Not all people are the same...

People most likely lie, because they want to make themselves feel better, they boost their ego because they don't want to be embarrased or mad. These kind of people know to avoid such punishments. I think all people should accept the truth they have been told, you should tell the truth.

I used to lie as well, but that doesn't mean I can't change it.

Hope you guys have a good one!

My entry, which is frontpaged of course. Shoutout to Tom for frontpaging and Madmazel and ElRandomGMD for suggesting it for a frontpage.

Happy Pico Day, loves and hugs! 💖

@SkilledFella - @SansyFedora

Q: How did you discover Newgrounds?

A: I think I was aware of the site since 2019, but I knew about Pico and the other characters way before I knew about newgrounds (unrestricted internet access babyyyyyyy) and in 2021 when FNF had it's boom in popularity, I thought "eh, might as well join" and here we are!! Used to post here a lot in 2021, then had a 2 year hiatus and trying to return now!!

Q: A story behind the name SansyFedora?

A: Sansy is my display name that I've used since 2017, yes it comes from an undertale character, but it's been so long that it wouldn't feel right to change it now yknow. When I made my instagram account for art, I've used a few other display names, but the name "Sansy" was already taken. So I decided to do fedora_maniac, since my sona wears a fedora on her head, and I myself had a few (never wore them, I just liked hoarding up on hats). And later on in life where I needed a name longer than just Sansy, I used SansyFedora!!

Q: How did you get interested in making art?

A: I've been drawing crap ever since I was a wee baby, but I started getting into art first when I was 9, drawing on ms paint with a mouse on the family computer, then when I was 11, I switched to a drawing app on my phone and drew everything with my finger, then a year later I got my first samsung tablet with a stylus that I use to this day, and here we are. Also my drive for making art probably amped up when I started being more active online and discovering more artists and wanting to participate in the fun as well. Now I'm glued to a chair doing commissions or drawing an overabundance of pink, yippee!!!!!

Q: Do you like making content?

A: Depends on the day, sometimes I thrive while making my silly little pictures, sometimes I gotta force myself to pick up a pen, but tbh making art is one of the things that keeps me going, so in the long run, I'd say yea!! Tho outside of making content for people, I can also appreciate doing dumb doodles for your own sake, I think everyone should do that and have a nice balance between it all

Q: Do you have any experience with Newgrounds?

A: Technically I've been here for 3 years, but I'm still learning things everyday, like how the algorhythm works, or if there even is one. Sitting on regular social media does mess with your understanding of this, but it does seem more calm here, I might stay for a bit longer :)

Q: Any advice for people?

A: Don't overwork yourself, you will get that work done, but don't damage your health for it. Also back-up your files if you're working on a film/art/music/whatever cause corrupted files ain't fun. Also watch BigTop Burger by Worthikids it's really good

PLAN:

This one is the third collab I have organized on Newgrounds. My plan is to make these pictures as some kind of collage picture. Don't worry, you will get a project invitation. :)

RULES:

1. No gameplay screenshots.
2. Draw your OC what looks like ninja, it can chop some stuff, it can do a ninja pose, it can do anything!
3. No NSFW, keep it tasteful.
4. Do NOT attempt to steal someone's work, If I find out it's stolen, it is not going to be included in the collab.
5. Absolutely no AI art.
6. Keep at little or no blood (the collab is going to be T-rated)
7. No hateful speech.
8. Everyone is welcome.

RESOLUTION:

600x600

WHERE DO I SEND MY FINISHED PIECE?

You can send it here, on Private Messages, or in Newgrounds Dump.

DEADLINE:

August 23rd, 2024.

@SkilledFella - @HelliXScream

Q: How did you discover Newgrounds?

A: Back in 2017-2018 (a year before i actually joined), i discovered the site from Geometry Dash, just like the majority of people here. But officially i started only in January of 2019.

Q: A story behind the name HelliXScream?

A: Almost no one knew, but the main inspiration for my name actually came from Transformers. It originated from Starscream, the character of the franchise, and i was using this name as my nickname.

But the birth the name i'm holding now, is the result of my imagination and play with the random names.

Q: How did you get interested in making music?

A: Most of the time, i listened a lot of EDM music, right untill i discovered the Hardstyle genre in 2017.

I had a lot of thoughts of how it feels to actually "create" - the art, music or anything else.

After 1,5 years, hardstyle grew on me really deep, so i finally made an decision to try to make music. And i don't regret it.

Q: Do you like making content?

A: Yep, because it's my primary hobby from the start (i never actually had hobbies, fun fact).

Q: Do you have any experience with Newgrounds?

A: Newgrounds holds my entire story, my whole journey started with it.

As probably one of not many producers who produces hardstyle as primary genre, i like bringing something new to the community, and during that, i made a lot of friends and colleagues. Even some legends, who saw something in me.

So the experience was, and it IS good.

Q: Any advice for people?

A: Never. Stop. Doing. What. You. Like.

Doesn't matter what others will think, say or other stuff. Do your thing and don't stop.

Don't be scared to experiment, that way you'll always bring something new, no matter how bad, how stupid, or how good it is.

Because one way or another, it will pay off.

