I’m StrangeStar, and the thing that brought me to Newgrounds was a mix of Friday Night Funkin and Sonic Scene Creators from when I was like 9 or 10

Hi there, most people just call me Cosmic because it's easier or Nyx. Like a few people here I've had this account for a bit but never really thought of engaging it like an art platform until recently when I joined a few NG event collabs and enjoyed it. I honestly thought it was just a place for NSFW artists.


Since the decent of Tumblr and Deviantart not really being seen as a main art portfolio source anymore, either due to the website being nerfed by its creators or just seen as a place for posting 'cringe art' by the general population to deter anyone from making an account on DA anymore, I've been struggling to rebuild any sort of community since.


Admittingly, it's been fairly hard to set up again, twice, as both times I've had a semi decent platform. It fell flat on it's face when I joined Twitter and it really demotivated me as an artist. I thought, 'Hey, maybe my time as an artist is over and people have just moved on from me." type of thing, but I've noticed NG has been around for a good while, it seems like a stable platform and it only seems to be getting more noticeable.


I would love to meet some new people here, and try and figure out the lore behind all these funky NG characters are.

I wonder how long that age old stigma will stick around here. XD There definitely is a lot of NSFW art here, but fortunately you can filter by whatever ratings you'd rather be exposed to, and it does go with the mantra of allowing anything, by everyone, full artistic freedom... to some extent.


Glad you discovered the other areas of this site though too Cosmic, and welcome aboard! Seems you're garnering a good following already; have a solid showcase too...

Hello, my name is SheepPF, i do like writing and music. My favourite albums are David Bowie's Let's Dance, Yes' Close To The Edge and Relayer, Pink Floyd's Animals and The Wall, and i do like Disgaea — I do own the first two games, however, but i'm interested in buying the rest of the series that is on PC, but i got a PS3 so i could try to get D2 on it.

Hi! I'm Zinkiez! I love to write and draw.

Back in the day I used to use NG all the time and used to look up to a bunch of classic users on here, but (thankfully) I never had the confidence to post back then. Finally now as an adult I feel sure enough of my abilities to post on here. I can't wait to meet some new users and look at some new wonderful art as well as some great nostalgic classics. lets be frens :)

Welcome SheepPF! Iconic artists in your listenlist there. Curious if you ever listened to the last music Bowie made before he died? Got pretty emotional... masterful stuff. Reminded me a bit of Jonny Cash's Hurt.


Hope his legacy lives on forever.


And nice quote. XD

Well i haven't listened to Blackstar, but i can assume that it is depressing due to him knowing that his death's not too far away.


And for the quote part, blame Trevor Rabin for not completing the lyrics to Love Will Find A Way first, so we got the most cheesiest line from a 80s song.

Yeaah it was, though inspiring at the same time... maybe it's just me but I seem to find solace in dark things. It's like they give you perspective, and maybe let you appreciate what you have a bit more. And it's just really good, as so much of his work.

Hello everyone! I'm new user here doing NSFW art. I knew of Newgrounds long ago but didn't give it a try for real. So now I'm here trying to promote myself a little but very excited to see a big community here. Now that I'm a user here I aprecciate a lot how many content there is and so different. I hope to make some friends, collabs and anything we want. I think the most important is to have fun.

Hey there RedHaze! The forum's like a whole other world innit? Totally agree regarding those NG highlights. Really hard to find a place like it these days, that still doesn't compromise with any of this shizzle. Still driven by real passion. And goodwill.

Hey I dont even know how to use bbs or anything but figured Im probably late on doin my into. Idk what all to say about myself per say, I dont have any major substantial thing I have made yet that belongs on newgrounds but maybe sometime soon that could change. As for what brought me to newgrounds, a friend in middleschool like about a decade ago told me about the place and the rest was history.


I had an account back in 06 and used to really like the Thwomps series and Super Mario Bros Z as well as The legend of Zelda 4 swords misadventures and The Real legend of Zelda (I think it was called). I was also a pretty big fan of Egoraptor at the time. Then I stopped logging in and forgot about the place for a while until around the time fnf came out and I was like "shit why did I stop going there? Like half the crap worth a damn that pops up on youtube comes from newgrounds users anyways." So here I am. Can't think of much else to say but I do wanna say thanks to Tom Fulp for keeping the place alive and Im happy its still here for me to return to, and even socialize on for the first time. I hope to get to know a lot of cool people here.

Ain't that the truth! I'm sure you will get some substantial thing out there too eventually if you choose to pursue that path. Or not. So much good content to partake in here regardless. Lotta good memories in the mentions above...

Hey, Roxy here! been familiar with Newgrounds for a while, but haven't exactly been very active in the community... as a quick introduction, I enjoy creating art, music, and feverishly browsing various sites for content (I have a bit of ADHD).


also i may have a bit of an obsession with fnf so


yeah, that's practically it
