Luis has posted pictures from Comic-Con!

Also check out the list of RadicalWrongDoer posts about their experience. AniGen wrote up some especially good coverage about his experience. NOTE: John (fellow Behemoth co-founder) organized the party so thank HIM! And the party really was magical, I gotta say... NG is a cool crowd.

Jimtopia also provided a day-by-day breakdown, and I just finally gave him a series page.

I'll stop talking about Comic-Con and move on to this nice PM I got from DeuceNine:

"I don't ever remember a point in my life where I struggled to know what to do with my future (except for when I wanted to be an astronaut, then a pilot, then a black ninja, then a white ninja, then Goku, then a motorcycle, then a black ninja...). Anyway, while everyone around me took their different paths into inevitably dull horizons (into darkness with broadness that not even a dictionary can describe, i.e. "Business" and "Marketing"), I am more than confident that I have a sure path for me. I have Newgrounds to thank for that. I made my first animation, Final Fantasy Day Care, when I was 15, and it took off from there. Newgrounds has given aspiring artists a home where we can showcase our work so we can teach each other and learn from others. As you know, animation can be hard work , especially if its a solo project, and Newgrounds has given us a place where we can get the views we deserve. I am now 19 and enrolled at Savannah College of Arts and Design with an animation major and a storyboarding minor. I have showed my animations to animation professors and people at art school boards, granting me a generous scholarship for the works I proudly make for the Newgrounds community. Today I released my first animation, Interplanetary Exchange Student, since being at college. Its done a little half and half: half still at high school, and half done while at college. I hope it shows improvement, seeing as how I'm afraid to watch my old stuff hahaha... it's not funny actually, I have literally cringed...

Newgrounds has been a friend to me for years now. We're all moving on to greater things now; I have a whole life ahead of me to shape as I please, and I heard you guys just came back from Comic-Con (I also heard that you guys didn't invite me... I enjoy fun occasionally, too...). For whatever successes I may have in my future, I will always have Newgrounds to thank for that. I watch the content on Newgrounds and I find it amazing that some of the things done by our generation can sometimes compete in quality with professional works. I have never seen anything like it. Thanks Newgrounds, for starting the revolution and continue inspiring young animators, programmers, and whatever else."

Awe, thanks!!!

Monthly voting for Best of July starts tomorrow!

You're all surprisingly good looking, and yes I said surprisingly =p. I really don't live that far away from Comic con... less than like an hour away in fact and I have a couple of friends who know people in the area where I could have crashed.... but sadly I'm having to save up all my cash for Blizzcon.

Maybe next year.

Wow, I'll have to read that tomorrow, because it's huge! That means they loved it.

Well deserved, his last movie is great.

Tom, simply put; you provided a site where new artists can showcase flash animation/games to an audience of a larger size, which would appear unfeasible a decade ago.

For animators alike such as Jimtopia and other NG artists, they must feel in someway small or large, Newgrounds being a contribution to their ongoing animation career/interest. Heh, perhaps you got a smile from his pm.
