Welcome to NewGrounds, RonnieTheZombie. Where did you come from, and how green is the grass over there?

If the other side's implying NG then hell yeah! It's so green here you can't imagine. Especially with the Robot Day background. Though it was even greener in the Audio Portal back when the entire layout there was green. Ironically though there's never enough greens. *hint hint*

Welcome to NG though! Hope it's all you expected it to be and more!

Some users get away with that stuff, and others get nailed to the cross with a fifteen day " brake. "

Anyway, you are always welcome to post here CyberDevil. Wasn't trying to attack you or be mean.

Thank you. I came from Deviant Art. I have been on there for a year and I found a forum about this site. So I thought I'd come check it out. Seems pretty nice here so far. In terms of the shade of green it is over there... only the money has a nice hue.

I love the fact that there is an audio portal on here. I have a degree in motion picture and majored in sound design, so I might put it to good use here.

How are things going on Deviant Art? The grass is money green, must be nice. The grass here is somewhat green at times. We are trying to get a better gardener. lol

Hopefully when you're just going faster and faster that occasional brake can actually be an appreciated pace break too. ;)

Appreciate it; no ill will perceived!

For sure, and though it started out as just a resource for animators it has really evolved past that. Sounds like the perfect educational combo for it too. :D Looking forward to what major emotional mastery you might be making!

Btw I guess DA is pretty green huh, would've been a greatly greener transition coming from that main adversary YT instead...

Well I am on there too. But it's mostly for posting speed arts. Don't know if that is allowed in here. Still digging through the site.

Welcome to Newgrounds. Other artists on here have DeviantArt accounts as well, so it's okay. The community here is better and you can really hone your skills.

If there is something you don't know then check out the Newgrounds Wiki. If you can't find the answer to your question then ask it in the Where is / How to / Help! Forum.

I've taken a look at your work and I love it! I'm not sure what all you use to make your creations, but I suggest you take a look through the Creator Resources and the Art Resources page.

If you want feedback on any works-in-progess (WIP) then I highly suggest you make your own Art Thread in the Art Forum. You will get great feedback from other artists. Also if you want to show your work while you're working on it, then you should try the site Picaro. Picaro let's you live stream your creative process, your own Bob Ross show as it were.

If you have any questions concerning the Art Portal or Art Forum, then please contact one of our Art Moderators. I suggest @TurkeyOnAStick, he usually responds the quickest, and an active artist with a unique style to boot.

Nothing wrong with being paid and affording rent. I know the feeling. We have some similar issues over here as well.

Seems it's one of those places you just can´t avoid. :) Yeah they are allowed, though you might not get as great a response as on other animated work. Not everyone shares the sentiment they're a creative work in their own right - which ratings do reflect, though the standalone art is bound to be appreciated by all... who appreciate it! XD Basically everything's fine that's not straight-up ´real' footage, or photo. With exceptions for claymation, stopmotion, models, puppets etc. Feel free to ask away if anything's uncertain.

Man you've been fortunate! :D Back in the day it seemed like those bans just kept coming one after the other... though rules seemed stricter too; strongly enforced.

Hmm maybe I signed up during the year they were just starting to crack down on things then; missed that initial phase of freedom. :) Or I should look over my old posts a bit... feels to me like when the place was most active it was also the most strict.

You can't have time for fun, unless you have time to work and pay the bills. NewGrounds can be a little of both at times.
