Except it's been down since the redesign..

But yeah, this isn't quite General material. Maybe put it on your userpage and link to it in your sig, or put it on Camp North. They like stuff like that there...

Response to: When you watch a childhood video. Posted October 9th, 2008 in General

My elder sisters used to make me do the most stupid things on childhood videos. As in, we made a vid about a love triangle, and i barely even knew what sex was at that point..

So yeah, I did some stupid stuff..

Anyways, this is less about my e-mails, more about my browser problems..

what version of firefox are you running?

the latest one. 3. something

what operating system are you on?

XP

have you tried reinstalling?

Nope. Do you think it'd help?

Firefox annoys me! Posted October 9th, 2008 in General

Basically, whenever I try to open certain websites, notably my Yahoo inbox, it comes up with a sign saying:

'Mozilla Firefox has encountered a problem and has to close'

And then it closes. However, it's not just that the site is too 'heavy', because stuff like Newgrounds and Camp North work flawlessly..

Has anybody else encountered this problem, or know how to stop it?

Thanks,

I love that book!

My wife will be called 'the'. I guess it was to be expected...

However, unsatisfied with the result, I tried again, in my German textbook for school, and I didn't get a German word. I got 'oral'.

Top 5 most used panels? Posted October 3rd, 2008 in Game Development

What 5 panels/windows do you use the most on Flash?

For me, it'd be:

1. Properties
2. Colour mixer
3. Library
4. Scene
5. Actions

I'm just curious..

Response to: hi from turkey Posted October 3rd, 2008 in General

Hey, welcome to Newgrounds!

We generally don't encourage these sorta threads. Check out the BBS Rules.

If you have any questions about Newgrounds, check out the Where is/How to? Forum.

Thanks.

Hey, it's the internet...

You have no obligation to be here, you can run off to WI/HT? if you want maturity, or stay here if you're here for a good time, have a bit of fun, and not click on the topics you don't want to..

Simple as that.

This would be the most useful tool ever. But why a cockney?

You might as well just have it that if you ever even open Flash, you get a mandatory NG BBS ban for 1 day.

NG friends? Posted October 2nd, 2008 in General

I hear a lot of people on NG talking about how they have made some great friends on NG, etc. etc., but I ask you, how does one accumulate NG friends?

Is it merely by you sharing the same views on things, then you PM them?
Do you randomly PM somebody?
Or do just pretend to be somebody's friend, but in fact, you've never even talked to them?

And no, this is not a plea for friends. I am merely interested to how NG accumulates e-friends..

Thanks,

Response to: i wanna start Posted October 2nd, 2008 in Game Development

Check out these programs for animation. Adobe Flash is what most people here use for making animations for Newgrounds.

Adobe Flash CS3 Get the free 30-day trial first.
LiveSwif A free Flash-like program, but it's way worse.
Pivot Stickfigure Animator A free stickfigure animator. Only exports as GIFs though, and is very bad. OK for beginners though..
Pencil Don't know much about it, but I think it's free.
KoolMoves Free trial
ToonBoom Used less for internet animation, more for TV.

Good luck,

Liverpool FTW!

Such a very fitting goal for Gerrard's 100th, typical of Gerrard.

Not too bad for Keane either, hopefully that'll be the start of his goalscoring career for LFC...

Maybe this year will be 2005 all over again..

How many PMs in your inbox? Posted September 30th, 2008 in General

Title says most of it: How many PMs are in your NG inbox?

But rather than just saying how many you have, which would sort of result in the oldest users having the largest inbox, try to find out the average. To do this, just complete the simple formula:

Total PMs
Total days on NG (approx)

I've been on NG for about 210 days, and have 232 PMs in my inbox, so:

232
210 = 1.1

So, what is your average PM per day ratio?

I'm experimenting with the formula idea, so it might not work...We need that 'preview post' button!

Commit a Random Act of Kindness! Posted September 29th, 2008 in General

OK, so here's the idea: Send a random PM to someone you appreciate on NG, just to say that you appreciate them (but don't spam them).

It'll make 'em feel good, and you'll feel good, and maybe you'll make a few online friends.

So go out, find them, hit Send a Private Message (PM), and wait for a loving response.

I did it yesterday, and it feels great!

Post on this thread if you sent one, or received one.

If you're not too keen on PMs, you can also:
Post a comment on their blog.
Give a loving review to a crappy flash/audio of theirs.
Give them a 5 on their flash even if its horrifically awful.

Now, go and be kind!

Well, many of the Blockhead flashes were made by The-Swain in a week or so, so it's possible..

But getting awards like that ain't easy...Since you haven't got a submission over 3.0, I wouldn't get your hopes up...

But there's no harm in trying..
