Didn't know you were gone. Welcome back.
Hope you enjoyed yourself.


I'm not stupid. I just lack the cognitive capacity to understand or apply what I've learned.

I'm not gullible. I just know that no one would tell me anything but the truth.

Ah, so that's what that was. I noticed it a few weeks ago, but never said anything.

Do they just leave the site because they didn't find something that appealed to them? Or do they just look elsewhere on the site? I really need to get more into analytics. What I really want, though, is a general shift in the web browsing public. People need to stop looking for sexy and/or familiar and take a lot more interest in discovering new things. We already have a lot of great users here on NG who love to look under rocks and see what's crawling underneath, I just want MORE of that. There's so much awesome stuff on the site that is just slipping by every day.

Critics, fans, and end-users have been making this statement about popular culture since the dawn of time. I'm pretty sure there's nothing you can do about it. It's just human nature. I suggest you stick to 2 or 3 crowd-pleasers and a slew of underdogs each day. Ideally stuff that has been pushed off the Portal page.

But don't feel like it's your responsibility to somehow make the masses have better taste. You can't do it, it won't work. All you can do is hand out exposure to the movies you feel deserve it. If one or two cheap shots per day helps further this goal by boosting overall front-page attendance, well, that's your call.

If anyone wants some sexy HD footage, look no further ;) Looking great so far. If you ever see this tom, what do you do your art work in program wise?

This will look outstanding on a HD Screen.

I think i know how to fix this, put a button on the home page that picks a random movie from a list of front page quality movies. people will click it not knowing what they are going to get. It could even be programed to balance out the numbers of views for each submission :P

Welcome back Tom. Sounds like it was fun!

But really, look exactly like comic-con. Man, too many game conventions in the summer. What happened to taking it as a vacation? *grumbles* stupid E3 being closed to the public....


I need a better sig...banners are just not my thing.

Welcome back Mr.Fulp

I have a complaint,one fucking complaint about the frontpage

RadioTubeClock has made a movie called Advanced Robotics and submitted it,it got front page for less than a few hours during the night giving it a crappy exposure then it got replaced by D4ilytoons #331(which wasen't so great of a flash).Also Sonic:Nazo Unleashed PT3,one of the most awaited flashes in NG alphas,got submitted a week ago,it didn't get front page while it got 2nd best of the week(Blockhead:Episode 10 did got 1st) and daily feature.

I think some major things should be done about front page,because it seems all lame flash makers like IllWillPress(make lame gothic hentai to make all 12 years old vote 5) get front page easily while some worthy flashes dosen't even get it for one day.

yo, whenz da review data base gonna get linked back up, i have tried to check my reviews and i just anchors me to the top of the page, sup with dat?

Response to Back from PAX! 2007-08-30 20:14:33


I agree with you actually, lots of people just come here and look for either something with boobs, or also just stuff really popular, and nobody ever gives the little guy a chance. Myself i usually look for movies with action or a good story, lately i've looked for those and have skipped much... actually i recall looking at the new aladdin 3510 movie and saying "eh ill bet its ok, ill watch it some other time" but .. wel that was a mistake now wasnt it :P

so yeah peoples, dont watch everything on front page, but look at at least 2 or 3? i do now :D

Response to Back from PAX! 2007-08-30 21:17:37


To Answer Your Question Tom, Before I Really Got Into Newgrounds, I Would Just Check The Frontpage, And If I Did Not See Anything Of Interest(Awesome Games, Funny Videos, Etc). I Would Move On To Other Sites.
But Now I Hardly Ever Look At Other Sites, Newgrounds Is Like My Home, Whenever Im Not Doing Anything, I Get On Newgrounds.

I wish i could go to a giant game expo, we did have one in Australia but it wasn't really much. Though we were the first to try out the Wii before release :D
