I've watched a little bit of the Japanese episodes of pony and I've got to say they did a pretty good job of it! Hopefully the show garners a ton of fans over there and we get a flood of artwork and other projects as a result.
News time guys, sit back and relax while you catch up on tonight's tidbits.
Pinkie's Island
I love Yoshi's Island as a kid so this video is really hitting my nostalgia button pretty hard. Go Pinkie! Guide Gummy to safety!

Pony Game, Trilight, Looking for Artist (Demo Included)
Copy Paste:
Hi, I'm Scootadoo and I'm working on a game called Trilight. My idea for it is that of a survival side-scrolling game with (somewhat) realistic physics and logic puzzles. Now some of you might say: "Hey wait a minute, wasn't there a game with that name a while back?" And the answer is yes, this game was originally being developed by Michiel De Mey, but some time ago it was cancelled. I asked Michiel if I could continue the project and after receiving an explicit permission I started working on it. Right now you can download a demo version at http://ponysoft.blogspot.com/
Also you might have noticed that my artistic abilities are severely lacking. If you are a visual artist and you are willing to help, contact me at scootadoo(at)gmail.com. If you have some place where I can have a look at your art, put a link in the mail because I will be delighted to do so.
Thanks and have fun with the demo :)

Fluttershy Day
Copy Paste:
I don't care what people say or if this is even posted, I just thought I would make a new holiday for no reason, so I did, it is kind of late notice, but I did it anyways.
https://www.facebook.com/ FluttershyDay
Here are the rules. (I think they are rules.)https://www.facebook.com/
On Fluttershy Day, you
1. Go out and plant a tree (if you can, I know it is hard without planning.)
2. You hug a tree. (literally hug a tree, it can be the one you planted.)
3. You do something good for a tree. If it is falling over, you can prop it up.
