Can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing if something looks off?

That black border is because the thumbnail is smaller than the embedded SWF, I think? I made a larger thumbnail for that one and uploaded it now:

Paul Ter Voorde is complete!


Tom's games are complete!


And we got an odd one out here too.


also Snipe Justin Timberlake might need a new parody loop. I say it MUST include the Pico “boopbepbep” still.

Can't believe I still hadn't finished my own games, I redid my Hulk thumbnail last week and was surprised I hadn't done that already, too. Maybe should revisit that song... Although I think it's transformative enough overall.

I finished 2006 and 2010, also did 2011 since there's just one. Let me know if you want me to finish up 2009, doing some thumbnails I noticed for 2015!

Been chipping away at RicePirate, which also chips away at other people because RP voiced in a lot of stuff. Doing some Ockeroid too and converting some movies to video format along the way.

ToonHole released a new movie this week and made me realize they needed updated thumbnails.

If an old user is still active on Newgrounds, wouldn’t it be possible for them to update their thumbnails themselves the way they intend it.

First a couple entries from my nostalgia playlist that didn't have updated thumbnails:


And then the completion of all of Splapp-Me-Do's work!

“Hey look, we upscaled your old submission thumbnails for you” feels better than “hey go fix your thumbnails” to me.

Thumbnail based on same scene | New thumbnail


Also as a sidenote. Did @TomFulp actually do a bit in this? He deserves some recognition now that the coauthor size increased!

Yeah I did the scene in that second thumbnail. I've updated the thumbnail and added a bunch of people to the credits!

I'm going to tackle new HD thumbnails for @W-P-S, notably his best-known movies Anusboy and its sequel.



They already have low-resolution thumbnails, and they look custom-made. I'd like to approach this by recreating the thumbnails by photoshopping in a higher quality version of the images found in the title screens, then adding the text back in.

But then there's the question. Do I retain the pixelation of the low quality typography or do I trace over it to retain higher quality? Or do I use AI upscaling?

Hmmm good question, the original typography does appear to not be anti-aliased. @W-P-S do you by any chance have hi-res versions of any of these title cards? Any preference for how you'd want the titles rendered?

This typography is also present in at least six other WPS movies circa 2007-2010, not just Anusboy. I think it was done with the low resolution thumbnail size in mind.


On an additional note, something similar was done for the thumbnail in his 2015 demo reel, only aliased at a higher resolution.
