foxix, what are you using to make all your gif. those must of taken for ever!

A dirt old copy of photoshop & imageready 7. lol, yeah it took a while but things were sort of expedited since I just grab gifs from all over the place and crop them. Hunting down actual scenes and then taking them over to benderconverter/gifsoup takes FOOOOREEEEEEVEEEER and the quality gets super dodgy.

It's fun though and it's giving me something to do til Animation Mentor starts aside from sitting around doing nothing else but spending more time in Persona/Pokemon/DCUO :3

And if anyone can read the text in the banner you get a DJ P.0.N.-3 seal of approval haha.

What wrong reasons? It's not like they wanna fuck the ponies or anything... do they?

Well there's always going to be THOSE people for ANY fanbase, though it's pretty tame and subdued on places like Ponychan with strict Rule 34 and NSFW policies in place.

I wonder how horrified the creators of the show must be.. Read the checklist of values they wanted to introduce in the show; all good stuff for kids.. But the fanbase turns out to be middle-aged men who are obsessed by the show for the wrong reasons and who keep repeating catch phrases to each other over and over again.

That's really the creator of the show? And she likes that WE like it?

Awesome.

Yep, it's her. Deviantart site here: http://fyre-flye.deviantart.com

And I can tell you that, going by every single of her interactions with the fan crowd, she seems to be a great person.

You foxix are awesome and so are those avatars, but I'm going to hang onto mine for now, I've really grown to it.

Quick Tip: The show's creator is never going to insult somebody that watches their show in public. They want as many people to watch as possible, no matter who that might be.

Imagine every fan of Brad Pitt's that's ever shaken his hand or asked for a photo. Was he psyched to meet all of them? Almost certainly not, but he was polite to all of them because he wants as many fans as possible.

I have no problem with pony fans, but using that as a defense makes you look desperate. Just watch your show and ignore the people hating on you.

Thanks G-Fex! You guys feel free to stick with them for as long as you guys want :D I just noticed some people were still asking for some. I figured I'd make a nice avatar buffer zone for myself and others haha. Hopefully there's about near enough for everypony to have something good to pick from now.

I'm so glad you guys are digging them so much!

Ok, I saw a couple of episodes and the show is pretty top notch. I still want to say that this thread scares me and I will now be exiting stage right. I'll lurk a little bit, so keep the hype train going.

LOL. Foxix, you are awesome. I can't even begin to know what you've been through to provide us with these avatars.

Edit: And I really, really, don't. I just want my innocent and happy pony show with great animation that makes me smile once a week.

I don't watch the series (tried an episode, wasn't for me, but I can see the appeal), but your response is weird. It's akin to saying someone who says "I'm ok with this" is actually saying "I am not ok with this." Why not take her at her word? She could have left the comment unanswered, but she chose to reply in a manner which is consistent with her stated goals for the show.

That said, there's always going to be some weird, disturbing part of a fanbase... like pictured above. eww

I think you meant to quote:

And I agree. You can't just try to invalidate something by saying that there's a slight possibility that it could be a lie. If it's 'desperate' to use a quote from the show's creator to back up opinions here and to justify the fan base (not that it needs any sort of justification) then so be it, I guess.
