Hey everypony!
I'm recently getting lots of requests to implement Vinyl Scratch/DJ-Pon3.
Well, I got some good news for you! :) Ponytail has just finished to add her and she will be in the new version (which will hopefully be released soon).

### Version 1.5

Good news everypony, version 1.5 is finished and ready for downloading!
Here's the new stuff:

- Improved Collision: Some general bugfixes but I especially improved the collision when ponies are flying to other windows. Twilight should be no longer falling down every time she teleports somewhere and action chains that involve flying to another window should no longer be interrupted
- Support for multiple monitors can be activated in the main menu
- I've written a program that has cut away all the useless transparent borders from the gifs. There were quite a lot so it should be a little performance improvement as well as better looking. Some ponies (like Filly Twilight, for instance) had big borders which made them look like they were flying. I hadn't time to check every single gif, so if you find any bugs or problems my script has created, please inform me.
- Rocky from Party of One. Credit to Harley!
- Better looking speech bubbles that are now moving with the ponies. Credit goes to Moonbeam from Ponychan for creating the templates for the mane 6. I've written and included a program for you to create your own speech bubbles.
- You can now move the "line" where collision begins. Some images (like Luna or Sweetie Belle sleeping) have the problem that the tail is under the feet. When collision begins where the image begins, it looks like the pony is flying. I'm pretty sure I didn't find all images that have this problem, write me a mail or use the built-in feedback button if you find any.
- INTERACTIONS! well, kind of.... Actually, the code is complete and fully functional, but I didn't have time to add any to the pony.ini files, so you'll either have to add them by yourself or wait for the next version, sorry.
- Jorlem requested a button to instantly select the mane 6, so I included one :)
- Thanks to Moonbeam, Pinkie Pie has learned how to shatter the laws of our dimension to teleport around.
- Settings are no longer saved in the Appdata folder. I didn't like the behavior of .NET to create a file outside of the application's folder, so I manually coded a mechanism that saves to a file within the same directory where the .exe is located.
- Settings like enable/disable speaking no longer require a restart of the application. They work immediately.

### New Download Host

Since Derpy seems to have broken the Megaupload links for some of us, I've reuploaded the program at Mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/?x06g56gltk14112
(Thanks to Anon from Ponychan for reporting the broken link)
Have fun!

### Version 1.1 (Poni Update!)

Hey everypony, new version is here!
So, whats new this time?
Well, probably the most important thing is that I've added a lot of more ponies. Most of your favorites should now be covered. I'm still missing a few, but I'll add them asap :)
Beside that, I have added an feedback form which should make it easy for you to report bugs, suggest new features and stuff like that. You can write me completely anonymous, but I'd recommend you to include your mail address if you want me to write you back. You can also add an attachment if you want.
Don't be afraid, try it out! I'm always happy when a brony writes me, so make me happy, please :D
Thanks to every brony who uses my app! Download link is here.
Other stuff:

- improved support for multiple monitors. Unfortunately I couldn't test it because I only have one screen. That would be a good moment for you to try out the new feedback feature ;)
- Fixed Apple Bloom's images
- Improved the style of the app a bit

### Finally Version 1.0 out!

Sorry for letting you guys wait so long, but I had really a lot of work to do recently and just couldn't find time for coding. Thanks for your patience.
Anyways, here is Version 1.0!
Since I didn't work on it the last weeks, I'm not really sure what's new this time, but I'm pretty sure I've done some bugfixing and improved the support for 64bit systems and multiple monitors ;). I've also improved the collision detection: There should be no more (or at least less, I hope) crashes when having a lot of ponies on screen.
Other new stuff:

- more side ponies added (thanks to Pony Tail)
- main menu can now be opened via right-click on a pony
- The disable speaking and disable cursor chasing checkboxes are now persistent. You don't have to select them after every restart.

Now let me tell you about the new buttons I've added to the main menu:
First of all, the pretty self explaining "check all/uncheck all" button: Since there are now pretty much ponies, I thought it would be useful to have a button to select and deselect all of them with one click.
Next we have the "save selection" button. If you click it, the current selection of ponies is saved and will be reselected after every start of the application. I thought it could be convenient if you could save your favorite set of ponies and don't have to search for them every time.
Last but not least the "enable/disable autostart" button. When you enable autostart, the set of ponies you've saved with the "save selection" button is automatically started when you launch the app.
Important: All settings are saved in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\WindowPonies (replace C:\ with the partition you've installed windows on). If you want to delete the app, you should remove that files too.
AppData is a hidden Directory, so you should make sure to display them or you won't see it. In case you're experiencing any problems, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Finally thanks to all of you who use my little application and if you like it, don't forget to help improving it by giving feedback and reporting bugs ;).

Special thanks to Pony Tail for creating .ini-files for the whole mane cast!
Changes:

- every pony from mane cast (and Spike) included
- new configuration system for the pony.inis. Way more flexible!
- you can now build chains of actions (e.g. let the pony walk right, stand there for 5 seconds and walk back)
- ponies will sometimes speak quotes from the show
- ponies can now fly to random windows instead of only the active one
- fixed a major bug that caused problems when images with different heights were used
- tons of other bugfixes
- improved support for users with more than one screen
- Speaking and cursor-chasing can be deactivated in the main menu
- source code no longer included in standard download, because I don't want to confuse users without much computer experience
