Hey newcomers, I'm Gremlin, let me just tell you that NewgroundsNation here is actually not our self-appointed dictator, he is our self-appointed whore, but he is our little whore

I love this website already!


Good... Good... Good...

Hello, I am a new artist here!

So far I like it here, this website has a really nice retro feel to it.

I don't quite understand some things, like the whistle thingy or getting scouted, but I will browse the help forum XD

Hi, I am new. I am here to look at pretty art and to waste time because I can.

Response to New User Introduction Thread! Aug 14, 2020


I'm Skye. I draw things sometimes, when I don't hate everything I make. I enjoy things that most other people probably haven't heard of. I don't really like forums all that much, I've had bad experiences with them.


tired of people who haven't played FE insulting it

i need to go outside more often...

I like this idea. I've been here for years. Sometimes it's neat to pretend to be new just for the reaction.


Just lurking...

Everyone else, feel free to welcome new users are they arrive!


Hello! I'm not sure what prompted me to make a Newgrounds account, but by how it seems so far, Newgrounds is like what I wanted Facebook to be for me when I was like, 11. lol. I want to post my art onto the internet here. :)


Response to New User Introduction Thread! Aug 20, 2020


Uh hi! Hello!

Bit of a newb in the forums here, but not at all new to Newgrounds itself. I've been in and out since I was a kid for the games mostly, still remember the peak haydays of flash, but this is my first time years later actually making the leap to create an account. Also my first time actually exploring the rest of the site's gallery in terms of art and other forms of content. Still getting my feet wet in trying to establish my own presence and start participating back in some way. I refuse to go back to Deviantart or Tumblr for most part, don't trust twiiter, hate facebook, insta's too broad, reddit too insular, and frankly I've just always respected what Newgrounds stood for and catered to for a long time. It's not near perfect, but I'm eager to be here and join the party and start a clean slate from my old platforms.


So far I really love what I see so far, and yeah, any newcomer advice to the community aspects is welcome. Amateur in the creative niche, myself, mostly pencil art and traditional craft; Flipnote Hatena is on the long list of ships I had to jump years ago, and I'd love to get back into growing more specifically as an animator and digital artist moving ahead. Thank you guys for having me.

Welcome to Newgrounds! Checked out your art. Love your work! A great start is to make your own Art Thread in the Art Forum. It's a great way to share your WIPs and get feedback.

My name is Max - you can also call me "Trash". I like Video Games and coffee. I've lurked the Newground forums for years. This is my first time making an account and posting something in the forums.

Response to New User Introduction Thread! Sep 10, 2020


So many years after being introduced to Newgrounsd I've decided to make an account in hopes to meet more people in the community of incredible content creators! I genuinely hope to be able to share all my works, whether it be art,animation, or voice acting and possibly collaborate with as many people here on NG

Hello, my name is Jason and I'm an artist/animator from Norway.

I used to lurk on Newgrounds way back in 2004-2005. I posted my first animation on here yesterday and it got more views here than on YouTube,which I'm very grateful for.


I have a new project in mind that I'll post previews of later.

Response to New User Introduction Thread! Sep 21, 2020


Oh, This is a thread that exists!


Glad I found this otherwise I would have had to make my own thread, And that's no fun. This will, However, Be very long winded.


For reasons yet to be imparted (Asperger's Syndrome) - I can't get a full read on this site whatsoever.


Allow me to explain, and potentially max out the TMI Meter trying to give a test run for my Modus Operandi, because a Forum Post seems to be the most logical, old-fashioned, and reliable way to do this. Hell, I browsed the "Confessions" thread, Taking solace in the fact that I am not the weirdest of the weirdos on here. A massive problem I have with myself is that I keep setting myself up to fail by inventing false standards of normalcy that I simply would never stack up to because of the many behavioral quirks I've gained over the years of having unrestricted internet access far too early for my own good. Anyways.


