NEW GROUNDS EVERY THING BY EVERY ONE!

It's been a wild ride and we are still alive to tell the tale. Below is a brief history of how Newgrounds came to be, and where it is going in the future.
1991 - It Begins

Fanzine Newgrounds was not originally intended for the web, but rather was a Neo Geo fanzine by the name of "New Ground", "Neo" being a synonym for "New", and "Geo" being a synonym for "Ground". I published New Ground from my parents' basement in Perkasie, PA, sending sporadic issues to somewhere around 100 subscribers. I was 13 at the time, which explains why I have so much faith in today's thirteen year olds.

In addition to Neo Geo game reviews and tips, New Ground was packed with funny comics that were made by editing scanned comics from video game manuals.Welcome to Newgrounds! You may want to start by brushing up on the history of the site or perhaps even the history of its founder, Tom Fulp!

Newgrounds is a website for people who love to make Flash games and movies and those who love them. The focal point of NG is the Flash Portal, where users submit their homemade games and movies so that other users may view and critique them. We also offer resources for artistic collaborations such as an Audio Portal where musicians can submit their music to be used freely in games and movies.

The purpose of this FAQ is to help users understand how the site works and how they can use it. Any questions that aren't answered here may be directed to the Newgrounds Administrators. * Stay on the topic of the submission and do not make personal remarks or insults towards the author.
