, with the post going up on Sunday or Monday. Hopefully everyone that tried sending one in catches this or the update!
The prompt is still over here. Or you can skip right to the submitter here. Sorry about the inconvenience! -
I don't think I'll ever be caught up with all the amazing artists there are out there. At least it keeps me busy and these spotlights lively! We've got some traditional and digital artists for this week and a variety of styles so make sure to check them all out after the break!
As usual, these posts are in similar style to the Tumblr Spotlights, a group of 3-4 artists will be spotlit each entry along with a small short description along with a small selection of their artwork! In order to make this feature work though we need people to suggest artists to us so make sure to send artists you think need some exposure to calpain@equestriadaily.com. Please also include a short biography I can work with as well as what medium you work in most.
What sort of artists count? Suggestions should follow these criteria:
- No clop or extensive gore galleries as those typically violate our content guidelines. If the artist has a safe for work gallery separate from their not safe for work stuff they or their fans can submit the safe for work gallery. If there is a mix of SFW/NSFW on a gallery the decision whether or not to include them will be judged on a gallery to gallery basis.
- Don't be afraid to spotlight yourself as well as others!
- Artists of all types accepted -vector, OC, traditional, digital. As long as it is pony and of quality it has a chance of being spotlit.

There is no doubt about it, we love our colorful cartoon equines. With said love comes many an open wallet as we throw money at ideas that we actually like within the merchandise sector pony. As we noted the other day, the girls side of Hasbro is climbing rapidly while others seem to either be dropping or very slowly increasing.
Are we to blame for this? Is the brony phenomenon Hasbro's big trump card as children everywhere move to tablets and video games instead of Barbie Dolls and Hot Wheels? I know I've poured way too much money Funko figures and 4de plushies. How big of an impact are we, as a fandom, having? Head on over to The Washington Post for their take on the situation!
Thanks to Hackalot for the tip! -

Rainbow Dash might just have a problem. She and Pinkie are some of the most impulsive of ponies in the show though so carry on then!

Like Owl City? Hit that first one up for the vocals. The backtrack is a little messy at some points (probably due to the youtube upload) but the vocals are really well done.
And if orchestral/scores are more your thing, the second one should do it for you! Get them both below!
1.) Fort Hope - FritzyBeat & Almost Anyone (Vocal - Pop)
2.) Night Breeze | Prima Luce (Instrumental - Orchestral)

Meghan Teases Inspiration Manifestation
by Calpain
Can't wait for this new Spike episode! As we all wait for the episode this weekend, Meghan has put up a new tweet teasing a little about what we can expect on Saturday. Check after the break for this week's cryptic message.
Thanks to everyone for sending it in!

I've always had a love hate relationship with these three. One one hand, they take up a mane 6 pony episode, and I love me some mane 6. On the other hand, they surprise me every once in a while and make up for it.
Lets assume for a minute that they finally get their butt symbols at the end of the season. After all the adventures and trouble they have gotten into, I think they have been characterized enough for you all to guess their marks. So, what would they be? Hit those comments up with your thoughts!
Hard mode: Origin story for each. -
It looks like the company hosting the digital downloads for the Brony Documentary is shutting it's doors in a week from now. A mass email sent out to purchasers reads as follows:

On this date, the site will be replaced with a static landing page and all user accounts will be invalidated and removed. Please download any remaining copies of the film left on your account prior to the shutdown date.

I'd recommend saving your copy of the documentary if you purchased it over there.
Thanks to everyone for sending it in!
