I rather love the way this comic captures the well-traveled steps of a family starting, growing, and then going to their natural conclusions, every step a new challenge with unexpected problems but with ever more rewards due to the effort. Adding to that the naivety of childhood combined with the struggles of parenthood and you get what is, perhaps, the best comic to have come out of the fandom because it transcends beyond merely being cute and actually uses it’s cuteness and characters in a meaningful, not gag-based way.
i don’t get you peterdash, didn’t you said you created that pointless tag because you wanted to filter away reuploads of one year old pics that due the upvotes appear in the most upvote pics of the week? well this pic is not even a freaking week old.

Yeah, the resolution is the same. There was a layer group I left turned off on the first release (Ink Well’s magic effects, specifically). I corrected that, as well as a small colouring error, for this release.
@Petedash
no, there wasn’t, “resolution” means size and this pic has the same size than the previous version, whatever the update was is not resolution related.
@Twilestia
Sunset Shimmer’s mention has no real bearing on the planned story, it’s just there as a nod to canon. I planned out the basic story before we even knew about EqG, but it hasn’t caused any conflicts or forced a rewrite (if anything, Celestia’s recent failure can be used to make her more sympathetic).
She’s the mother of Cadet Dizzy Star in the airship sequence. (Her other child’s name is Swirling Star.) http://comments.deviantart.com/1/394737252/4004238309
twinkleshine’s biological mother?

I’m so happy that there will be more Twilight’s First Day, too! :)
Brilliant, touching writing.
This is why I’m in this fandom.
Damm you muffinshire, that’s 5 hearts in a row!
Yeah. It has not changed.
Oh for the love of god, not again! Where that heart go this time!?
Goes off looking for it

I liked the Starswirl the bearded statue, nice one. I hope we get to see a statue or a flashback of Starswirl in S4. :)
