Guess who's got two thumbs and some new cover art. · 12:36am Aug 26th, 2014
Thank Underpable and my wallet.
Meanwhile, writing still progresses slowly on to carry Wub forward at least as far the beginning of Desperation Manifestation.
Thank Cryosite and my keyboard.
I like one of the theories on derpibooru.

There are a couple fics out there with that premise (either genderswap or Shining dressing in drag). But so far, mine is the only one where they are actually separate characters.
2401214 I'm all for adding Shining to this image, though it's pretty damned nice as it is.
There's also the idea of Trixie being Twilight's sister, based on the color scheme of mom and dad, cutie marks & all. Intriguing thought...

A pretty popular idea in the winningverse (and I think elsewhere too?) is that Vinyl is a half sister of Twilight's, fathered by Night Light. Since she looks near identical to Shining and all.
2401250 Ah, I haven't seen that one. I kind of like it! As "real" sisters, they'd probably drive each other crazy.
Edit: Cute image

I rather like the idea that Celesia is Vinyl. How better to let her hair down?
(Optionally, Luna is Octavia.)

Which makes OctaScratch much different...
I approve of this product and/or service.

Nice. Question: Do you have a thing for having a avatar with one red and one green eye?

The answer to that is a little complicated. I first started using my kitty avatar over a decade ago now. At first, it looked like this:

Soon, kitty learned to stop being so evil and start being fabulous:

Then Christmas came along:

Soon after, however, I ran into too many situations where I could not use animated avatars anymore. I found the answer in a meme that was popular back in December of 2006:

I've been using DesuSantaKitty ever since (And even had to troll google for the santa hat I used in order to make a bigger version for Fimfic), and still use it on non-pony sites, but when I found that pic of Rarity, I knew I had to use it. And after only a day of Rarity with her usual eye color, I was struck with the ~idea~ that I should tint her eyes to match the kitty in order to stand out from the multitude of other Rarity avatars.
TL;DR: It's a long established tradition of mine with an illustrious history.

I see. I remembered that Santa kitten avatar with one red and one green eye, but I didn't think the hole thing stretched THAT far in time!
...CadenScratch?
At least it's not Octavia.

VinylDance, named by right of discovery.
(At least I seem to be the first who didn't make Vinyl out to be Shining in drag.)
