Dragon Drop would be funny as a little easter egg at the bottom corners of the site skin, but Club a Seal would be another cool addition too. Piconjo is also great! Completely up to you to choose! Let me know when you get this, sorry for the late response.
woooo

Woooooooo! Made up your mind on which character you'd like to draw for the collab?

Give me some of your featured/front paged works just so I can see them later in the day. Thanks for your interests!

Well, the only artwork I made that got front paged was this one i made from last year https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/herbietendo/first-time-drawing-ena

Looks good! Since you drew ENA so well here, and someone here is wanting to draw Piconjo, may I suggest you to draw another notable JoelG character(s)? HANDS UP - Rhythm N' Ambush

HANDS UP - Rhythm N' Ambush I’d be down to draw Margo since I never drew her before so this’ll be fun:D and if it’s ever fine if I did another character like Ula who’s also in that same animation if not, I can totally understand on doing one lol.

This is the only art that has been front paged.
https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/massivemarioluigi700/cubesona-gift

My reputation for frontpages comes from music. Hopefully my art gets that frequent treatment aswell!

Looking good, you're eligible to join! Y'know if Piconjo would be the character you'd want to draw or is there another notable NG character you'd like to suggest?

On the list I was surprise to see that boyfriend wasn’t up there, or maybe that’s me not looking at it good. But um if I where to choose a character, it’s either…

Otis - ”he’s supposedly Pico’s younger cousin, not sure if this character is canon in the pico verse, might gotta fact check that.”

or

Peter the Ant - “I think he’s a canon character in Pico School.”

some others like I’d consider would be.

Strawberry Clock, Interactive Buddy, Pod-Chan, Ghetto Bots, Uber(John, Fred, & Sam), Samurai Asshole, MC-Kun, Weebl, Convict etc.

some of these characters are probably on the list already.

But out off all of them, Otis and Peter Ant would be my top picks.

Y'know, Pod-Chan sounds like a cool idea, I would draw her if I were to enter this. I'd take a look at the list one more time just to be sure none of what you just listed is on there, like Strawberry Clock has already been taken and so is Samurai Asshole. Just a thought!

Sadly you must have an art submission of yours (collabs do not count) to be featured on the front page in order to be eligible for this collab. Sorry guys, but don't let this prevent y'all from participating in celebrating the anniversary!

@devoidgazer

Most certainly, don't forget to keep it anniversary themed. Have fun!

@PotoX64734

You must be scouted and have an art submission of yours (not collab submissions) be featured/front paged in order to be eligible for this collab.

@Waterina

Seeing you're scouted and front paged, shore thang. The question is though, which NG character are you willing to draw either it be Piconjo or another you want to suggest, lmk here!

OK, but honestly, no offense, but I think that this collab could actually help people to get scouted out like you see the problem is that a lot of these artists nowadays have been stuck in a state of obscurity as they’re mostly overshadowed by another artist who can just draw better than them

I hear you! However, as suggested to me by Tom for this particular collab, I have to keep the quality under control and unfortunately some people will be left out.

I do plan on hosting another collab that will have lesser guidelines though, so anyone, even non-artists on the platform can participate.

Well, that’s understandable. I mean I guess a lot of the artists here have to work harder in improving their art skills I mean, I was told by somebody that I need to flesh out my art style more but the problem is from my experience the fact that a lot of people tend to over look them and just look at our art without saying anything not even like giving them constructive criticism

But I am at least glad that you’re planning on making a new Collab that might help underrated artist like me to basically get out there because we definitely need more Collabs like that to help us get scouted and recognized

At 1/6/25 05:22 PM, Porter wrote:Hello there and welcome to the art section of the Newgrounds 30th Anniversary collab!

Take a quick read of Tom's 2025 site-wide event plans here & check out the Audio collab section too. Will include more links later!

--THE PREMISE--
Newgrounds' 30th birthday is coming up this year and it would be awesome to celebrate the long and rich history of the site with everyone. This website has always had a soft spot in my heart since I was a kid discovering the depths of the web, especially discovering artists who put out their works in the cyberspace. They all are what keep me inspired to make the art I put out today. Now I feel I am a part of a dedicated community filled with great talented creatives who feel the same way I do about the website. Let's make history and get creative!

--WHAT TO EXPECT--
The collabs' theme is expected to be celebrating the 30 years of the website, but more notably the new characters and history we have witnessed for the past 10 years. In no particular order, Friday Night Funkin, Sublo and Tangy Mustard, Monkey Wrench, Punch Punch Forever, Satina, ENA, among many more new beloved series are all what we're celebrating with along with the classics we grew up with back in the day. The template of what the collage art wall should look like is included here for reference. All 30 handpicked characters are to be included in the collage and more can be added in case we get more participants or have enough time for more to draw before the deadline!

This is a little template and reference I whipped up to use when coming up with what you want a character to be drawn as. More characters may be possible to include in this collage later on, but for now, we can stick with just 30 total. Let me know what you think and if we can get creative with what each character can do in the collage!

--DA RULES--

To keep the collage art wall be the best quality possible, to avoid low effort works or spam, you must meet these requirements in order to participate in this collab:

--HOW IT'LL WORK--
When you're ready to participate, DM me and/or comment on this thread that you are wanting to join the collab. Be sure that you're willing to participate, and include which character you want to draw and I'll add it to the spreadsheet. After the spreadsheet is mostly filled out, everyone has up until the 30th of June to complete their entries and have them sent to me via DMs, this thread, and/or posting it to the art portal. Posting your entry to the art portal is also acceptable and will need to include the tag NGArt30 in order to be seen. The final collage will be posted either the 5th or 6th of July, depending if everyone needs to do last minute changes to their entries. (But let's hope that doesn't happen)

--THE TIMEFRAME--
We have about more than half the year to get this collab ready to go, but there are gonna be a lot of things that'll happen with everyone here, myself included, throughout the year. With that said, here is a timeline of what is to be expected between now and the websites birthday:

Few things to end off this post is that, if there are more characters or series you wanted to see in this spreadsheet and want to draw for this collab, feel free to let me know here or in DMs and it will be included. If you are not sure if you can complete your entry between now and the deadline, it is suggested you do not join this collab. Otherwise, let me know if there's anything that pops up if you do join and are unable to complete it, we'll work something out from there. I will add any changes to this post if there are any mistakes I made or if there is anything that needs clarification. Any more questions or suggestions can be addressed in the thread or DMs, I will answer them asap and to the best of my ability.

Lets all come together and bring this anniversary to be the best it can be! I am excited to be hosting this and wish everyone will have a fun time with their drawings to celebrate Newgrounds together. :D

I've been frontpaged a few times, I think the most recent non-event based one was this
