Soulja Boy <3 animating & Luis rox. 2007-10-11 18:14:26 Reply

For the sake of making last month's prize winners feel like crap (ok, and because he's a really great guy), Luis has asked that half of his prize money to go towards the American Cancer Society's fight against breast cancer, on behalf of the Newgrounds community. I couldn't possibly tolerate Luis being more generous than Newgrounds.com Incorporated, so I upped the total to $500 and made the donation via this form. You can do it too! No pressure, though. No one is JUDGING YOU.

Be sure to check out some of the great new games on the site this week! And yeah, I now have SEVERAL user icons for when I post on the front page - this prevents visitors from being greeted by three duplicate pictures of me when they come to the site. This might be worse, though.

Soulja-Boy, who has gone on to become a huge music sensation all over the MTVs, had this to say in a recent interview:

"after I finish my career, I'm trying to go back to do my first career that I was trying to accomplish. I want to be a computer animator, and I still got that dream, that's why I'm trying to bring that into my music."

You know what this means? It means that Flash Artist > Famous Hip Hop Star. Remember those words next time you're struggling to finish a big animation!

Also don't miss the current art contest and Halloween competition. Happy Thursday!


This is the game JohnnyUtah and I have been working on.

Man Tom Fulp, you're a real model citizen. I think we should all look up to you.

That was very nice of Luis.

And yes, Newgrounds has been getting some very great games recently.

Portals I thought was very original. Was portals an actual video game? If it was, I don't really care. The game still rocks.

YOOOOOOOUUUUU!

That's Soulja Boy's big song or "catchphrase." I think it's really called "Crank That (Soulja Boy)"

But it's nice to know that these modern MTV rats think about the future. Knowing they probably have none (Britney Spears).

Have to say that this makes my respect for the guy go up a lot. From 0 to some arbitrary number higher than 0.

Wow, Luis, that was the nicest thing i´ve ever seen a NGer do. Luis really is a great guy. Every post i see of his is always nice and helpful - NG needs more people like you Luis, and thanks for giving NG a good name. It´s just a shame some people here would rather post a quick ´first´ to get the first post on a news topic than give you recognition for what you have done.

I liked them when i saw them, but i think that style messes with the way the original one is drawn... is this one still going to be used for frontpage posts or only for submissions and userpage news?
its just a small detail tho, so no big deal. i find it a BIT confusing, you think its different people posting news for like the first second, then you realize its the same guy : P

BTW, for anyone who doesn't know what "Superman Dat Hoe" refers to in the Soulja-Boy song, go check out the definition on Urban Dictionary.

Half ? What a bastard.

No one is JUDGING YOU.

No worries, I don`t give a shit :3

Just joking, Luis is a total stud for doing that awesome donation, and if I can I will also :3
