Everything is gone. Something went wrong with my computer and I lost everything; all my files, all my programs. My last backup was from a year ago. I was worried about finishing on time as it was but now it's going to be even harder, especially with my computer off for repairs for the next couple weeks. I really don't want to give up on this though. I think what I'm going to have to do is do it traditionally, storyboard style. It's all I can manage, I just hope it'll be enough.

I guess I had to learn to back up my computer frequently the hard way.

oh no! i yet not started!
i need to do some stupid university lesson.

What file type were your icons? I think I read somewhere .png aren't uploading so if you guys were using png's maybe it's that.

It was a jpeg

Is there anyway to see the brackets from last year? If so what is the link?

I included the word shart in the beginning of my cartoon; that doesn't warrant an M rating, right? Can I leave it like that?

I'll be honest that did bring back some memories.

I got something special.
Let see if I can do it up until then.

I'll kiss you if you finish yours!

One of the perks available for donating $100 to the contest was "automatic entry into the open round" (with a limit of 4) - Rezeile was the only one to claim this perk from donating.

oh man, i really enjoyed the video! but doesn't the song disqualify you because it's copywrited? i really hope not, because this could totally win.

No, see I guess no one told you. I AM Weird Al Yankovic

yes

A little screen cap of the fbf scene I'm doing. This thing is taking forever. Hope I can finish today so I can actually get around to working on the other 2 scenes.

If you don't have time to finish your entry, just upload it to the Dumping Grounds and link it here!!

5 Days Remain.

Been reviewing the entries. It surprises me that this seemed to have stumped a few of you. I wish I could actually draw and animate, because when I saw the theme for this opening round, ideas just flooded my head. However, I am but a lowly writer.

I'm more than halfway done with my entry. Hopefully I can get it done before the date...

almost done with all the keyframes, then I can inbetween and color the animations. I'll be cutting it close, but Im hoping to finish on time

I'm going to go ahead and publish this thing now:

http://newgrounds.com/portal/view/615906

How's everyone else's entries coming along?

Hello. I'm publishing mine now! I also included a picture of what I looked like when I completed my entry after a month with little sleep. (By the way, if anyone could help with the icon problem, that would be super.)

Wow! I loved this! Since I'm not a judge in this I can gladly say... BEST ENTRY in the Open Round so far!

Hi, I'm making an animation as well. I'm not even consider myself a good animator, so expect something mediocre-bad.
Also there is a probability that I'm going to need voice actors, still don't know because that would be my first time using voices and I'm scared :(

I included an image preview. Hope nobody else uses spiders.

Just over 3 Days remain!

So, unfortunately I will not be able to finish my entry because my laptop is basically dead, and it's not going to get fixed any time soon. So I leave with this and hope it's enough to make it into the competition.

Wow! Three days! I have a question though, I uploaded mine, and it's still under judgement (for 24 hours now, so I'm a bit worried), does it have to be passed judgment in order to be entered or am I fine just right now?
