Yes, this is a plus for me, my idiot friends never knew how to work newgrounds, recently i linked my friend to a animation and he was all like thank god, now it's SO much easier to watch now..

I facepalmed.. But I'm glad my friends can watch at ease now.

Good, you'd probably choke on a keychain, get stuck trying to fit a t-shirt over your helmet, or obscure the vision of your safety goggles with stickers.

I use ad blocker because I dislike ads, I don't see how that response applies?

He was being a bully and was basically calling you an idiot, and because you aren't buying anything from the store, I agree with him.

Yes... Thank you no lag

fuck. I have flash 8, no fixel for me.

Yo NG, when are you gonna start hangin with paypal again? I have a £15 paypal balance that needs spending.

Instead of insulting users, the ads could say:

This is an advertising supported site. Please consider disabling your ad blocking software on Newgrounds!

Who knew that being polite, straightforward and honest could get you more support than being sarcastic, exaggerating claims and boasting a pompous wit.

Awesome, thanks Tom!

I'm loving the fact that I have ads so thoroughly blocked that even the Ad-Blocker images won't show up.

It's not the images themselves I have blocked, it's the entire panels.

To block the images I just Ad Blocked newgrounds.com/promo/*... simple enough.

How about fixing the little problem where the screen expands beyond the browser area and you have to scroll up and down to see the action?

That's been driving me nuts.

Zoom in on Plumet or Crazy-Ass Renaldo Rangers and you'll see.

You guys may not have take this into consideration, but one of the main reason to use and ad-blocking program is to avoid excess flash animations on a loading web page; not because of the download time increase, or the band with usage, or the plain dislike of ads, but because on old PCs all those flash components make it almost impossible to view pages like Newgrounds.com without insifferable lagging.

This may not be a problem for dual or quad-cores and such, but not everyone has the means to upgrade their PCs in the near future.

Also, what's with the insults?

Yah I have mentioned the lag issue, goldfish just came in and said "If you can't run the little ads how can you run the movies and games." Despite what they may think some of the ads they run can be like a whole mini flash movie and cause lagging and you can't turn the quality down on some of the ads like you can with most of the movies/games.

Now if all the regular ads were like the blocked ads, just pictures and not like full animation like the AQ/Dragon Fable ones, people like us wouldn't have lagging problems and wouldn't have to block them.

Also I recently tried running the ads again but every time I would come back after a few hours firefox would be at 100% cpu usage and I would have to close it.

the wide layout is getting allot better =D

A great update if you ask me. NG is now more faster than before

I agree. My PC is 4 years old now and it really does not handle them very well. Makes watchin Flash at a high framerate nearly impossible. Though I think the lag is a lot worse on DeviantArt than here.

Y'know, youtube has just copied newground's 'dim lights' feature. Sorry if it has already been said...

Um... I doubt your even gonna read this message. But I have detected a little glitch. Well yesterday it said come check out Saturdays top five! And today it's saying Come Check Out Sundays Top Five.
I just thought I would report that.

I KINDA HATE DA SCREEN UPDATES

FIXEL? Great just another tool where noobs can make games... ugh. Oh well, it gives everyopne who can draw a shot at programming.

I dont use AS3, but I might try this out in my next Particles game.

Good thing Ad-Block can block those anti- ad-block banners too. I must be a daft cock. Thanks anyway, newgrounds.

Really, is it that much of a bother to see a small banner image and a few square images once in a while? It's not like they create overlays or popups, they're just images set off to the side. It's cool, either know I'll never fully grasp your concept that companies don't deserve money to stay afloat, I will always think you're a piece of shit.

Oh yeah, YOU pay my bills and taxes, YOU buy me me shirts and shoes for school, YOU put food on the table for me...

go take a hike or something.

I don't care if people use Adblockers or not, I just think it's funny so many of them are taking the mocking ads seriously. As if it's targeting them specifically.

Meaning they're being offended on a personal level, like the ad is serious.
