does it still hold up today?
>>150514318While having much less total reach than something like twitter (or even deviantart), I feel like each view is worth much more than the other platforms
>>150514318Yeah i still use it to look up art and shit
>>150514318It gets worse with every update
>>150514318I fucking hate the webp format
>>150514318So what's the story behind the tank driver mascot?
What was the biggest thing they released after FNF?
>>150514318The FNF generation are talented but holy shit they are pussies
>>150514318Great place to upload and archive your stuff. Only downside is that NewGrounds turns the images into webp's.Decent place to interact with others simple.It's also at the same time a place that loves to suck itself off when you get deeper in the community. Literal echochamber of a circlejerk.
>>150514318i knew this one dickhead artist from a newgrounds collab who didn't like my friend because they would pride themself off of "not needing to draw porn to be popular" yet still draws lewd girls, not to mention was super high on nepotismspeaking of nepotism, newgrounds has a huge problem with that where the quality of your work doesn't really matter if a mod does not like you or care. So you kinda have to be a huge kiss ass to make it on the site
I was hanging out over there for Madness Day 2025. Good vibes and ultra-violence, ahoy!
>>150516004if you aren't squeamish with the command line or terminal, you can convert webp to png SUPER fast with ffmpeg.
>>150514318Not anymore.
>>150515341I could accept almost everything but messing with the filenames made me not want to donate anymore. I mean, what the fuck was the point of that?
>>150516004>>150516069>>150518378>go to address bar>change "webp" with "png"
>>150514318The blamming system killed lots of legit historic stuff. Some of it due to hate bandwagons and forum cabalsIt is still precious and the unique artstyle alone makes it priceless. When sites like Newgrounds and YTMND finally kick out the visual diversity of the Internet will just plummet.
>>150520258>finally kick outBrainfart or ESL?
>>150520211doesn't always work but ok
>>150521330it only works if the site happens to have both stored in the same place with the same name. Bully if that happens to work on NG, but it's not something that you can assume generally works.
>>150514318still feels like a genuine art site, which is shockingly rare in year of our lord 2025
>Arfenhouse is over 20 years old
>>150514318it never did
>>150520258the mod circlejerk system did even more damage. when you have underage kids being the mods, they not only sniff their own farts, they remodel the whole website to suit their tastes
>>150517779kill yourself, pedestrian pleb
>>150516069>Great place to upload and archive your stuff.not really, got my 20 years of uploads nuked, because some mod got their fee fee hurt.>Decent place to interact with others simple.yeah not really, unless you are a tranny

>>150523065>window_crash_1.wav
>>150516004We all do>>150520258I concur. Certain pics you can't directly change to png or jpg internally on the site and using outside source might degrade the quality
>>150514318Who's your favorite Newgrounds character?Blockhead is a golden oldie with a timeless formula.
How New were the Grounds anyway?
>>150525165Please stop bumping your own thread. Nobody likes jewground and nobody wants to discuss this shit, nor see its garbage logo in the /co/ catalog
>>150514318Site no longer hosts edgy content in favor of FNF porn
>>150525210>site no longer hosts content in favor of pornftfy
>>150525190Thanks for the bump anon :)
>>150525964>he doesn't know how to use *word for wisdom*typical newfag
>>150525210>>150525375seems like a good trade since the internet isn't funny anymore
>>150525375Idk what you are talking about, you can easily find tons of new content being made weekly that isn't porn
>>150526025to be fair, ng doesn't have any content whatsoever. everything on ng you can find elsewhereporn? literally googlesearch has better porngames? the very same games are on itch.ioart? everything is either on insta or deviantartmusic? spotify / youtube / bandcampcommunity? even 4chan has a better community than ngI don't understand why some people have a need to shill this website like (150526038)But I'd rather castrate myself, bake my testistles, or eat them raw than visit shitgrounds
>>150526089>everything on ng you can find elsewhereBy the same logic no place has any real content and we all might as well only use Twitter for now on
>>150526570shitgrounds not only doesn't have content, it's also a terrible place with insufferable people. it's like voluntarily jumping into a pool of sharks. no thanx tranny
>>150526678>it's also a terrible place with insufferable peopleYou aren't forced to talk to others and even if you were being filled with insufferable people is 99% of the internet nowdays anyway
>>150523555converting to png from webm using ffmpeg won't result in any degradation of quality unless you specifically add arguments to compress it.
>that one anon who can't stop, but keep bumping this threadSAD!
