At least Scootaloo has all these different RDs to keep her company before getting a good nights sleep. Sleep well little Scoots!
Got some news tonight for you guys! Get it after the break.

We lucked out when Lauren Faust picked up this pony filled awesomeness a few years ago. One thing a lot of companies love to do is attempt to ride on that fame, and these are some of the most recent toy knockoffs Yes, those are indeed Pinkie Pie, Twilight, and Rainbow Dash's cutie marks, albiet a bit different colored. I for one am very afraid.
Luckily this alternate reality never came to be. We ended up with some of the most appealing character models in cartoons, all of which will live on for years after the show is over.
So go celebrate our ponies. They deserve it.
Thanks to @JonDGlass for the images up! -
If you want to turn a baddie into something harmless just turn them into a little kid. They get 10x more adorable with their mini-sized evilness.
Evening guys! Ready to chat before going back to work/school on Monday?

Something we have always wanted to do here on EQD, but couldn't due to time constraints, is run editorials and interesting articles on various topics around ponyland. With most of the EQD staff working full time tech jobs on the side, and the rest of us trying to keep up with the general pony news/fandom creations as a whole, periods of inspiration for putting together anything well researched (or well written) in the editorial sphere are rare.
Our editorial section is a good example of how uncommon these are, with only a handful in the last year or so (and many of them more silly than useful). That's something we have wanted to change for a long time. And so, in usual pony community way, we ask the masses out there for help.
Do you have a super interesting article in mind that you think would be awesome to publish here on EQD? We are opening up the submit box for it!
As with most things here, we will only be able to accept a limited amount, and typically only the best. Silly topics are welcome (top 5 cutest ponies in socks on the way), but we'd like to get some in depth interesting stuff as well.
THE CHOSEN will get to publish their completed article, and of course, list their Twitter, Deviant Art, or whatever other social network page they want people to go bug them on. Since EQD has always been relatively small in the grand scheme of the internet, and never large enough to fully hire anyone, these will be volunteer based. As an added note, we are not taking older already published articles. Just brand new stuff!
And with that, we are open! Hit the submit box up if you are interested in giving it a shot. Have some examples too:
(Serious/in depth) Fandom History Series 1 / 2 / 3
(Silly/Fun) 5 Things we Want to See in Season 5

THE COLORS EQD, THE COLORS. You know what I hate about modern gaming outside the Wii-U? No colors. What is with the browns and grays that have dominated the last decade? Why is Final Fantasy 15 promising browns and grays with generic anime dudes on motorcycles? What happened to my ridiculously colorful Spira? I demand a rethink on the way gaming works in the next 10 years! We need colors!
And this art is awesome.
Get some more awesome art below.

Another week means another Artist Spotlight my friends! Hopefully I can keep this schedule up. We've got a mix of active artists and artists on a bit of hiatus today, but even though they haven't updated in awhile doesn't mean their work shouldn't be recognized. So check on after the break to get some great art and make some new friends!
As usual, these posts are in similar style to the Tumblr Spotlights, a group of 3-5 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.
Now on to the artists!

I do believe we featured the above comic at one point a long time ago, but failed to provide updates to the story over time. It's expanded quite a lot since then so click above for page one of the story and follow the links in the description for more pages.

Hello again, good mares and gentlecolts! I apologize for my long pause in posting these interviews, for which I have no good reason. However, they are still very much a thing!Today we are having a good chat about art and ponies with dm29. You likely know him from the comics he makes, as well as from the fairly distinct vector artstyle he has and for the fact that his ponies normally end up sillycute and adorable as all get-out. I had many things I wanted to ask him about, and he has graciously answered my questions. Look below the break to see what he has to say about doodling habits, facial features, ships and prestige classes!

Description: Diamond Tiara is a rich, spoiled brat, and the only thing she cares about this Hearth's Warming is how many presents she's going to get. However, the night before Hearth's Warming she receives three mysterious visitors, each with something different to show her. With the help of these ghosts of the past, present, and future, she just might realize the true meaning of Hearth's Warming.

It seems like just yesterday we were all hyped up over the first Balloon Party with it's army of musicians at the helm bringing us a boatload of pony music. Fast forward to 2014, and Academy of Power has arrived. The 3rd installment will release at 2:00 PM EST on December 1st, with a full radio show on Celestia Radio at 2:00 PM EST to 7:00 PM the same day.
More information should pop up in the next few days! That poll on the side bar says you all love music, so get hype yeah? -
