Okay, so obviously we want to create our own pony characters, right? So here's how this works.

Step 1:
Go to: http://generalzoi.deviantart.com/art/...
Or, for more clothing options, go here: http://www.hubworld.com/my-little-pon...
(You have to wait for the ad to stop, and the introduction, but at the beginning there IS a pony creator. The only downside is that you can't add a horn or wings.)

Step 2:
Create your pony.

Step 3:
Take a screenshot of the screen, with your pony on it. Save it to your computer. Title it something memorable, so you don't lose it.

Step 4:
Upload it to your file on Goodreads.
*note:
If you don't want your pony on your profile album, find another way to get it to the internet. You need to have an html code for it, though.

Step 5:
Enlarge the photo on your goodreads account. It should take you to a webpage, but it should only have the picture on it. Copy the html code, or the "website" for it.

Step 6:
When making your character, simply paste the html code under "appearance". Your pony should be there. :D

DONE! If you guys have any questions, simply talk about them here.

Um...I kinda draw...is it okay if I just take a base and draw on it, with the artist's permission? I have a little virus and can't open flash stuff :(


message 3: by [deleted user] (new)

That's totally fine. This is just a suggestion. I believe some other people are uploading drawings and stuff too.


message 4: by [deleted user] (last edited Dec 30, 2011 06:29AM) (new)

I dont know why, but it wont let me do this so would it be ok if I had a link? To my own website that I would put all my pictures on?


message 5: by Kiley (new)

Kiley (dart) I'm probably going to draw something as well. ^^ Something about that generator bothers me. .w.


message 6: by [deleted user] (new)

Yes, it's A.O.K to draw. I'm probably going to upload a few drawings too. Hey, Flutter, me and you can draw some ponies during school!


message 7: by Catfish :D (new)

Catfish :D (applewhisker28) I've been looking on the internet for inspiration for my pony, and I've taken a couple ideas and threw them into one. Is that okay?


message 8: by [deleted user] (new)

That's totally fine. I actually had a TON of trouble with names, so I'm probably going to look at all the other Pony names from previous generations for inspiration.


message 9: by Catfish :D (new)

Catfish :D (applewhisker28) Okay, awesome :)


message 10: by [deleted user] (new)

Since you like Rainbow Dash, you could do Fyre fly (the pony MLP FIM'S Rainbow Dash's personality is based on)


message 11: by [deleted user] (new)

That's a sweet name.

When I was little I loved My Little Pony. But now that I look back, they were very ugly. Well, they were a little cute, but you know....

I had the entire MLP castle for Christmas one year. It was awesome.


message 12: by Catfish :D (new)

Catfish :D (applewhisker28) That's so cool.

Also, I'm having trouble with pony names. Can I put up a discussion about our characters, like, what to name them and family and stuff?

IKR! Me too! I wish now that I didn't give pinkie pie to my lil sis. She was, like, a third gen pony and she was my first! I have this one candy corn pony left though... yeah, they were kinda cute, but kinda ugly too, in retrospect...hey, look at these comparisons, though, too!

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE: BEFORE AND NOW



DORA THE EXPLORER: BEFORE AND NOW (This is a more recent change)


TINKERBELL: BEFORE AND NOW


Man, A lot has changed since I was a kid. But, with ponies, they're way better now than then.


message 17: by [deleted user] (new)

I hate how Disney re-made Tinkerbell. I mean, in the ORIGINAL Peter Pan, she was all sassy and awesome, and she used her cute jingle belle noises to speak. Now she's all sweet and caring, and is basically a butt face. Well, she nice, but I imagine her as a butt face.

IKR! Man, We grew up like the same didn't we? I remeber those old Strawberry shortcake dolls...those kinda creeped me out so I didn't have any lol... Basically, when I was a kid, I had Barbies, Ken dolls, My little ponies, polly pockets, one of those leap frog or leap pad thingies, and those little plastic animals you get in those tube thingies. Now, I've seen kids as young as 6 already having a phone! Don't get me wrong, though, I love some of the new stuff. Like, Ponies and all the DS systems and stuff. I got my first phone at 12, and I was actually planning on getting one at 14! Hah, but anyways, I like the new ponies and the new strawberry shortcake designs and shows, but not the dora and tinkerbell ones. Yuck.


message 19: by Catfish :D (new)

Catfish :D (applewhisker28) Lol, butt face. I really don't like her now...I thought she had a real personality before. Most of the time in the movies they make people all really nice and then the bad guys are just evil.

