New slogan is sweet but You might wanna change the way the voting system looks (not the numbers, example dont change it one through 10, just make the pictures different, maybe a new mascot for the voting system) the preloaders, the look of the portal, NG mag, anyway yeah, it's awesome and can't wait for the Revolutionized site

Newgrounds-
Everything,
By everyone.

i kinda agree wit this guy, if your gonna change the header, then you probably should change the look of everything, i just dont like the slogan, its way to boring

People don't always think I'm funny yet I always seem to think I'm hilarious. That's why I go on the internet. To legitimately talk to myself.

I agree with you, Tommy boy, "The Problems of the Future, Today!" sounds really cool and edgy, but it doesn't really tell the public what the site really is about. Keep this new one.

If you were paying attention, the header is the first of some (if not many) changes.

Watchoo' talkin' 'bout Grace? Comma splices only occur when two independant clauses are seperated by a comma without the use of a coordinating conjunction. Like so: Everything by everyone, all the flash you could ever want. Such a sentence could be corrected by adding an 'and' after the comma, or by substituting the comma for a semicolon. I'm not saying the grammar of the new slogan is without fault, the comma used is entirely superfluous, I'm only saying Tom is not guilty of the egregious crime of using a comma splice.

when I saw the PSP page design I immediately thought "Hey, this is what all of NG should look like!".

About the slogan, I'm not in love with it, but like you I wish NG would get rid off all the negative energy (if I could decide, I'd make the design a lot brighter, maybe even white, and I'd even reconsider the tank), and I think a new slogan is a good step.

I agree to alot in this post.

Keep the good work up.

I'm still a big fan of The Problems of the Future... Today!. It just sounded cooler. Everything by Everone just isn't very imaginative.
The Problems of the Future... Today! was what NG really is about... not Everything . Face it Tom, 98% of NG traffic goes to the Portal alone, which is a shame (the Audio Portal is quite fun), but true.

How about this slogan, I tried to combine the old one with the new, but mine could use some work.
"Newgrounds- The End All Be All, By All"

I like the new slogan, but that won't stop me from posting a suggestion!
How about "Countless artists, one community"
or "A bit less stank than Oldgrounds"
or "Bitches gotta ride, pimps gotta fly"
or "Goddam, this site is very gray"
or "Tanks for visiting. Ha. Ha. Ha."
or "B"
or "We've got lime disease!"
or (seriously now) "Here, the future is. Hmm?"

The old one was way better, and I usually like change. But the old one was so...unique. This one sounds like a fucking insurance company or something.

Bleh.

so just because some teens are angsty, means they dont have a life?

I like the new look, but the slogan...i think could do better it just seems a little un creative. It doesnt feel "Newgroundy" if i say so my self. over all the designs we'v been changing to in the past years i find this to be the best so far. Expect yeah the buttons are a little to big but it works better for slower computers.

But i think what you should actualy do is find the best slogans people can come up with letting them submit them to you in a topic, and set a top 10 then pick out of the top 10 then you can say its

"Everything, by everyone" Because technicaly. Not all people animate (i cant i suck at learning on my own) so everything isent really by everyone lol.

But if you think about it its kinda lacking the old Newgrounds feeling "The problems of the future today" suits us. If anything should be along the lines of something creative because flash and music is all about useing creativity and instead of having it like "Teenagish" it could be something along the lines like..."Lifes Collage,Staring you" or "Pieced Together By Problems" i donno, i just dont like it that much but i guess im just a hipicrit.

While I always had a bit of a problem with the original slogan of Newgrounds - it sounded too... apocalyptic. Still, it was bold. BOLD is the thing that, I think, best defines Newgrounds - even more so than the fact that it's got just about everything by just about everyone. The new slogan, while shorter and nicer, doesn't have that bold feeling to it. I realize that you wanted to take away the "angsty" feel of the site and make it more of a "creative community" than a... well, you get the idea. I, alas, didn't find Newgrounds until a couple years ago, so I never saw what it originally was like.

While I DO think that the slogan should be changed to something else, I think that "Everything, by Everyone" is a little too weak. It needs (in my opinion) to be something bold and imposing, but still indicative of what this site actually is. I think that the original slogan should actually be truncated to something like "The Future, Today!" It's short, sweet, and moderately bold, with an almost playful feel to it at the same time. It doesn't shine a negative light on the site while still hearkening back to the original slogan as well. However, I have a feeling that something that simple has probably already been used before.

I'm concerned with how Newgrounds seems to be drifting away from its roots, though. A friend of mine commented on how the site seems to be going corporate or something. "The beginning of the end," he called it. I like the idea that Newgrounds is moving towards becoming cleaner and more streamlined, both in appearance and operation. I know that the actual content of the site isn't going to change, but the theme of the site is being drastically changed from a host of radically-minded people to the web's largest showcase of animation talent. In that sense, the change is good. Newgrounds shouldn't completely forsake its past, however.
Damn, I type too much.

I'd much rather be optimistic and wrong than pessimistic and right.

I agree... NG needs a stronger, yet more original slogan... Hope someone close to Tom can think about one that fits the "kick-ass standards" that NG deserves.
