Awesome, Tom.
Don't forget, I'm sure there are hundreds of users willing to help if you gave 'em a chance.
And it looks like the ' is fixed.
Hi there! In case you didn't know, I created newgrounds. No, it wasn't made by some giant company - just some dumb kid who now has help. I also co-founded the Behemoth; we made Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers. Icon by Pegosho, banner by OmenaKettu.

You're buff.

Neat idea on the ASed collab controls, do you think there might be scope for a kind of collab engine for all the collabs that go on here to use? Perhaps with added AS audio syncing... hmmm...
Personally, I've never thought of you guys as smug, just immensely proud and rightfully so.
Tom-
Yeah, I could imagine putting together some general collab controls, although it's also fun to mix things up with each collab. For example, I loved how the Queers of War collab had individual links, with an unlockable if you watched them all. But then for Transformers, from the beginning I wanted to have that logo transition between each cartoon... And there are just too many submissions to list, so it's more fun to watch them all.
I was considering breaking it into two, where from the beginning you choose Autobot or Decepticon - the way the movie promos have been doing. But that just didn't seem to have the right flow, and putting everything together seemed like the better idea.
I added Blamformers into my favorite... but I have no idea how to make it my number one...
And my users info page is not loading.
404 all the time.
Take care <3
The site should be running fast now, as of last night around 9:30ish.
After you add something to your favs, you can click the updated link to manage your favorites.
Blamformers was a cool idea, too bad i was caught up at the time making rockout games. Speaking of Rockout, results anytime soon? =)
Hope to have the winners announced this week. AG has picked their favorites and although I need to go through some more today, I think their list nails it well. I'm also making my list of music winners, which I need to finish asap.
hey i was wondering, is the tank man the new mascot of newgrounds now? cause at the moment it is having more presence than pico all around the site.
I see the site as having multiple mascots... I sort of seeing Tankman as representing NG (as an extension of the tank logo) and Pico representing the NG user (such as myself), if that makes any sense. And yeah, Pico does need to get some more play on the new design. :)
I really love everything you've done with the site, and Blamformers is amazing.
dude, is there going to be a friends system on here like on the other sites?
There's a part of us that completely fears the idea, but there's another part that accepts it as a natural extension of the whole community. I mean, people DO want to link up to eachother and visitors DO enjoy browsing from artist to artist. So yeah, there are plenty of plans that revolve around that sort of thing. Just keep in mind, Myspace is Myspace and Newgrounds will always be Newgrounds. And Myspace didn't even invent that stuff - they ripped it off from Friendster, which was an improved version of previous networking sites that never took off.
Congratz tom and Thanks!!!! I think this is the only coolest Website ever i seen in the net...
hey tom
Tom, I think you are right about not coming off as smug and instead it just being in good fun. I think people who would see the KFed intro for example would think it was just a laugh really.
Blamformers was great, I'm kicking myself for not doing anything for that.
I'm definately going to do a bytesized movie if you are still accepting them though. I was thinking about remaking that old one you did of the Mountie kissing his horses ass. That was always my favorite one back in the day.
This is to show you guys busted your asses for the sake of revitalizing all of NG on the web and off......While happy surfing..... I think about how much....not only how much effort........but cash.......was laid out since '05......like wow.....I can't even think of an estimate......
Also I noticed that you took off all the old NG stuff like
The unoffical Video Portal from 2000
FDA from 2000(?)-2003
Happy Tree Friends from 2003-2004
Not that they mattered, but they were always nice to look back at............Will they ever comeback?
Been planning to make an FDA series page, I gotta get that in place.
Hey, Tom, I just have a problem with NG. :(
When I click "PLAY THIS GAME!" or "WATCH THIS MOVIE!", nothing happens, and an # is added in my browser space.
i.e.
newgrounds/portal/someflashblabla
(CLICK)
newgrounds/portalsomeflashblabla#
Javascript is on though. Any help?
Tom, the redesign is great and all, but seriously, when is the NG Mag getting it's much needed makeover?
Awesome job there Tom, thanks again for including my piece in the collab!
nice....sir.
Rudy
Tom, you can't always be so happy. You always seem to be having a smile of your face, besides that one front page post with your sad addition to the NG News. :D
It's okay to get angry sometimes, I think it's time to show Newgrounds your aggressive side and like punch Wade in the face on camera, that'd make alot of people laugh. :D

I'll see what I can do.