@SkilledFella - @DemonicPico

Q: How did you discover Newgrounds?

A: back when fnf started and everything, I didn't know much about it. or anything at all. but then someone said I had looked like Pico from fnf, then it got me hooked. (I also found one of my fav artists on here)

Q: A story behind the name DemonicPico?

A: at first, my name was going to be CorruptedSkid, but I scratched that idea. then I remembered how people said I looked like Pico, then it tied in with the fact that in my Catholic school days I was known as a demon. it was stupid, I didn't really know why people called me that. but then demonicpico came to life!

Q: How did you get interested in making art?

A: I had a friend back in grade 4, she was in grade 5. I was IN LOVE with her art, so she taught me how to make it. then when she had moved away, I developed my own style and my art was made even more

Q: How did you get interested in making music?

A: I hear beats, I hear interesting lyrics, so I make my own songs with it! i also enjoy writing poems, so I put the rhymes into songs

Q: Do you like making content?

A: I do, but my works been lacking. I wanna make people happy, so I try to do what I can do to do that.

Q: Do you have any experience with Newgrounds?

A: I've been on the site for a long while now, so I'd say I have a bit of experience. I can definitely help people with learning how to use it ^^

Q: Any advice for people?

A: Jesus said nothing about homosexuals. and also a cod quote "Be careful who you trust, Sergeant. the people you know can hurt you the most." - Simon Ghost Riley

@SkilledFella - @BlakeyTakeyTheCakey

Q: How did you discover Newgrounds?

A: In the computer lab I found Interactive buddy and found some other games. Years later I made my account.

Q: A story behind the name BlakeyTakeyTheCakey?

A: I’m a huge portal fan and I wanted to reference “the cake is a lie” without making it too obvious. As for the “ey” parts I just wanted to see how long my username could be.

Q: What is a collab for you?

A: A group of people making something

Q: How did you get interested in making art?

A: I have been drawing for a while as a hobby and I wanted to post my art on newgrounds (bcuz deviant art SUCKS). I post art more often because animation takes a long time for me.

Q: How did you get interested in making music?

A: I listen to music all of the time and I want to make some of my own

Q: How did you get interested in making animations?

A: I grew up watching stupid flash animations on newgrounds and youtube and wanted to make my own.

A: HELL YEAH

Q: Do you have any experience with Newgrounds?

A: Nope. This is my first account.

Q: Any advice for people?

A: Don’t do things just to be popular, do things because you have a passion for it.

@SkilledFella - @Dungeonation

Q: How did you discover Newgrounds?

A: Access to computers at a fairly young age and a fixation on Mario landed me on sites like Scratch as well as Newgrounds! Though I thought Newgrounds worked like Scratch, where you could author Flash content through the website. Got my gears turning creatively, at least. And after that I probably became one of the youngest people to ask for Adobe Flash! Even if no major projects became of that era of my life, kinda cool that a kid took out books at the library to teach themselves ActionScript. I also stuck with Scratch primarily for making things for a VERY long time.

Q: A story behind the name Dungeonation?

A: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon + Funimation (which I never even watched anything on)

Q: How did you get interested in making art?

A: I've always liked doodling little cartoons, but when I saw artwork I liked as a teen I'd get way too envious over it, and try (too hard) to improve without really getting anywhere. Nowadays I feel like I could draw pretty good if I was more consistent and disciplined.

Q: How did you get interested in making games?

A: Video games are a pretty sweet medium, and as soon as I discovered tools for making them (Flash, GameMaker, Adventure Game Studio, RPGMaker, Scratch...I went around the block!), I was having just as much fun making games as I was playing them! Some hobbies just stick hard. Just like back when I started, I still get immense joy from creating when I'm not burnt out. Usually when I'm at my computer I'm makin' stuff rather than playing games.

Q: How did you get interested in making music?

A: I come from a very musical family and one day I just started to get experimental on the piano. Then along came Undertale and, inspired, I made the jump to LMMS, and later FL Studio, slowly developing more and more skill and confidence. My music sounds very video game-y but that's been perfect for what I do, for the most part!

Q: What is a collab for you?

A: Combining your powers with someone to make somethin' even better! I really like directing people in a project, I'm naturally a very casual yet motivated director.

Q: Do you like making content?

A: Oh yeah.

Q: Do you have any experience with Newgrounds?

A: An old IRL friend of mine who also made games told me long ago not to join Newgrounds because of how critical they were of people's work. Granted, this was during the era of harsher reviews on the site, but they also said not to use GameMaker either, and I ended up not listening to either of those things!

Another good NG memory is after I joined and before gettin' more involved in 2020 - meeting my first NG friend, Megacharlie, and collabing together. He's a pretty cool and talented dude! We shared a lot of ambitious energy.

Q: Any advice for people?

A: MAKE STUFF! Find things that brighten your soul's light and incorporate it into your work. Make fanwork, even! Be disciplined, make it fun, and you can learn anything given enough time. Make it, and people and opportunities will come! Don't go chasing fame or social media engagement. BE TRUE TO YOURSELF, as long as it isn't illegal/amoral and harming yourself/others, DO IT!
