Hi welcome to the arena!
Mmm shiny is good! I'm so happy to have a new all-generation fan among us. They look so good all mixed up together don't they? There's no need to pester your family about ponies so much anymore, because we love to talk about ponys here!
There's a lot of good cleanup/restoration advice in our Pony Corral , lots of ponies to buy in the For Sale forum, and a FiM subforum for the current generation. We also love to share pictures of our ponies in the Pony Brag forum so if you'd like to share, please feel free to post pictures of yours there.
I like shiny too, especially Twinkle Eye ponies with their eyes upgraded to real gems....I have a Masquerade with zirconia eyes competing in one our little picture contests one of our members is hosting right now, in the Pony Corral.
