The Away3D Flash Engine is a nominee in the "code" category of the Flash Forward 2008 People's Choice Award! GO VOTE FOR IT so that Pete can enjoy a reward for his hard work on the Away 3D team.

Also, swiftstylerX is assembling a Dark Knight Collab!

El-Cid has won the IPAX scholarship! He will receive tuition money towards his master's degree at Texas A&M in visualization and the online character animation courses he is taking through Animation Mentor. It just goes to show he wasn't wasting his time with stuff like Bambee and Tank Hombres. Hard work pays off!

citricsquid has recommended everyone ceck out kiva.org, a site that lets you lend money to entrepreneurs in developing countries. They don't guarentee a return on your money, but the majority of participants do pay back the loan. Citricsquid adds, "I've just donated $25 to Lek Seoy, to help his drum making business and I think Newgrounds should too. It's a very small amount in comparison to what it can do for these people."

Spite-skater made a nifty stencil of Steve from Tankmen.

We've finally announced the Castle Crashers release date! It will be hitting Xbox 360 Live Arcade on Wednesday, August 27th, two days before the Penny Arcade Expo.

THANK YOU to everyone who came out to our Behemoth / Newgrounds booth at Comic-Con! It was the biggest turnout of NG artists to-date, resulting in a really surreal (and cool) after-party. Luis is putting together a page of pictures, so I'll hold off on coverage until those are on-line. Until then, enjoy this picture of Egoraptor hugging RTIL. Maybe we CAN all get along!

I wish I went to comic con. I live in California, but no where near San Diego :(


Why is it that a man can't hold another man's scrotum in the palm of his hand (as an act of friendship) without risking being called a member of the homosexual community?

Do you have any sort of estimate on the amount of MS Points it's gonna set me back? I've got 200 saved which won't buy me anything, but are we talking, like, 1000, 2000, 3?

Hopefully I'll be buying this on my housemate's 360.

How much do you get paid each time someone buys Castle Crashers?

Very cool.
Thank you for the news Tom.

If only I could actually go to Comic-Con. :(

On another note, in that picture, what's with the semi-drunk looking guy in the back with the giant hickey on his neck?

That is just like... 'wow'. Two of the most powerful artists on this site with extremely different believes and styles, just simply hugging. This is ground shattering.

I'm not paying 3k, that's £25.50!, or $37.50.

2000 is too much as well. That's £17, or $25.