I've ended up on this website because of 2 other users, Not naming them yet, But they follow me and I follow them, and one of them offers sage advice (pun intended) About how I should proceed with acting not just on the internet, But with life in general practically. Why I decided to put myself on NG Is because I want to do 3 things - But all of which lump themselves into the neat little package of; I want to have a place where I can follow creative muses uninhibited and in a place that encourages musings that entertain such metaphysical wanderlusts. (if that isn't one of the most pretentious things I'll end up typing, I don't know what will be.)


To be more specific...


  1. I'm here to chase, I'll be blunt here, a Delusion of Grandeur, of reaching the foreseeable end goal of bringing myself and friends along for the ride of founding a massive game development studio and launching one or two multi-media franchises that already have a full year's worth of creative writing to back them up. I've already ended up job hunting for 2 of those friends and have namedropped this site as a "Path Seldom-trotted (in recent times)" for them to potentially invest in too.
  2. I swore a solemn vow to never ever use Facebook or Tw*tter. No offense to those who do use it, You either possess either a staggeringly high tolerance of the acidic verbal-deluge that Twitter provides as a social media service, Or a yet un-diagnosed, and un-researched version of Stockholm Syndrome fueled by Herd Mentality (/s). It's because of this, That I've effectively locked myself from a very very very large potion of the internet and therefore, need to find other ways of disseminating my brainwaves and also knowing what's up with the world. I have plenty of, I hate to say it, But, Liaisons for certain communities, Or fragments of certain communities, So I already have some, like, precedence. The only problem is reason 3 I'm here. Probably the strangest reason of all.
  3. I want a community that's crazy, if not more, than I am, And yet tolerant of most if not all eccentricities. Newgrounds ticks all those boxes.


This needs more of a breakdown, But I don't want to overwhelm with information in this already dense wordbrick, So I'll just say this. I've had a very strange mental development cycle, And since the world has literally frozen in place, I've ended up with more time to think about my future than I've ever had, And it hasn't been sucked up by real life issues. It just so happens that I could very well qualify for the "Eccentric Risque Trailblazer" Stereotype that I've seen spring from NG many a time. I want to see if that holds true to this day, And weren't just flashes in the pan.


I leave with two words,


Vibe. Check.


Tl;dr, Just a Transient Mind wondering if this is a good place to call HQ.

Hi, I'm Miss Madson, and I decided to join Newgrounds to celebrate davemadson's 10th anniversary on YouTube! I create videos for YouTube, most notably videos inspired by davemadson.


If you haven't heard of him, I would recommend that you check out his channel and watch his videos to familiarize yourself with him!

Hello, I'm JJA1999. I can't remember why I joined back in February (maybe to view an under judgement thing? I don't know), but I'm officially coming on now because pandemic times got me bored.


I am glad I joined in February though, 2/22/20 is a pretty neat join date.......it's got 2s...

Howdy, I'm new to NG.

Saw some friends over on twitter had NG accounts and I figured I'd go ahead and start posting here as well.

I'm an artist, I just started posting here so there isn't a ton to see here yet.

Response to New User Introduction Thread! Sep 29, 2020


Hey guys. Will make intro quick and to the point.


I used to watch a lot of the old flashes here back in the early 2000's. I lost interest but after watching oneyplays recently, I realized that this website is still going and wanted to see what's going and realized how much I've missed. I have a lot of good memories here and want to come back and actually support the community and submit my own content as well.


Ngl, I'm workin on drawing porn animations, but I am learning as much as I can about art so that I can submit disney-like quality animations. I've been working on three animations for the past month and hope to have them finished by the end of the week. I can't wait to catch up on everything and get a chance to actually talk to some of the users here. TIme to go watch some good ol' arferhaus.

Hey everyone! I am video game-style music composer. I remember going to Newgrounds way back in the day (early 2000's?) but only joined just recently thanks to the SNES music contest going on. The community aspect of this site seems great for all creative types, looking forward to interacting more with you all.

Hello! I draw things, mainly fanart (especially OFF fanart), and occasionally attempt to make music. I used to go on here sometimes as a kid and I recently remembered this place and decided to make an account.
