I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

I had no idea that show was still airing. I thought it ended years ago.

@Crow It went away for a few years but it wasn't completely cancelled...just revived.

@Crow It had got a new series commissioned after a three part special that was pretty much acting as a pilot for the new series. Which sadly the three parter special was only aired here in the UK. Back to Earth was the name of the special.

@Marcen Same with me. It's not really something to write home about at least from what I've heard anyway.

I only have up through season 8 available at the moment. I've heard VII and VIII are a bit of a mixed bag compared to the earlier seasons.

@Teeth They are. The former is more of a comedy-drama and the latter is something that deviates away from what it was.

Yeah, S6 went a little bit more on the drama (I honestly don't know why the whole subplot about losing Red Dwarf was in there; most of the episodes would've worked fine without it), but it was still funny enough that it wasn't a big deal. Though the absence of Holly kinda stunk.

Question. What does the crystal castle in the Empire look like?

Going to ignore my anxieties and try my Equestria Girls fic.

Dark- you're writing an Equestria Girls story? What's the premise?

An au where Sunset cchanges the connection with the mirror to the first pony universe she could find, in this case that of Tales.

Twi stays an alicorn, but due to the other universe's low amount of background magic, she can't regain any so any spells she uses have to be used carefully.

So she dawns a big hat and taped down wings over a jacket and uses an excuse as a foreign exchange student to go to their school, both to learn how the world works and find some friends to help. In this case the Tales cast.

I still haven't seen the movie yet. NO SPOILERS PLEASE...unless it's about Mass Effect.
Elsa is Shepard's father. Also, the Duke of Weaseltown killed Captain Kirrahe.

Okay, I'm kidding, this is the actual spoiler: It was Kristoff's sled.

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

@Dark: It's made of crystals of varying shades of blue, ranging from very dark to almost white. The very base of the castle is a public square. The Crystal Heart is in the center of this, suspended between a small crystal stalagmite and a much larger crystal stalactite. The castle proper stands above the square on four massive legs (which also hold the staircases leading into the castle). At the center, there is a balcony for making royal speeches. To the sides, there are two towers, higher than the balcony, topped by minarets. Closer to the center, there are two more towers, thinner and taller. The bases of these towers have a darker, blue diamond pattern on them. At the castle's center, there is a thicker and even taller tower. The same dark diamond pattern runs up most of this tower's height. It's topped by the wall-less platform where Twilight found the Crystal Heart (the platform had a fancy spire, supported by pillars) but this platform isn't visible in wide shots. There are flying buttresses and arches between all of the towers.

Here are the biggest screenshots I could find, if you'd like to blow them up and try to take a look yourself. (When Derpibooru stops derping, I'll see if anyone got any bigger pictures.) Aerial view. View of the towers. Ground level #1. Ground level #2, with ponies for size comparison.

Thank you, meta. I wasn't sure if I could properly describe it.

Really short description: Think Eiffel Tower, only smoother and thicker up top. And made of bluish crystal.

Yes, the Eiffel Tower is a very good comparison. Except it has solid crystal walls, rather than exposed struts, and it's also got those smaller towers to the sides.

Has anyone ever tried to make a Pony fan film that uses actual hand-drawn animation and not stylized flash?