>>150520258>When sites like Newgrounds and YTMND finally kick out the visual diversity of the Internet will just plummetMaybe? One of the potential benefits of AI fags ruining nearly every single space where creative people currently share their work is that I'm hoping people will move to less homogenized spaces in general. Perhaps people will migrate from instagram and twitter and move into other sites like Newgrounds.
>>150526678yeah, the social aspect of NG fucking sucks ass. The only people who chat on those message boards are apparently completely retarded. Some good art/animation/music sometimes, though.
>>150516069I agree unfortunately. As much as people say NG has the best community it only feels like that if you already spent years jerking other people off on the forums and you're already "in" with the people who run itIt's very much run like a "cool kids table" just like every other place
>>150527647Doubtful for a very simple reason - no money from NG, and terrible community, not to mention that NG changed the rules into something more PC. If anything, something new might get started
>>150527666not to mention that people who become mods, use their power to ban people whom they just personally dislike on superficial reasons. there is literally nothing to search on ng that isn't avalaible anywhere else. and to add insult to injuty, YOU HAVE TO REGISTER TO PLAY GAMES, OR WATCH A+ ART. HOW GAY IS THAT?
>>150527703add to the fact the constant spam where Foolp begs for money every two or three submissions.
>>150522974>Fool! All we do in hell is play DDR.
>>150523611Blockhead is cool, but when it comes to Swain's cartoons Mastermind is better
>>150527669that's why I said a site LIKE newgrounds. Meaning, another space.
>>150527812honestly? 4chan is such place. it's just that people are fucking lazy. another thing that people forget is that NG got crazy about statwhoring, as people were blamming stuff for blam points, or to get rank. it's really autistic and counterproductive, because you have people autistically searching for offensive stuff that breaks the rule, so they can have a gold whistle or sth. as such, in the past 5 years stuff from the 00s got deleted en masse
>>150525210>>150525375top fulp probably regrets deciding to let a horde of tumblr refugees who have a fuck ton of depraved fetishes into his platform and let some of them be his mods without asking any questions. either that, or he just doesn't care cuz he moved on like everyone else.
>>150527845>honestly? 4chan is such placelol kek lmao
>>150528131he doesn't care>>150528155there was a time, when /x/ wrote a book about paranormal, /co/ created their own comic, /v/ created their own game mascot, and so on. but like I said, with each year, there is an influx of lazy people who are just interested in discussing the same shit, and reposting the same pics. there is little creativity, but it's not only 4chan, it's everywhere but few places. personally, I believe in dead internet theory
>>150527802>Swaindoes he draw porn
>>150527703>YOU HAVE TO REGISTER TO PLAY GAMES, OR WATCH A+ ART. HOW GAY IS THAT?Anon... that's literally every non pornographic website if you want those kind of things
>>150514318I can't see the rated M stuff on there anymore.
>>150529461lol no, unless you live in some shithole, but then again, I don't care
>>150529461well, explain to me, why do you have to register to play games, then? the very same games, which you can play on itch.io?
Shitgrounds is a terrible website, and I will fucking disembowel any retard who will try to defend this piss-poor, godforsaken website. It never produced anything good on its own. Salad Fingers, had its own website (fat-pie), and got more popular thanks to youtube anyway.
>>150514318deadnewest pic only got like less than 100 viewsdevianart scored me 5k views
>>150529575Anon...you don't need an account to play the games, you a only need one if you want to play the pornographic ones like meet and fuck
>>150530329objectively false, you obviously weren't on ng since forever
>>150529212i dont think so
>>150530368cont. which is actually a good thing, you lost nothing of value
>>150527719it sucks that i have to pay to change my name on nudegrounds, its bullshit.
>>150529630Madness Combat? Not disagreeing nor defending the site by the way.
>>150527703>powertripping modsI've been on Newgrounds for a long time and every time somebody tries to bring this up with screencapped posts and proof, it turns out that the victim was just a melodramatic retard and the mods were completely reasonable.
>>150530480then leave 4chan and go back to the shithole you came from
>>150530495..did you get banned by a Newgrounds mod, by any chance?
>>150530368Nigga I've beaten Abobo's Big Adventure more times than I call tell and most of the times where without an account, this is the easiest thing to verify on your own and unless they changed it last month, it would prove me right.
