Some friends and I have recently been putting together the beginnings of a classic online pony RPG. Currently, we have a private demo build with a standard MMO engine built from scratch that works - and a committed team that will stay on the project until completion (maybe past that). We have an abundance of programmers, devs, and testers, but need additional resources in graphic art and spriting.

Check out the link below, we would really appreciate your help!

I cant draw backgrounds well and the ponies I draw for animation are mis shapen. I find that it is easier to vectorize and import these shapes to flash and manipulate them rather than tracing and drawing each and every pose. I know it's a dirty trick but Im desperate with a long animation to do. I'd like it to appear as if it was produced by the studios themselves.

Are such things legal? (Giving credit of course)
And has anypony ever done something like this?

Hi /collab/!

My thread in /now/ will be moved here soon but until then I'm in need of a little advice/help on a different (yet similar) topic.

I created/run the website www.anypony.com and it's going great, but, I came up with an idea for another site. It is still in the very early stage of development but it'll get there. only to be unsuccessful and disappointing

I won't give away too much just yet (I would hate for somepony to take my idea) but I am giving a heads up that I am going to need help with making the site look pretty and function well.

I can do the coding, but I have a terrible sense of matching colours and whatnot and my sites end up looking cheap and "HTMLY" (if you know what I mean... which I don't really expect you to...it was a bad joke..). An example of my poor colour coordination is my recently made Mod area for my Anypony Email Mods. See pic. *cringe*

This project may be a while down the track (or it may be next week!) and who knows whether it will even be successful, but this is what I am looking for.

I think it would be cool if we made a MLP Stepmania theme and simfile pack. The simfiles would be all of the actual songs from the series, plus, optionally, various fan favorite remixes. I would personally prefer if it were a pad pack (since I play pad), but I think we could at least have Challenge level songs which are Keyboard-only.

Of course... I can't add much to this project, since I've never made simfiles before and have no idea how to make a theme, but... just throwing this idea out there.

Yes...that's right...YOU HEARD ME..i'm planning on making an abridged series. if you're female or have a VERY CONVINCING female voice and you think you can sound like any of the mane six ponies or at least close to them or any other character in the MLP FIM series. then leave a comment here and send me a

I've seen lots of 2D sprite games posted here, and I do love me some good old-fashioned two-dimensional goodness.
However, I think an MLP game that has the style of animal crossing, with perhaps higher graphical fidelity, although that's not really a large factor for me.
In my opinion, it lends itself really well to that type of game, and with the same kind of graphics that's going to be used in PonyKart I don't think I would ever leave my computer.

The option to have large multiplayer servers would probably make sure that nopony leaves the comfort of their own house ever again.

For those not in the know, Animal Crossing was a simple yet entertaining 3D game which heavily involved your relationships with other animals and overall adventures.
I know this will probably never happen but we could all dream right?

Opinions? :)

*Sigh*

Hello,

A friend and I will be working on a project soon to make a pony version of Red Dwarf using our OC’s and some characters from our site: phoenixbronyrecruitingservice.webs.com.
Though the series will be comic based, we want a full length animated episode to really get people interested, therefore, we need the following:

-3 FEMALE voice actors
-An Animator

The script is being written, and is well on it’s way to being finished.
The episode we are working on is our version of ‘Polymorph’.

The characters we need voicing are:…

hello everypony

I was wondering if you could help a fellow fan out. You see my boyfriend is making MLP Jewelry for a up coming convention and needs to know how many to make.

So I figured the best way do that would be a poll if you could please post your favorite pony , it would give us an idea on the popularly of each pony.

also if you have been in art you will know that i have already posted this and im sorry, i really dont know where to post this.

Hello everypony! Today, myself along with some friends have launched a new website ready for public beta testing - bronyplayer.com

It's basically your source for all your pony music online and on the go, without the need to actually download any of the music in order to listen to it.

It's still heavily under construction, and that's the very reason every single feedback would be highly appreciated! We are still undergoind major updates, adding new features and songs, and your help is very much needed!

You can check out the site at bronyplayer.com, as well as the contact addresses where you can drop off your feedback and/or ideas or suggestions.

Thanks alot! /)^ε^(\

Introducing... The Humble Brony Bundle! ( http://humblebronybundle.blogspot.com/ )

So, what is the Humble Brony Bundle? A way for bronies to come together and create a fund to buy one big copy of the Humble Indie Bundle. By pooling our resources we can easily become one of the top ten contributors. Spread the word far enough and we could reach number one!

And by helping the cause you'll be supporting charity, indie gaming, and good publicity for all bronies everywhere!


Why should you join the Humble Brony Bundle cause?

You can see more info on these points at the Humble Brony Bundle website, but here is a quick overview:

I figure it's about time to throw it to the theoretical wolves.

I've been working on a mlp card game, as an exercise to help me get rid of a block for my commercial series. It went much further than expected.

I am not working on the one here that eventually got to EqD.

Anyway, the goal was to keep it simple, within the show's original demographic, while keeping the cards easy to print and readable on both card stock and screens (while providing a programming shortcut for the latter), AND be complex enough to reward deck-building WHILE allowing one to use any two ponies they want.

I think I did well.

The game is incomplete (mostly in part for my utter hatred of screencapping), and the card design will need to be tweak (especially that pink background on the Mane Party is a placeholder, at best).

Howdy folks, its time for some shameless advertising...

As some of you may already know from several EqD mentions in the roundups a few weeks back, there is a [email protected] team for us fans, called [email protected] Now, if you are unfamiliar with what this is, the simplest way to describe it is that it is a program that you set and forget, designed to use unused processor power to assist medical research. Just to keep this short, if you are interested, check out the link below:

Out of thousands of active teams, ours is soon to hit the top 400, with over 260 members. Would be nice to hit 300 and beyond. Pop in and say hi (you can post as a guest - we don't do that mandatory registration crap)

OK, I'm not sure if somepony else is doing this but i had an idea for a biweekly online gathering called The Biweekly Brony Rewind Night.

It's a way for similarly interested people to revisit an older or overlooked gem or maybe just revisit a long lost multiplayer experience.

I know what you're thinking, "What the hay does this have to do with ponies?"

Can you think of a better community to hang out and play a great game with? Short of the old idle thumbs community i believe the pony community has the best attitude to play and discuss the games we've left behind. The idea is to really get a community discussion and feel going, I only ask you are either at least 16 years of age or mature in your online mannerisms.


This is how it works:

Essentially, i start a thread (probably in the games board) in which you ponies nominate the game of your choice within either 120 or 240 characters. (haven't decided which)…

Hey Bronies, this is my first time posting here, so I hope the format is correct. I run a group on steam that enjoys role playing, and I have been engaged with the tabletop community here in north Texas for over a decade. So when combat came up, it was a messy mishmash of god-modes destroying everything in sight.

So I decided to do something about this, by creating a tangible total conversion of Dungeons and Dragons 4.0 (With World of Darkness elements mixed in). Here is the very early version of the tabletop, "My Little Pony: Courage is Magic"

I've provided four 'races', three of them being pony based and the last being an animal companion like those so prevalent in the series (such as Angel and Gummy). They each have different stats, and a unique feature that sets them out.

There are also seven classes, six of them based on the elements of harmony that the mane cast emponies. The last class is once again the animal-companion, which focuses on working in tangent with their pony master.

There's a WoD-type magic system, that's freeform and lets the players use their imagination on how to make it powerful.

Take a look at let me know what y'all think!
