For the love of God, please try another browser - Chrome or FireFox are both free and both run on Windows and Macs. Unless you are running on a business or school computer where you can't change the browser, these two are safe and easy to install. Internet Exploder is notorious for not fully supporting the nuances of HTML5, CSS3 and even some javascript functionality. You can have multiple browsers on your machine, so it's not like you'd lose IE. In fact, if you install either one of those other browsers, they will import all your favorites and links and (most) cookies so you won't have to start from scratch.

Try a different browser and see the difference - you won't be disappointed!

Super bummed I didn't make it into the DBZ collab, but whatever.

Big ups for the NG update. @TomFulp, will the sidebars of the userpages have the wall art like other sections of the site? It looks really barren. If you've already answered this, feel free to ignore my post.

I do have Firefox on my computer but my antivirus program doesn't seem to work on it properly. Every time I use it my computer ends up having to deal with three or more different malware attacks and since I don't know how to fix the problem I just stick to what I know. The situation isn't ideal but it is at least tolerable. I don't use Chrome because Google owns enough of my soul as it is and I don't want to give them a majority share in it.

Dear God please put it back.

Can you change it back or can we find a compromise? The tiny black bar and no skeumorphism in the front ehhh

Having an option to go back to the old design is a good idea, that I mentioned already. I am still waiting to here the answer.

For now I’ll say user page skins have been an ongoing possibility but they are lower priority than a bunch of other updates.

How come the notifications don't show the most recent activity first in the new notification feed? I keep having to go to the old layout to find out recent activity, i have this long ass friend request feed always on top and i cant minimize or hide it.

This way encourages you to make a decision on each one but we probably could do this better... If each request was chronological, people could still visit their friends page to view all pending requests in one place... Making note.

God, I have no idea what I'm doing now. Also, @TomFulp, seems I can't accept friend requests from my feed, either. Weird.

Also can't tell what my audio award is -- no rollover text. That's kind of annoying, since I didn't even know I had an audio award LOL.

I find that the default/light-orange link text is the only one that has the proper contrast between clicked and un-clicked links.

The rest of the colors just look too similar.

Yeah I miss those too! Everything was so simple with Flash (and still is)... though HTML5 seems like the one way you can do similar things now, just requires a little more work.

Hopefully a solution's come up before then, like a custom plugin to keep support, or functionality built into the site like a Flash Player via JS... considering how much awesome stuff there's still out there I really hope some knowledgeable people come up with something that works! I know a few projects like that are in the works , but so far there doesn't seem to be one that has it all figured...

For a moment there I thought new profiles were getting an initial P-Bot post on them to highlight some of the site features; introduce users to what they could do! XD Would've been cool, but probably pretty messy with all unused profiles spouting the same message... an introductory PM would be awesome though.

Great job boys, some slick stuff you got here.
I feel like this is a great step forward, proud of you.


Well it's certainly going to take some getting used to... but with that said, I've still found the site very easy on the eyes and the new scheme looks polished. Haven't struggled to find anything. As a whole it's good, it's a pretty drastic change from the design I've gotten used to over the years but the internet has changed since Newgrounds was at its height in the 2000s. Already growing to like it.

Lookin' pretty good. Got a few things missing here and there, and a few kinks, obviously, but all in good time.

Can't wait to watch the new collab.


[INSERT SMARMY TEXT HERE]


It's looking a lot more user-friendly and more inviting to potential newcomers. Awesome job, @PsychoGoldfish and Tom!

EDIT: A small graphical edit I did notice was to make the Upload buttons follow the same personalized color schemes. I do understand that the "rainbow" colors are still relevant on the front page (for now?), but looking at the very muted, seemingly random colors when clicking the upload button, made me think this could be a cool direction to head towards. Just a thought.

Which website would you like to start with first? Are you talking about YouTube or Twitter?

Top Medal points user list. I am number 12

One more thing I noticed: medals on medals page/profile don't seem to match for me. Is the total earned on the main page maybe a count with deleted ones included somehow...? Or is this the real count, and the other one lacking? The first count (by the trophy info) shows 8,201, yet in the medals section it's 7,748.

If that really does account for deleted ones as well that'd be awesome though, it'd be great to have them listed even if they don't count for points, just a bit confusing with two different numbers and no differentiation thereof!

Another thing that's bugging me a bit: in the 'from your favorites' feed there's no direct link to a newspost. Responding directly via the feed's a cool finesse, but sometimes you want to link to it, save it for later or just open it up and see it in its own context. Maybe the title could link to the post? Or the username link in these cases be a direct post link instead of one just to that users profile?

Also having the response box pop-up over the message in the feed makes it hard to respond as you're reading.

They definitely still exist but don't seem to be listed right now. Hopefully that's coming back too...

That post was referring to Soundcloud, but any one place is a good place to fetch some more users from. :)