>>150516004I just wish I could get my computer to open them on the photos app by default, for some fucking reason if I click on them directly they open in Chrome, I have to click on the nearest jpg or png and navigate to it to view it in photos
>>150530572>flash gamesdude, flash games were converted long time ago to NG player / ruffle. not ALL games, but plenty of the (better and newer) games require account to play, and I'm not going to visit NG just to win an argument on the internet, nor I care if someone believes me
>>150514318They're like really fucking sensitive about anything remotely close to loli for some reason. Shit that no other site that banned loli cares about regularly gets deleted there, like teen titans or ben 10 porn, or any ocs that are a little bit short or a little bit flat.
>>150530545O hai Fulp. your website reeks and your wife is an ugly jew
>>150530646Kinda funny that Shadman used to be a popular NG creator. But times change
>>150527627I swear to god, every time in a while there is some astroturfing about NG on /co/ of all places. not /v/, not /flash/, but /co/. I noticed today that this thread was on page 10 many many times, and *zap*, back to page 1. some discord raid?
>search newgrounds out of curiosity>click the website>it opens with some weird system check of my PCwtf man? does it have some malware?
>>150527845>4chan is such placeno it isn't>stuff from the 00s got deleted en masseThat's why people need to go back to having a personal website. If a service gets a bug up their ass, your fans can always find you work in your own private home.
>>150530903Compared to other sites, 4chan managed to have more shit done collectivelly. And maybe, 4chan should start doing some projects, instead of shitposting all day about how we hate everything? I miss the threads when anons could plot the comic with the OP drawfag. These were the good times
>>150530480Yeah but consider this; back in 2008 or 2009 a mod locked the DVD collecting thread I'd posted in every day for like 4 years. Mods = fags is a universal constant.
>>150530841They suffered DDoS attacks lately, so Tom put safety measures in place.
All the old Newgrounds guys are having midlife crises and lashing out because they haven't accomplished anything.
>>150531053LOL lmao, I hope they get doxxed to death
>>150528131>and let some of them be his mods without asking any questionsYeah, Jeff needs to get his kinks under control.
>>150531077 I don't think they really care that much about their NG past. If they do, they hide it really well. Not even Stamper mentioned anything about NG in years, and his most recent interview was like 1 year or two ago
>>150531053Thank god I deleted my account early this year. They already had situations in the past, when the users info was leaked with passwords
>>150530545...Or maybe you weren't on their shit list?
>>150530733Why is that every time something is brought up more than once you get people shitting their pants thinking that they are being raided or that someone is shilling something? I could at least understand if it was about something owned by a big corpo but it's the Meet and Fuck website that can barely pay their bills
>>150531053That entire fucking site is a genuine mess. I remember all the fucking crashes with the fucking Friday Night Funking shit.
>>150530956>And maybe, 4chan should start doing some projects, instead of shitposting all day about how we hate everything?Wouldn't that be nice? And also everyone should get a pony and a robot girlfriend who farts cupcakes. The vast majority of retards here don't actually make anything. They just take a gigantic shit on literally everything and then bitch about how unfair life is. Unless your project is going to involve AI prompting for fat girls jiggling, don't expect too much.
>>150514318no, its funny of troons now sadly
>>150531356full* stupid auto correct
>>150531352>AI prompting for fat girls jigglingthat's.... a brilliant idea
Isn't this website basically a massive scam? Average user of Newgrounds is unironically somewhere around 14-17 years old, and many of them are supporters, meaning they pay monthly some amount of money for the website.
>>150531352>The vast majority of retards here don't actually make anything. They just take a gigantic shit on literally everything and then bitch about how unfair life is. Unless your project is going to involve AI prompting for fat girls jiggling, don't expect too much.Yeah, that's why I used to word "lazy'. I do believe that it comes in waves. We had lazy influx of users this decade. I guess that we see some creatives, next decade. Not really optimistic, I know. I still prefer 4chin over any other website. It ironically feels sane here
>>150531403the monthly "fee" is $2.99. It's to cover operation costs since the site is not otherwise monetized. Users who pay get a few honorary perks, but nothing to write home about. It's more about supporting the site. If you don't pay, you can still use all the functions of the site unhindered. I would not call NG a scam by any stretch of the imagination.
>>150531440aaah, I love how your kind easily reveal themselves. Evisceration, it shall be. I knew it was suspicious that suddenly, an NG thread appeared here.
>>150531481I didn't start the thread, but I do use NG. If you want to make stuff and are starting from no network, it's a good place to meet people. I've gotten jobs from people I've met on there.
>>150531718I'm genuinely sorry that you had to do this. There is something desperate about that website
Can we be Newgrounds now?
