I'm not so good in make pixelart, but I will participate it.

Our ninth annual Pixel Day is January 23rd!
Participate by making original pixel art, animation, games or chiptunes. Publish your entry on January 23rd and include the "pixelday2024" tag.
If your work is making its world premier on Pixel Day, you are eligible for our prize competition! Include a second tag, "pixelday2024-compo" to confirm it is a world premier piece and is competing for a prize. If you are sharing something you've already posted elsewhere, stick with just the pixelday2024 tag.
If you’re a pixel artist who has never shared your work on NG, we’d love to see you join in! You can enter multiple categories or submit multiple entries. You can also team up with friends to make stuff.
Fan art is fine, if the art is your own original pixel work and not sprites ripped from games.
If you’re making a movie or game, try partnering with someone making chiptunes on NG! We can’t host content with unlicensed commercial music, so avoid using songs you don’t have permission to use. Here are some music resources.

Email 2FA
We just rolled out email 2-factor authentication, which is now the default for anyone who hasn’t previously set up 2-factor authentication using an authenticator app.
This means that when you sign in to NG from a new device, if you aren’t using an authenticator app to generate a code, a code will instead be sent to your email address. You’ll have to copy that code into the login form to complete the login.
If you’re currently logged in, now would be a great time to confirm that your email address is correct! Otherwise you may find yourself locked out in the future.
We still recommend setting up 2FA with an authenticator app, so if someone ever breaks into your email they still can’t access your Newgrounds account. You can set that up via the “Login Options and 2-Factor Authentication” link on your account page.
We’ll be fine-tuning and improving this in the days and weeks to come. If you’d like to report any problems you’re having with this update, PM me or email support AT newgrounds.com. If you email Support, be sure to include your username in the email.
VPN Logins
For the past few days we’ve been blocking VPNs from logging into NG, as an extra security measure. Now that email 2FA is in place, you should be able to log in with a VPN again.

Hello Tom! Would you kindly specify the timezone by which the deadline will be measured? (Like 23rd 23:59 UTC)
In classic gamedev fashion I'll have to crunch to the last hour to get my current project to a decent enough shape to compete. ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ❤

Do I have to submit it before then or right at that time?
Hello hello, I would like to know if there is a Pixel Day delivery date. I know it starts on the 23rd, but will there be more days to upload our pixelarts after the 23rd?
So cool! It's my first year on Newgrounds as a pixel artist, so I will definitely participate! Super pumped to see what everyone's got cooking up!
I accidentally posted my song today but quickly unpublished it because I forgot we're supposed to post them on the 23rd. is the piece disqualified for the compo or is it fine?

Probably The File Format Is Wrong. Try Upgrading It At CloudConvert.com To Upgrade It You Need An Account There.
Happy Pixel Day! I didn't get a chance to get back into art quick enough to participate this year, but am excited to look through the submissions!
