Well, first, the EGB is for the Games & Movies portals. Still though, thanks for this. I'm not really sure what the rules are on tracing. I'm guessing it's not allowed, but I really don't know. The Tharja one has a tag saying it's traced, but the others are called redraws so maybe they really were made from Scratch, thwy just look very much alike. I mean, if he's honest about the traces, why would he lie about the redraws? Still though, I think we should ask an Art Portal mod about this.

Sorry, my bad. I was quite sure tracing wasn't allowed. I could only see that one of them explicitly called a redraw, the others I find misleading. The lineart is so exact that if they were only redraws and not traces, I would be shocked. And impressed, I guess.
Thanks for your help!

I’m currently leading dreamers astray in the Dreamlands, so I hope I remember to check this when I get back to my dimension.
If someone’s upfront about traces or grid-use, the pics are usually kept to their user page only. Otherwise I think it’s worthwhile to politely approach someone that you’re aware there’s an original that exists. People who are intentionally being deceptive are problematic.
If something looks like a trace, I’d usually overlay it with the original on PS to see if it lines up.

I pushed the reported ones to the user's page, but I guess I missed the others..?
EDIT: nevermind, they upped them again. PM sent. :\

It's semi-allowed, as ToaS has said below.

Could somebody take a look at this game https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/725465
I find it odd that Flipline Studios didn't publish on their own account.

That's cuz it's stolen. It has an "Add this to your site?" button a few pages in, which helps thieves submit things they didn't make. :\ Gone.

I don't think it should be acceptable at all, that's deliberately taking someone else's linework, thought put into it and taking it as your own. But that's just my take on it..

We got us some Fort Night, boys. It seems like even the game playin' was stolen from someone else, as the veedeo is extremely short and the description is just a bunch of keywords and sounds like it was written by one of 'em boys who make strange crap for views (or take other people's). The music and comedy of it makes it hard for me to believe that the same person who done did the editing wrote the description.
Edit: after a quick Google I found that this was indeed a meme. I just searched for "Fortnite bush squad". I wonder who does this stuff. Indians?
My stolen alarm is going off on this but I don't know where to find the original. Anyone else got a lead?
Barracks Roster as of February 1st, 2019:
Okay, so who's had enough of the cold already? I got in my car at 07:30 this morning and the cabin temp was a balmy 3 degrees F! It didn't want to start at first - and when it did, it sounded like there was no oil in the engine. Didn't realize that 5W30 motor oil would become nutella when frozen. I went back inside and let it idle for about 10 minutes ; which gave the engine time to wake up, the oil to become liquid again, and the cabin temp to reach near 55F - much better.
I hope all the fine folks here are staying safe and warm - remember, a blam rifle fired at regular intervals generates sufficient heat to keep your hands from freezing!
Anyway, I digress. Last month we had a lot of activity, and many members reached some decent milestones. EGSC @Guthrie and Brig. Gen. @Peregrinus are leading the way - between just those two soldiers, they accounted for over half of the total b.p. points registered! Not to mention they've been very active in the forum, keeping busy with taking care of essential business. Well done, gentlemen! *Salutes*
And let's not forget EGSC @Exedor , who continues to display his leadership and support skills for another month. Truly a fine example of what the EGB stands for. *Salutes*
Overall, it was a good month, and I thank all of your for support and dedication to the Barracks, and to keeping Newgrounds a decent place for everyone who visits!

At this rate I'll be promoted in a few years. Damn! Up my game.

*salutes* Thank you for the update, ma'am!
I'm sure next month I'll get more B/P for the barracks, as I've renewed my voting habits. I also have to say that today I got a silver whistle. Most of the flags did come from audio and improperly rated art, but I like to think that I've helped the Movies Portal at least a bit.

Thanks, @byteslinger, just got around to reading your update of the month.
The EGB looks to be in excellent shape, I'm really impressed at the level of activity we're seeing.
I visited the midwest US over Christmas and missed any good snowfall for what seems like the fifth year in a row. Now I'm back in the south and all this polar vortex activity is doing for me is making my walk to work a little chilly. I really miss living in a place that has seasons other than "hot" and "a little less hot." Though I don't think I would fare well in the current batch of frigid weather. Anyone stuck in that has my sympathy.

RE: New version of Portal Guard is now available.
In keeping up with modernizing NewGrounds utilities, I am proud to announce that a NEW online version of Portal Guard (PG 4.0) is now operational and part of the new NGLogs site. It runs in a browser (needs Javascript enabled) on just about any device; it doesn't require any client installation nor does it care what OS you run. There are plenty of new features, and it now shows ALL submissions (art, audio, games and movies). And, yes, it DOES run on mobile devices!
Read all about it here: http://www.wkrconcepts.com/nglogs/index.php?id=pgfaq
It was a great tool for the PC in its day, and now it's back - bigger and better than ever.
Hopefully, it will be useful in your daily fight to keep Newgrounds a great place for all.
Any comments, questions or concerns, please let me know.
As you were...
