That was fucking gay.

This redesign sure is taking a lot of time.
It better be good.

Thats pretty swanky, Do you have NumaGrounds or Newgrounds Presented By mcdonalds?
Sadly, I don't. I would have if I was around back then.

I wouldn't host the screenshots on Imageshack. They only allow so much bandwidth per image then Pooof! Its gone forever. If your serious about archiving it use Photobucket.

Unblock Newgrounds at school or work.

I'll do that, once the image gets deleted.

I always have backups

My site is down... and it'll stay down until I do something about it... :3

Orange Navbar is a lot better, though I didn't mind the new header.

I can forgive the bad joke, just spend lots of time next year, i mean, the new layout will be (BETTER BE) out by then and i assume that'll be the only one for the next 2 or so years (like the other two i've seen) so come on, throw heads together and come up with something brilliant, we loved Numagrounds, and we loved when you were bought out by Micky D's, we know you guys can make an epic April Fool's joke

Orange is way better than black in my opinion.

The color match with everything is great-looking, and at least it ain't depressing...

You just made the navigation bar design a little too sexy. It was all shiny and rounded looking, like a PS3.

Orange and black have been my favorite colors for my entire life, and i have to say that the black buttons looked much more badass than the orange one's now.

If the rest of the site followed the trend of black/white, I feel that it would give it one of those cheap-freeweb-sort-of-don't-care sort of looks.

Yeah I liked the mirror-effect on the logo too!
I'm torn between the two different nav-bars.
They both look nice. So same to me.

I just think Newgrounds is a bit too cluttered.
That's the main drawback of this site.
Clutter clutter clutter, EVERYWHERE!
But is sure is the best-looking website
around that focuses on Flash games
the black navbar did give it a smoother,
cleaner and more mature feel though, hmm.

It would also be nice to make your profile
look like you want to, not just a pic and
then some ugliness all over the rest of
your profile.

Was it as much a joke or more to actually
see what people thought of some changes
on the site?

For some reason, almost every time they change the banner, I have to clear my cache for the new one to show and on April Fools Days, I was extremely busy so I didn't really get see what they did besides the already done last year "everyone is an Admin" joke. The orange buttons look a lot better.

So when is the actual New layout coming?

What's really sad is that I redesigned the header to look like a generic web 2.0 header, but people actually liked it more than the regular header, so now we need to debate black buttons amongst ourselves. I guess there's a reason why the web 2.0 trends exist.

The gradient on the orange buttons is nice, whereas the black buttons looked kinda flat.
Now, black buttons with a gradient to give them a sheen effect...that would be really good.
But whatever. I'm not terribly fussy about that sort of thing myself.

Though i do think Tagalog would look really good on those buttons for a day or even for just
an hour or two.

Why is everyone fauning over the balck bars, they were not that good. They looked almost the same and it did not fit with NG AT ALL!!!! You only think it's cool because it is different and you are used to the old ones. Believe me ina wekk or two (maybe a month) it will lose it's newness and you'll all realise how stupid the header is and how it seems completely different then what newgrounds is like.
