The Newgrounds Book Pdf (help Out!) 2008-06-18 23:11:35 Reply

Hey everyone. I have an interesting project idea.... The Newgrounds Book. This would be in a .pdf format, and would be many, many pages long. It would cover everything- memes, themes, different logos, notable Flash and audio submissions, notable Flash and audio authors, funny or good topics, changes over the years, staff bios, change of staff, notable Newgrounds members, events, literature, and more.

Basically everything you can think of. I think that it would be an interesting project to say the least, and it'd be a great way to chronicle Newgrounds past and present. (Which'd be past in a few years anyhow) Everyone can help out with it. Helping basically includes making graphics for it, and finding and organizing all of this info. Once done, we can put all of it to a many-paged .pdf. What we do with it from there is unknown. We could print it and make it into a book, or we can somehow get it on Newgrounds itself.

I would need many people to help me out. Whether this project gets off the ground is dependent on the number of helpers.

So, who likes the idea?

I'd love to hear from you. :3 | E-Mail: evansweeney@gmx.com | AIM: EvantheDeku | Oh dear, Dekuboy is back..

Try taking this up with the Procastonation Guild.


Sarcasm.

The Procastonation Guild? I'm sure we'd get far with them...

At that rate, it'd take decades....

Perhaps we could get a mod or an admin to help out as well... nobody would be better than Tom.

Yeah... that would totally work. With the Procrastination guild and the ten seconds Tom could spare backing it, what could possibly go wrong!


If you don't like my poetry, scroll down the page a bit. It gets better.

I don't trust that.

Anyways, you could possibly ask people if they want to be on the last page. Like their name. But there would have to be a size limit. First come first serve (maybe a set post count so new members that are going to leave in a couple of days/weeks wouldn't get in it.) It could give a glimpse into some of the users from that time. I think this is a great idea.

That's a good idea. We just need some more publicity...