Yeah. I do admire, though, the animation style of the new movies. They are very smooth and have a very natural feel to them...

No, I'm not an animator. I can't even decently animate sprites! But I want to learn how to do that stuff someday :)


message 21: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah. Lol, my mom bought me the tube things all the time!

I got a DS lite when I was...eight, I think...I still have it, but it tends to freeze up a lot. I really only use it for Pokemon. :D


message 22: by Catfish :D (new)

Catfish :D (applewhisker28) I'd love to be a person who drew stuff for movies...like one of the storyborders. But I'm looking at dentistry now :) Gotta love your teeth!


message 23: by [deleted user] (new)

I really want to be an animator...SO BAD.....Mostly for Pixar.

But I'd also love working at an animal sanctuary, or just have a nice farm to live on.

OH MY FRIKIN CELESTIA Are you my lost twin?!? I got mine when I was eight too! AND I use it only for pokemon and GBA games! And I Want to live on a farm too!!! And I love animals too!!!

Sorry about that, it's just that we're exactly the same!


message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

That done be very creepy.......We are like twins!

What Pokemon games do you have? I have Pearl, Diamond, Platinum, Heartgold, Yellow version (I can't play it because our Gameboy Color broke, and the cartridge doesn't work on a DS) and Ruby. I luvs Pokemon. I think I'm cosplaying as a trainer for next years Anime convention.

I went to the Anime convention (here) this year I went as myself... I saw a LOT of pokemon people there


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah, I went to Youmacon (Michigan's ONLY anime convention) and didn't cosplay. It was my first year, so I thought I should take it easy.

The funny thing is, I went with my nineteen year old brother and my friend, and there were a TON of MLP cosplayers. I saw a Rainbow Dash cosplayer, and totally flipped out, because RD is my favorite.
Me, being surprisingly shy around my first anime convention, did not want to say "I like your costume". So my brother forced me over, and then was like, "Excuse me, Ms. Rainbow Dash, my sister likes your outfit." Only to find out that RD was actually a dude.


message 28: by Catfish :D (new)

Catfish :D (applewhisker28) I love Pokemon! I have Saphirre, Emerald, Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, SoulSilver, and Black. I lode Mew <3

I saw like 20 Rainbowdashs. I saw Applejack, and Pinkiepie too but they were the only ones.

I've so far gone to four years of the Anime Convention here

message 38: by [deleted user] (new)

I will create a charrie soon. Just wondering... What's a cutie mark?


message 39: by [deleted user] (new)

Do you watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic? If so, how far are you? Episode wise.

Here:
The My Little Pony franchise is famous for the symbolic cutie marks, unique tattoo-like features located on the ponies' flank or haunch. Cutie marks come in a wide variety of shapes and colors in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. They are obtained when ponies discover a unique characteristic that sets themselves apart from others. Twilight demonstrates to Apple Bloom in Call of the Cutie that magic is unable to make a cutie mark appear, explaining that the mark will only appear in due course. Their meanings are not always literal: Cheerilee's cutie mark is three smiling flowers, and she explains it represent her wish that her students "bloom" and be happy.

I watched one episode. I watched the one where spike started to steal everything.

message 42: by [deleted user] (new)

Derpy would make the greatest Pokemon.


message 43: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh my God yes!

lol, I have no idea what any of those Pokemon are. I lived in the Diamond/Pearl/Platinum era, I haven't even played Black or White yet. Mostly because my DS is super old, and can barely handle the graphics of HeartGold version.

James (jaygamer15) | 131 comments I lost my copy but i got a 3ds tho now waitin on pokemon grey


message 45: by Catfish :D (new)

Catfish :D (applewhisker28) Mah DS is so old, it almost split in two. I'm searching desperately for my Soulsilver!

I tried playing White, no offence, I couldn't make it past the first town. I was like, okay, I got this green pokemon and this grey-white bunny thang. And then I sorta got bored. I mean, no offence, but I'm not thatbig of a fan :S

I have a question. Can we make ponies with wings and a horn?


message 48: by [deleted user] (new)

Nope. There is one reason for that; only Princess' are Alicorns (wings and horn), princess's such as Princess Celestia and Princess Luna.


message 49: by Call me Random (new)

Call me Random | 61 comments Oh. OK. I didn't know that. Sorry.


message 50: by [deleted user] (new)

That's totally fine! A few people have asked that previously, I should make a FAQ.
