HO HO HOPE you become a Newgrounds Supporter this year!
We're working hard to give you the best site possible, but we have bills to pay and community support is vital to keep things going and growing. Thank you for considering!
I found a valuable relic at a bookstore. Have some old-school web to inspire you. Are you ready for Flash 4?

This is fascinating. Got any more to share?

I put a few more in a news post but I haven't gotten around to reading the whole thing yet. I just took photos of the most eye-catching parts while flipping through. I wonder if this is interesting and important enough to scan and archive online, but I don't know where would accept this. I don't know if the Internet Archive wants user-submitted print scans.
Does anyone know whats the best size for posting pics on this forum?
My pics always end up getting crunched to hell, even though I already halfed their size (though tbf they're still probably too massive lol).

As a digital artist, what is your preferred dimensions to start a piece? It doesn’t have to be the dimensions of the end product: just your comfort document size when beginning fresh.
Mine’s is between 1,000 to 1,600 pxls max: big enough to potentially make a splash page or a scene but not big to the point where the default brush sizes become too small and errors can easily be missed.
Something with 3000 or 4000 pixels, I think. Never really paid attention and just adjusted it accordingly.

I don't think what you're looking for really exists anymore unfortunately. You can try smaller subreddits, when I used reddit the smaller art communities were generally fairly nice, a bit disconnected and slow though. You can try to find Art Discords by searching on twitter and reddit, Art streamers might have decent discord communities.
I haven't used it at all, but tumblr was getting some steam going a little while ago, maybe that could work for you.
Yes it does! There's that Sheezyart revival sheezy.art

I generally use 640 x 480 when posting. I don't know if that is the optimal size, but I'm happy with it.

Getting ready to edit some videos. Unless you meant art wise, in which case, I'm drawing requests I received earlier this month.

I'm currently doing pixel art for a project right now! Its currently taking a lot of my time though. :(

Newgrounds forums will ruin the image quality no matter what size it is. To this day, I still don't know why that happens. My go-to workaround is dumping pics into the NG file dump and copy/paste them directly from there. It's not a perfect solution, but it looks a lot better than posting from your computer.

Working and writing on my comic Arden Leeds. The idea is pretty new but I love those guys that I made already.
Well not long ago my ancient fossil of a pc keeled over. I suspect it was the power supply. Mostly my fault for neglecting to blow out the dust from it. But thankfully I had another cheap back up. Don't be an idiot like me and make the same mistake of not checking for dust...
Might get a replacement power supply in the future for it so it can possibly have future use. Opening it up and actually seeing how the parts connect was a pretty fun experience tbh when figuring out what was wrong.
They say 90% of everything is crud. Which is why starting since today, I'm taking 90% of everything I draw to my grave. Never sharing it with a soul.

I hate to ask, but was the animation lost?
Was still looking forward to seeing it come together.

I've recently felt opposite of this. I don't care anymore and just release whatever. Been enjoying art a lot more because of this actually

The hard drive was fine. So no data was lost.
edit: Like I said I suspect it was the power supply. All the other parts seem fine despite the dust. Well maybe not the cpu. I didn't bother to remove the heatsink to check it.
A bit of an update.
This cheap pc uses parts from fucking 2009 and can barely even run blender.
The processor is an AMD phenom II and the graphics is an ATI radeon hd 4200. But at least I can use krita just fine still, so that won't be hindered. Maybe I can give Opentoonz a try for animating some in the meantime. That's some ancient software, so it might run alright on ancient hardware.

My main PC isn't that much more up to date. The motherboard and CPU (intel i7) is from 2016. I too struggle with anything not super low poly in Blender. Heck, in order to make music without clogging CPU like crazy I have to se my ASIO block size to 1024 which results in slapback echo-like latency. Also, I'm super happy to hear that no hard drive data was lost!

The pain of being on toasters. Just got to make do with what we have. I don't think I'll be able to make use of blender until I eventually get a better rig.

Opening up your PC or your power supply? Looking inside your computer is fine. Opening a power supply is very not fine. The capacitors in there are angry enough to kill you for real.

I didn't open up the power supply. I meant opening up the pc in general when I said that. I'm very well aware how dangerous charged capacitors can be. Hell it's why electricians will let the capacitors lose power on certain things before getting started on work.
I'm for good laying off caffeine such as coffee and soda as much as I possibly can. It hinders more than helps because any ounce of boost is temporary, then you crash and have developed an expectation of the boost 24/7 which is impossible. Going cold turkey is unreasonable, so I'm going to try to minimize it.
