I honestly regret not discovering Newgrounds as a kid. I was on the internet all the time around 2008 when YouTube was just starting to get big. I completely missed out on over a decade of being a part of this community. Well, it's not too late to start (unless the world randomly explodes within the next 28 seconds then maybe it would be)
I intend to become a lot more active on this site by not only posting art but also start uploading animations and live-action/animated hybrids, like BuNNy, more often. Don't get me wrong I'll still do what I do on YouTube as I do intend to make a comeback on that site on the 5th but I also want to make NG a big part of my life.
Newgrounds is such an important part of the creative community on the internet that gets severely overshadowed thanks to sites like YouTube and it would be a shame to see it go away.
Now to announce a few things...
- On August 30th I'm uploading an animated live action hybrid called "Spaghetti Wars" on both YouTube and Newgrounds
- During the Halloween season I also would like to create a short called "Schizo-Freak" which is also a live action animated hybrid. But as a NewGrounds exclusive considering it's subject matter might be a bit too touchy for YouTube. But YouTube will get some of it's own completely live-action content though.
- A new (possible) series. By the end of the year I would like to get started on a fully animated project called "Bad Idea Cat" that may become a series if it gets the right amount of traction.
I hope to build a good relationship with this community and to open more opportunities to grow in the future. Thanks for reading and I'll see you around!

I know exactly what you mean ^.^ dont worry, even if you missed out on Newgrounds in the earlier days, a lot of content that was popular at the time originated from here, so no one is completely left out.
Welcome to Newgrounds. Enjoy yourself
