Similarly, if blogs retained full image resolution and let you view images fullscreen, they would do a lot of what people have been wanting in the Art Portal... As each feature becomes more robust, it all sort of converges. The more I think about it the more my sanity slips away.


You can embed movies from the Movies Portal into your blog post so, in theory, if art posts receive the full text editor, it might be possible to embed a full interactive Flash toy just underneath the panel of a comic.

At some point down the road we'll have to consider the option of Comics getting a unique tab on user pages, vs lumping them in with the other art categories under the Art tab.


Alright! Webcomics Wave~ The plans are looking good, @TomFulp and @PsychoGoldfish. I really like the ability to mark certain pages different ratings. This is awesome since the contest I've been teasing for a while will be starting NEXT WEEK, and since I'm posting in this topic, I think y'all know what topic might be. ;D


Are you going to have a way to allow people to easily link to the next and previous chapters? Or is that something we'll have to do in the comment section for now? Or just link to a playlist?


@Dungeonation I know! It's coming! It's coming! :D

Thank you Tom for all the hard work you and the team put into maintaining the site. Its great to be a part of a website that gives its users what they actually want, and not what some corpo thinks will nickle and dime them the hardest.


@PsychoGoldfish as a fellow leftist, I trust you're considering the horrible bandwidth of the working class in flyover country and supporting in-order pre-loading or lazy loading. Something to help the poors.


Please don't have the more reading friendly layouts be like some terrible image based version of the "The Cask of Amontillado." For the love of God, Montresor!

This is the beginning of a new age.


See though, that means I need to actually make my stupid comics and upload them. I always knew Newgrounds was a curse.

it would be amazing if, for collabs, the piece would be avaliable for every integrant, like, person A and person B collabed, now you can see that collab in both person's art portal like if it was a normal post

In particular, the Art Portal will support true multi-image and allow for multi-author. This opens up the potential for all sorts of art collabs or individual multi-art projects.

When uploading multiple images, you will have three display options to choose from:

Inline - This will stack your images vertically, with space between them.

Strip - This will stack your images vertically, with no space between them. Ideal for vertical comics where seamless transitions between images is preferred.

Gallery - This will display your images one at a time in a slideshow format, ideal for large image sets or comics where you prefer turning the page to get to the next panel.

Multi-image will support up to 10 images for regular accounts and up to 30 for Supporters.

As far as collaborative projects, here are two examples that could make use of the multi-author credits:

https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/arpeggion/marvel-vs-capcom-collab
https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/kor0kke/happy-2nd-fnf-anniversary-1

With multi-image, you could try things like making a multi-panel comic where each panel is by a different artist. Or create a vertical stack of images based on a common theme, like a skyscraper or a hole that goes deep underground.

This system will also be more ideal for image variants and it will be expected that variants share the same project as the original image. Currently people tend to publish variants as multiple standalone pieces to maintain full resolution; that won’t be necessary anymore. You will also have the option to rate (E,T,M,A) the individual pieces in your project, otherwise they will default to the project-level rating.

Hope everyone enjoys the update when it arrives, it's been a long time coming!

If each chapter is its own art project, the best move there would be to put them in a playlist, when the next round of playlist updates rolls out, you'll be able to make it the official series page and the chapters (art view page) will have links back to the series page.


There's some more exciting stuff we'll be able to do once all this stuff is done.

I can't wait to upload comics on here again using the strip layout. Plus the gallery option will be awesome for my sketches and stuff. I'm excited! It's been a while since I saw a cool feature like this added to the site!

This is a really good idea! I can see this site getting a lot of newfound attention as a webcomics hosting platform in the future. Also really cool that I can potentially make variants now.
