Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Hmmm... I thought I was doing this right, but now what I've done is I've added the ad to one of my older flashes (as a sort of test) and all its done is put the newgrounds logo thing with 'Our sponser...' with no ad, and it dosn't say anywhere that it is in my earnings source.
Any Help?

It might make sense to have a radio button available for users who want to put an ad in their flash but are too lazy to set up the API. Then, if it's activated, a short ad plays before the actual flash game/movie plays.

Stop being so great.

Setting up the api ads really is not that hard. The point of the api ads is that they stick with your submission no matter where it goes on the internet. It's not worth investing the time in your idea because it's just a worse version of what is already available.

Anyway.. the new interface is great! It's nice to see everything gathered in one place for viewing. The new graph is also much more streamlined and convenient.

Like the RSS Feed, it was the first thing I noticed when I checked my account today!

awesome! confused though. does this just track your api revenue, or do you actually get money for the ads on your flash's page?

0.00 earned.

IM ROLLING IN THE DOUGH!

Okay, it's all good, but I don't get what's happened here. It says I've made $0.05 in the earnings breakdown, but it says I've made $0.00 on the graph. Even when I change the source to userpage ads, there's still nothing. Any known reasons for this?

Better pic

a good way to make money would be to completly rip off an original unkown animation, maybe even a series. with one long shitty copy cat. then because newgrounds loves unoriginality it would go on frontpage and probally top of the portal. earning you lots of revenue and fame. joy...

They said further back in this thread that graph only responds to 1000+ impression points. You have like 87 impressions and a bitchin' eCPM.

Oh, okay, thanks for the reply. And yeah, I do seem to have a pretty amazing eCPM.

GOD BLESS YOU THOMAS FULP!

I thought the RSS was just me

why couldn't you have released this BEFORE the media storm? D:

Hm, strange...mine says $ 0.00.

Now...if I click Ad Earnings and "total" for this "year" I see a graph till march 2009, 3294 impressions, $ 0.47 (woot woot!) then it stops. So ya, other graphs aren't working. :(

But overall I have to say...fuck yeah, awesome sauce! :)

Also, pic for proof. :(

Glad to see all those years in school paid off.

So let me get this straight from my point of view.

If I, as a member of NG, with no audio or flash but post alot on the BBS and hang out on this website almost exclusively, relying on strangers to click on my user page either on the forums or links i provide on other sites, would it be benificial to me to sign up for this service? Or would I be wasting my time?

You might as well sign up, you've got nothing to lose. If if you make no money from it, you will suffer no loss in any way. It's basically just a chance at making a little money on the side.

So If I'm understanding correctly, you can earn money for yourself if you host ads on your Flashes and or on yuor website?

Sort of. There are already flash API ads, whicha re optional ads placed within the .swf you submit, but there is now a new system. In this new system you can earn money simply from having a Newgrounds account. Everytime someone views your userpage you get a [tiny] amount of money. The same goes for your flash submissions. The difference between the API ad system and the new ad system is that the new version does not have the advert within your flash submission, but below as a banner.

Yes, I think it's very important that these types of icons stay default. :)
