I guess Tom will make his mind up on that later.. But let's just say that I would LOVE to see some stuff from you in there!

It's about time, now I can submit all of my eCards from Rainbow Animations, all 40+ of them. Since I can't get the email function to work from the server :) (hint hint!) Ah well, life is still good.

Response to eCards 2003-09-25 21:46:38

Response to eCards 2003-09-26 12:33:50


I was just wondering what the purpose of these cards are, we aren't awarded anything else besides the prize that Tom mentioned are we.

Your username and website will be displayed in accompaniment to the e-cards. The e-cards will be sent all around the world, so there's a good chance that you will get a lot of extra publicity for your site if you do make one and it gets displayed on NG.

Response to eCards 2003-09-26 14:05:38


Sounds cool...I want to make one...but...is there any guidelines on how to make one...beside that 300x235 size limit.

thanks

Response to eCards 2003-09-26 15:50:39


What would this 'prize' include?

Response to eCards 2003-09-26 19:19:03

If one of the cards is half as good as Sloth TV, then it'd be worth it. Can't wait to see them.

Are these animated cards ,because those would be fun to make.

Response to eCards 2003-09-27 12:01:05


Heh heh..this is too sweet! I wanted to submit mine to other sites but since NG wants ecards I can finally submit mine to you guys! I submitted a Christmas ecard with Santa yesterday...will I be told by e-mail if it is chosen? What is going to be the url for the ecard page anyways? =)

Response to eCards 2003-09-28 15:16:17

Sounds like you need a little help there...maybe you should ask Magna.

There's a link to it in Tom's very first post to this thread! Quote: "Check out this form to submit an eCard."

I went to http://www.newgrounds.com/ecard and they had a new thing started but when are they going to start to update it?

Response to eCards 2003-09-28 21:26:33


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!
i like i like alot sounds heaps good can not wait to try it out god stuff

Response to eCards 2003-09-29 15:06:34


ya i remember those crappy ecards and i hopethe new ones are better than the last ones

eCards

Response to eCards 2003-09-29 18:20:00


These cards have the potential to be HUGE, because, if you've noticed, there are so many people with so much enthusiasm, and they want to create something. A 2-3 minute flash movie, fully loaded with sound is too much for most flash artists to devote, but a short 20-30 second cartoon, or simple game, is exactly what most flash artists can and are willing to do, and successfully at that!

I would recommend making this section of newgrounds extremely user-friendly, if possible. It's too bad about the height/width requirement.

I saw some questions on this post about it. An eCard system: It's going to let strangers (your friends) come to newgrounds (probably from an auto-email), just to view your eCard, so there is dual exposure.

Competition from other flash artists won't be based on length, or cool effects anymore. Artists will have to become more witty, while keeping it shorter in length and filesize.

That's what I get from it.

Sounds great, Tom :)
