First audio submission question:

Why isn't my song showing up when I search for it in the audio portal? Is my song only available to me?

You need to get scouted first. When a guy submits to the Audio Portal for the first time his work will not appear in the Audio Portal since he's not scouted yet. You can only get scouted by someone else who is already scouted himself/herself. Generally when people consider whether to scout someone or not, they look into the quality of the music and more importantly whether it follows the rules or not.

Just abide to the rules, keep posting your music, and eventually you'll get scouted!

Thanks a lot. How long does it usually take or does it just depend on whether or not someone gets around to it?

that depends on the person. either they'll wait till you have more to offer, to scout you there and then if they think you're good

I'm in the same boat. I've got 2 songs, but they don't show up in the audio portal. It seems that unless I go and "troll" my stuff on the forums, they'll just sit around in obscurity. By the way, I'm new to newgrounds, so I'm finding my way around.
