(w00t first post)

Thank you, I'm glad you found Fred the Notable Monkey to be amusing. I'll keep making more cartoons! =)

What's wrong with double posting?

Well if you're unhappy with it, at least for the next one you can strive to do even better! =)

Anyways, what will be the next 5So? It's about time that you guys have made a thread about the new 5So. Howabout orange?

Anyways, yeah.

Ha ha, I think it's a little soon for that. Usually there is a week or two in between (last time it was like 4 months...)

We'll see. Keep your eye out for the next one though!

I made a new Bonus Level of Cubetoons, if anyone wants to see:

It is about Shigeru Miyamoto and what he does all day. =)

You should have said something earlier! We could have called it the "5 Shades of Grape Juice" collab!

The score and review score of 5sop is higher than the submission with daily first.

Probably wasn't at the exact time Midnight hit.

What really surprised me was the no front page. Didn't Tom talk about the series on TV? I figured it would get up there at least a day or two... =(

Ah well, next time. =)

Ahhh I see. Yes, we got Daily Second! Good job everyone!

A lot of people (most actually) in the reviews said about the sheep glitch though, I think we should fix that. And fix MX's entry too. =)

Hey Twinsen,

All things aside, you really need to fix MephistonX's movie. It isn't supposed to go that fast. Something is wrong. Please look into it.

Thanks.

Yay for the 5 Shades! Finally up and doing well!

Too bad we didn't get front page or an award, but hey that's okay. We all still did a great job. Applause to everyone involved!

Well now a nice few week break before thinking about the next one. =)

Everyone loves the thrill of publicity! Even if they already have a lot.

I think if it doesn't take long you can change it, but if it will cause more delays leave it the way it is. Just my thoughts on the subject. Up to you.

Woops, sorry about that. I'll go accept now. =)

Don't worry about the extensions, those are just putfile not giving the correct dimensions, but I fixed a lot of the music problems mnwfi told me about and the info problem, but neither of us had the credits problem of a whitescreen.

Okay I went back and tried it again and the credits worked. Wacky. I guess Putfile just had a spasm or something the first time.

Cool, almost done! Yay!

The info button is broken (it loops constantly)

The credits button is very broken, it goes to a blank white screen.

I can see the edges of the movie where they extend, I don't know why that is. (Like the bottom and top shows beyond the stage or something)

I think that's it... It looks good overall though!

(Oh also, I did the music for mine, which is why it is so crappy, so if you want to stick that in the credits feel free. And you should put "5 Shades Of will return..." or something, like in James Bond movie credits.)

Why don't we put up THIS one and then we can figure out the future ones, hmmm? =)

Also it was I (bad me!) who made up the random date. Because NO ONE WAS SAYING ANYTHING. So I just put something out there to get people talking again. It worked! But now seriously we need a final posting date. How quick can you finish 'er up, orb?

Yeah, there's no way it can go away forever with Orange still out there of the main 6 colors! =)

Wow! Your so nice, I'll be sure to do both of the things that you have recommended, the next one will be even better. Look for my submission, there will be some easter eggs of my past submissions which failed, stuff I have not submitted, and other junk.

Thanks for being so supportive.

Hey no problem. Glad I could help. =)
I always try to be as encouraging as I can because we artists need to support each other so we don't give up. (So far I think I've given up on art 13 times... But never for more than an hour!)

Anyway, I don't know when the next "5 Shades of" collab will be, but keep an eye out for it.

i like the art

Thanks a lot! I've been working on the style for a few months. I'm finally starting to get a good grasp on the characters and making the comics look better (I think) each week.

I more recently added the thick black outlines around them. I don't know what sparked me to do that, but I like the effect.

Nope, they're called "Bonus Stages" because the main comics are labled Level 1, Level 2, etc. and these extra comics aren't main levels, just bonuses. It's based on video games, like the levels you'd play through.

Thanks, the person who did the site worked really hard on it.

Also, sorry the first person didn't like the comics. Ah well, you can't please everyone all the time...

Hey all you crazy Newgrounders!

I just wanted to see what people around these parts thought of my new site Cubetoons.com!

It has the Cubetoons comic and will host reviews of game and art tutorials and stuff. A little different than FredtheMonkey.com (which I guess is what I'm known for around these parts.
Like this cartoon here. )

Anyway, let me know what you think. If you have time to leave some feedback I mean.

No, i don't think we established that yet. =)

Whoa whoa whoa, orb, you're in CHARGE! What's up with the :( ?!?
Give us some details on when the submission date is and such. How is that going? The menu is done, right? So it will be all finished soon? Yes?
How about submitting it Sunday February 26th at 8PM. Just throwing a date out there so we can be done and move on to the next one!

Greedom... We already established that :D

I think that turned out well! Especially since you had such little time to do it. Sadly, the collab deadline is past. But you could always submit it to the portal on your own, as some other people have done in the past.

Keep an eye open for the next Shades Of collab! It looks like you have some talent with Flash and would do well if you enter the next one! =)

Sorry, Mephiston!
At least you still get in though. I know a few people with Shades of Brown were quite disheartened when they didn't make the vote, and therefor didn't get into the collab at all. I'm glad everyone gets in this time. And hey, there's always next time for co-author.

Alright! So we're pretty much done now, right? What will be the submitting date?

Yeah, I like that better jorncar. The front row still seems a little big and gets in the way sometimes, but that's okay. It works better. But I still say there needs to be a word or arrow or something on the sidebar, so people know to roll over it. Either way though, good work.

Now can we submit this thing? (If we're waiting for everyone to vote a SECOND time, I honestly don't think that will happen here. Email the people seperately and then maybe, but enough with the constant delays...)

Stupid no edit button...

Anyway, as for the other co-author, I really don't want to vote again. It's one thing to have multiple people to vote for, but I don't like voting just one against one. So in order to make certain another tie doesn't occur (the problem the first time) I will decline to vote the second time around. That way there are an uneven number and someone will HAVE to win.

But honestly, if we wait for everyone to come back and vote AGAIN, that could take another three months. Seriously, ORB- you need to make an executive decision here. You're in charge, so you make the final call, otherwise this collab will never finish. Honestly, it's a much better way to go than "Let's keep voting until we're 80 years old."

=)

PS. Saw the final menu and it's better. I still think there needs to be a menu tag on the bar to the side though. Or something that makes it known it isn't just a really cool side decoration, which honestly is what I thought most of the first time I used the menu. Really cool title screen though!

Hey, pretty cool menu!

Yeah, I agree there should be some sort of rollover on the buildings. It was way too hard to figure out what was going on. And maybe slow them down a bit? Tall buildings in the front kept getting in the way. Also, there WILL be some people who don't know to roll over the bar on the side and miss any of the non-building button submissions. Someone will. So maybe include a little flag hanging off the bar on the side that says "Menu" or something. Or "click here"

I'll try and get that image ready later today!

Can we use the menu from Shades of Brown or something? Seems like that would be fastest and easiest. So it isn't another half a year before this is out. =)

Let's keep the new menu simple if we don't use one of the old ones. Just so the timeframe is short, eh?

FINISH FINISH FINISH FINISH FINISH!!!!

Hello?! What's going on?!

It is time to submit! Yes?
