eCards

[TomFulp]

Hey, remember those eCards we used to have on Newgrounds? The crappy CGI script failed whenever we switched servers, and for years we never bothered bringing it back.

Until now! James has programmed a new eCard system from the ground up, complete with a submission system, so you can submit your own! Check out this form to submit an eCard. The size requirements are a strict width=300 and height=235. You will be fully credited for your card, so it's a nice way to get some extra publicity!

Holiday cards are always appreciated - Halloween, Thanksgiving or Christmas for example. Or, you could make something completely weird! To start things off with a bang, we will award a prize-pak to the best eCard to be submitted by the end of October!

Good luck!

hmm, no i don't recall e-cards. Still, sounds awesome!

When you say 'used to', how long ago are we talking about. Sounds like a cool idea anyway.

Been looking forward to some nice Halloween-themed flashes.

eCards would be the perfect thing.

Looking forward to them.

As early back as '98/'99. I think they were last modified in 2001.

I see, and how many am i limited to submit?

[liljim]

As many as you want, but you can't have more than 2 unvalidated ones at any one time. So, if you submit 2, wait a while before submitting more.

How may year back were the e-cards on NG, Tom? Sounds like another cool idea.

You wouldn't. You would spend your life in a fetal postition and die from starvation.

[Afro-Ninja]

The prize pack is mine :)

Umm will we be able to see the ones submitted for competition? Or will there just be a big page with all of them on it?

[CaptainBob]

Yeah I remember the old cards...my favorite was the "sorry our kid went into a killing ramage and killed your kid" card. Are you going to bring the old ones back, create new ones, or rely completely on user-submitted cards?

[Death-Slammer]

So where do we go to view, and potentially send theses E-cards, they sound cool, a Madness Haloween one, or Maybe a Very Pico X-mas

[EvilZak]

You forgot to tell us one eensy teensy minor detail.

What in the name of cocksucking ducks is an "eCard"?

[jonthomson]

Heh, I vaguely remember them from way back in the day. Think I used a couple actually. Sounds like a good idea!

[lightning]

and can we all ready find them on the site or are they all still in the making??

[Ozcar]

I'm going to make some e-cards :)

Sounds great :D

[Nameless88]

How soon will these new ecards be availible?

[Mooey]

[Steve84]

I seem to be having trouble finding the form.

Would something like this (cropped to the proper size)
be appropriate?

Hehe - sometimes when you're looking too hard for something, you miss the obvious. Or at least I do...
