Meh, the best on NG are:
1: Synj (For alien hominid)
2: Knox (For all his funny-ass claymations)
3: Krinkels (For creating the madness series)
4: VGDC (For rise of the mushroom kingdom and all the other good pixelated movies)
5: Neil Cicierega AKA Trapezoid (For creating the animutation)


If you can read this, you learned english language. Go, you.

James Farr - Xombie Series (hawt!!)

I can't think I any others right now, but those two popped in my mind.

Hey, Tom here. This is my list:

Super Flash Bros - Ok, thats me, but more importantly its Dim. With The Matrix Has You, Decline 1 + 2, Another Day 4, 5 & 6, FF7:ARB, and a few others I can't remember right now, hes had a busy year. Also, in terms of achievment, we've grown in popularity from off of the top 50 bookmarked artists to number 10 with just a few movies - something we're both really proud of.

Adam Phillips - cant be avoided really. If you worked for disney, you're going to be quite good at animating, and Prowlies just blew every other submission on NG out of the water in terms of animation. I have a feeling we havnt seen the last of Adam...

Rubberninja - this year saw a number of great movies coing from this guy - notably Theres Something About Halo and Van Helthing. We love his work, and he just keeps getting better, so he should certainly get a mention here

James Farr - Another unavoidable choice, he's brought us some great movies this year. Always stylish and smooth, his animation is some of the best on the site, not to mention great storytelling.

David Firth - If I'm getting a bit predictable in my choices, thats because they are obviously the right ones. When I first saw Salad Fingers, I was creeped out beyond belief, but as the series progressed, the humour behind it became more evident and I could see what David was trying to do. Oh, and he's from the UK too - bonus points there!

There are loads of others of course, names like Legendaryfrog, Knox, Dave (of RAB fame), Mousekliks and Cycon. But this is my personal top 5

Tom

1. Gel
Almost everyone has forgotten about him, but I think he's awesome. His Spin movie, and his submission in Newgrounds Versus Final are some of the best entries in the portal in my opinion. Not to mention his many other works.

2. Dan Paladin
nobody can forget this master behind Synj. His Graphics are amazing.

3. Adam Phillips for his great animating style, and creative storys. Always a great pick

4.Rodrigo
personally I have to include him for Mario Kart Underground. That has to be one of my favorite flashes and puts him up in the top 5.

5. there are a lot of other good flash artists out there... but it is hard for me to discriminate between them and choose one more that is above all the rest. maybe I love egg? well, I cant make a clear decision so this slot will remain blanck.

You can base your list on any number of factors, just be sure it is based on the accomplishments of this past year. It can include artists who only submitted one thing, or artists who submitted lots of stuff.

I won't say what this is for just yet... I also won't list some of the artists I have in mind. I want to gauge the response from users. Post your top five list to this thread!

Please excuse me if i get a few names wrong.

#1: RobH66- Fallen Angel Teaser is the most amazing looking flash I have ever seen.

#2: Adam Phillips- Prowlies at the River is great, and its maintained that #1 or #2 spot on top 50 for some time now.

#3: LegendaryFrog- I just think he's hilarious. The Matrix Has You is my favorite flash movie ever because its just actually laugh-out0loud. His work is the only that's made me do that.

#4: Mousekliks- One game and one movie, both on the top 50. Both amazing flashes, cept Balloon Duel is a bit on the easy side.

#5: Super Flash Bros.- Decline and Decline 2 are both great movies plus they helped on FF7: About Random Battles, which is also a great flash.

So there you have it folks.

Um, forget what i just said. I actually want to tie 5th place. With Super Flash Bros. and with RubberNinja because I just forgot about him but Van Helthing was hilarious.

Whoops, forgot to add comments:
1. David Firth-Salad Fingers is easily the best series of the year.
2. Adam Phillips-Two of the best flashes on this site in one year.
3. Knox- Merely for the amount of front-page flashes he puts out.
4. Mousekliks- Two flashes submitted, both classics.
5. Piconjo- How can you say he's un-noticable?
