I'm curious if there's any plans to add a comic friendly format to the site. Of course maybe there is one that i'm not aware of.

Certainly wish ya guys luck, I've even turned off my adblockers just to help \o/

I am very much on board for bringing back this old titan of the bygone internet age, if for nothing else but for the sack of shenanigans \o/

Also, if any of the site admins see this, I second this

Being able to group pictures together is quite handy, specially for comic styled stuff.

That will be another glorious day for NewGrounds. All artists are welcomed here.

That would be an awesome improvement. NewGrounds is always updating and getting better.

Sharing some feedback from a friend from elsewhere (who is actually here but is still settling down, lol)
"NG" more like NG+, get it? Feels great to start over around new horizons.

This is the perfect time to start a new account at NewGrounds.

NewGrounds is large enough for every artists from Tumblr, and still have plenty of room left over.

You sure about that? A few hours ago the site was going down a couple of times, haha

It might be best for Newgrounds to adopt what Paheal websites currently do, which is have standardised tags that count how many times they're used. E.g. you start typing "Princess" and before you've even finished the word, the system auto-suggests "Princess_Peach (4297)" or other various princesses.

I agree, this would be a significant addition! Whew... NG sure got a lot of work ahead... still, it's gonna be a huge pro if they can pull their weight; I feel strangely optimistic! :D

Wow, so many new people, this is actually kind of exciting. Love this site

(despite me not actually being active since 2007.......besides random drawings here and there...I need to get back on that.)

I keep finding cool new artists to follow on NG! I can't believe I didn't get into browsing the art portal sooner.

Welcome everyone!
Excited for all the new art that's going to be posted in the coming days.

It makes me so happy seeing how accepting this website is, and how Tom Fulp still runs this place and didn't sell it out to some corporation that would take the site and slowly suck away any soul it had until it's a sanitized turd. Fulp needs to be immortal. Him and a few other Internet 1.0 figures are our last hopes.

If not I think it ought to be added. People who do fics in addition to art will be moving here too

Fanfiction is considered art/content creation. SO I believe so.

I LOVE ALL OF YOU HERE.
New here. Thanks for the warm welcome.

I'm from Asia, doing some partial translation to East Asian languages as I noticed that there are more artists from said location are attempting to move here, yet they have trouble understanding English so I'm currently doing partial Japanese translation alone to break language barrier.

We still need more CJK translators so that they can go along with Newgrounds Community itself.

This site has been pretty interesting and unique with its community way of interaction compared to other social sites for me when I joined late this year. Cheers to you and your team, Tom! I hope to find more of my favorite artists as the community expands from this wave!

Could you please just make it an option for the old layout to be used? Maybe on Pico Day you could switch it back to that layout as a little treat?

I second this! I always liked how NG never stopped looking 90s/00s-ish and would really like it to stay that way.

Newgrounds was a large part of my teenage years and I'm so happy to see it reach the level of attention it deserves again.

Thank you for the warm welcome!

I remember enjoying content here when in my early teens... and now it feels like welcoming the new rise of an old, nearly forgotten, but never gone power back into my life.

Excited to be here!

Newgrounds was a big part of my online life back in the early 2000s, mostly because of the flash games and movies. Not sure why I stopped visiting as I grew older, but imagine my surprise when I heard y'all were still around!

The warm welcome is very much appreciated.

Oooh, Zone, the most famous Newgrounds hentai animator! You made this? It looks great.

These people do not integrate well.

It will be an SJW shit fest before the week is over and I honestly believe this will change newgrounds for the absolute worst.

They are going to see shit and SREEEECH to all hell and back.

I'm happy the site will be getting some revenue, I do like to see newgrounds go on, but not like this.

I think you're overreacting. I don't think SJWs are very into kinky porn or the kind of people have here.

Don't worry, Tom is probably the most honest and kindest creator of a popular website right now. At least it was popular. And it now may be again.

Newgrounds has always put creativity first, i haven't posted much myself due to self confidence but i'm glad than all the people jumping ship will find this awesome community.

If the artist from Tumblr are coming here then make sure you put a Blog feed and Repost

The Reblog button on Tumblr was the best thing for the artist to have given it gives them the hope someone will see there work and it is seen more and more when more people Repost it.

Also Bring the Ask for there blogs if its story base, I a lot of Tumblr art is half are story base where someone asks them something and the artist make about replying to it

Huh, guess I'm pretty late to the party. But yeah, kinda migrating from the whole tumblr thing. Haven't fallen victim to the whole explicit content blocking since I don't really post that. But I feel a lot of traffic will slow because of the changes and that's not good for what little exposure I already got there.

So hi all. New to actually doing stuff on this site and I'll be posting my stuff progressively if anyone wants to check that out.

Ooh, didn't know about that "adding to home screen" bit. Now I can pretend I have a Newgrounds app!

You got the wrong guy; it's Moses, not Jesus.

shit your right

I was on newgrounds long ago, circa 2009 or something, but my old account was lost (the mail it was associated with is so old i can't recover it) and the nickname was dumb too.
So... Here i am again.
This site looks really friendly and nice, many of my pals have come here as well.

Some say "go to twitter", but i don't trust that site, i feel like they'll pull this same tumblr shit one day or another.

Honestly, it pains me to see so many artists switching to Twitter only. It's good for the interactions, sure, but it's a pain to search for art in there, not to mention that images are compressed to hell and back unless you add at least one transparent pixel.

Haha, if only their bot flagged the right images.
SFW artists are getting pelted too.

Secondly, their wording is somewhat vague on other kind of porn besides real life humans.

huh didn't know about the transparent pixel, that's useful.
But yeah, it's shit to browse art there. I mean, it's not twitter's fault, it was never made with artists in mind in the first place.

Oh cool! Time to scout some more!!!
I think it would be cool if there was some way to upload and watch comics in a more convenient way.
