Hey I'm a new user, I just have a quick question, black and white art is okay right? I don't want it to be confused for line art or sketches, I just have trouble with color so I really don't use it.

Thanks! I just got concerned that other artists would become confused or assume it was sketches.
I've heard a lot about you and I'm really glad I'm joining the site!

I've never felt so welcomed to a site before! I didn't use Tumblr much but where I do post hasn't been changing for the better. And I'll be honest, comparing it to here makes me see that it may be time to move on. haha
Thank you to the community for accepting us! ♥

Gotta say, as a non-artist in this situation, seeing such a classic, yet still chill website like Newgrounds get a second wind is really goddamn great to see.

Hello! Bara/gay art creator here! I'm happy to be joining this community and to have a place where I can post NSFW artwork.

The community here seems pretty chill as well, which I like, plus it's nice to have another community to go after Tumblr decided to implode.

Sorry in advance for any grammar mistakes I make, English isn't my first language and sometimes I mentally switch to another syntax.

Response to Welcome, 2nd Wave of New Artists! 2018-12-04 17:08:41


Apparently Tumblr doesn't know the whole purpose of the internet.

Newgrounds is the best place for everything related to art :D

Long live Newgrounds


I'm thankful to the way NG seems to have opened their arms to us, especially the sassy Twitter posts on the matter!
Looking forwards to sharing my nsfw contributions here! (Once I wrap my head around scouting...).

Welcome to everyone to this site!

Even if I'm not even 1 month old in this site, it's awesome to see more people coming here.
Have a good time, everyone! :D


This is the signature.

Nothing fancy. Yup.

I'd really like to see and option to combine your art into separate folders or categories because my mix of traditional inkwork, digital NSFW art and digital innocent sci-fi/fantasy stuff makes my gallery look annoyingly eclectic and inconsistent.
Also, an option to upload multiple images in one entry for comics and pieces with alt versions.

Response to Welcome, 2nd Wave of New Artists! 2018-12-04 18:55:47


Hopefully i can get new followers and meet new people here

Why did I know what song it was before I clicked on it?


I'm just here because I like being here.

Response to Welcome, 2nd Wave of New Artists! 2018-12-04 19:05:07


I made an account here nearly four years ago, but don't let that fool you. I haven't touched this account since until yesterday. Since Tumblr is going the way it is I think I should actually use my Newgrounds account and see what I can do with it. Hopefully, this is a good idea.

Been lurking in and out of here since back when Stamper was active. Made a new account since it's been too long . I heard about the resurgence from some friends who migrated here from tumblr. Thanks for all your hard work NG and welcome people both new and old. Also, hi Chapman Bros.

Response to Welcome, 2nd Wave of New Artists! 2018-12-04 20:55:36


I'm really worried about how well people will respond to this with NG's servers being so bogged down by it right now.
They're gonna think it doesn't have the steam to handle so much traffic, which...I hope is not the case. lol
Every other time I try to get on here I'm getting "504 Bad Gateway" errors, I assume due to the traffic & everything.
Gotta say, tumblr dropping the ball is making this a really exciting time. :b


Just some dork who's loved NG since 2004, yet isn't very artistic himself. You should check out my massive favorites lists.

With the influx of new artists, NG may have a reason to refine how the Art Portal works with features like that.
I hope that sort of thing, plus maybe the option of displaying artwork differently like, with a title or smaller icons, more per page, etc, start getting considered... but at least there's the rating sorting options to use for now. Nobody has to see the M & A stuff unless they want.

Yeah I'm curious about the scouting system too. How does this work?
If no one sees my art how does it eventually get scouted by someone? lol

Response to Welcome, 2nd Wave of New Artists! 2018-12-04 21:29:34


I've had an account here for a while but never used it, not even to favorite things, I think... Now I'm posting art here and such and I, like others, are curious about the scout stuff.

I've already had someone do it but I have no idea what it means or anything. lmao

Thank you for being an open space for us artists <3
