This is the one I use as one of my wallpapers:  As well as this one, of course. Those you posted are quite awesome, though. Too bad I can't find them in wallpaper size... And there's also a map of Equestria!  Hadn't head of Vanhoover before. Sounds rainy. I wonder if Seaddle is close by? And where is Trottingham and all its British ponies? Oh, and I ended up playing the leaked build of Fighting is Magic. All your Street Fighters are now irrelevant.
I used that first wallpaper for a while but I couldn't quite get it to fit my desktop. Someone changed it shortly afterward. And finally, a map of Equestria.

You know what I think is awesome and legit? There should be a MLP: FiM fangame where you can create your own pony and live in a town or a city, kinda like Animal Crossing. In the game, you can run errands, make friends, go on quests/side-missions, buy furniture, appliances, and luxury for your home. You can also travel around many places of Equestria, and create a town. Like Animal Crossing, there are holidays and events you can attend or enjoy like Nightmare Night and Winter Wrap Up. You can change your time, month, days, and year. So what do you think?

I think someone's already working on it. By the way, it's NaPoWriMo! ( National Pony Writing Month.) I was thinking about entering just as a warm up for Na NoWriMo in November, but I haven't even started yet, so I'm not sure how well that's going to go  .

I didn't know about that! Well, guess I'd better dig up those few paragaphs I wrote and start typing then. I'll share it with you guys once I have something done.

That is a really cool idea. I do know that someone modded Final Fantasy VI and replaced all the characters with ponies.

This video may answer some of your questions:
I guess you should pay particular attention to Legend of Equestria and Equestria Tales. Maybe.

Man, those look awesome! I remember reading somewhere that Lauren Faust is working on Fighting is Magic. Is that true?

@DJ Trancetronica I tried to find information for it, but it's kind of difficult since I don't remember the name. I'm not sure if it's exactly what you described, but I know someone's working on something similar
@ jacobe12 That is false, I'm almost 100% certain.

Something I've been seeing, or at least hearing about is division within the brony community. How do I put this... Certain bronies discriminate another on the basis of their preference or liking for certain types of content, something I find ironic since I've grown to believe that most bronies try to be nice to each other in order to have a harmonious community. Well... some have said that it's just doomed to fall flat on its face and others say it already has. Thoughts?

From what I've seen, those who discriminate against "liking certain types of content" just aren't bronies in general. These are usually the kind of people who claim they don't like "furfags" in general. I think the bronie community is as alive now as it's ever been, especially since season three hasn't even started yet. I believe this is a fanbase that will last well beyond the end of Friendship is Magic. In other words it's not "doomed to fall tlat on its face".

^ This.
Most bronies around will be against a certain type of content (R34), but they're usually quite tolerant towards everything else. For example, I don't usually listen to brony music because it's normally too electronic for me. But whatever, I don't mind if other people listen to all those remixes all the time. And this type of thing happens on all sorts of brony media, like fanfics and fanart.
And the community is just a bit slow now because we're between seasons. Check back late next month.

There's going to be a lot to discuss when Season 3 starts. We already know about [spoiler]Crystal Ponies, Shing Armor and Cadence are gonna be there (in fact they might even have a child). There's also a pretty high chance that Discord is going to be there.[/spoiler]

This is the kind of person I associate "Brony" with. Which I don't think any of you guys here are.

Oh. Ugh. Ow. D:
Yeah... I think... No. Just... No.
This is what being a brony is all about:
