newgrounds account?

Fri Jun 19, 2009, 4:34 PM

hey, you can catch my work on the newgrounds art portal now too. it's got a nice thumbnailing tool, other than that not sure what to think of it yet. art submissions can be judged just like flash cartoons - 0-5/10 scale with votes and reviews.. i think that's kind of retarded. but there has been a lot of anticipation for it so there is a lot of good (and bad) work floating around on it already.

anyway, if you have an ng account you can upload too, you just need to be "scouted" , aka someone needs to click on this button to allow your work to be shown in the portal if they think it's good enough. anyone else with an account can do that. easily abused, but apparently there are quite a few art mods that take care of it.

still, "good" art is moderately subjective, and the blam system really makes no difference for the flash portal anymore. that's all i'm gonna say though - the thing has only been up for a day now, it's too early to judge.

well they had been waiting for it just as much as anyone else who knew, so i'm sure they'll get tired of "trolling" it soon enough

Yeah, I saw it yesterday. It looks fairly nice but NG will always be about Flash to me.

I don't expect to use the thing much, but it's nice to see NG is adding more ways for people to submit their work.

I think it's really pointless for newgrounds to try so hard to expand their focus. like, does the site really need an art portal? aren't there a thousand better art portals out there already?

meh, I'm gonna stop ranting and start drawing cocks I guess

no i don't think it needs one
what i think is ridiculous is they want to open a literature portal

!FlashFirer Jun 19, 2009, 5:15:55 PM

lmfao are they like completely clueless about their userbase
whoever doesn't view the lit portal as "words? no thanks" will view it as "oh will write stuff neat I will, wirte" or something to that extent
