um what

cool community based project, also am happy to see Joe coming back to the scene. he inexplicably disappears on a regular basis it seems.

Also cool that you are striving to meet other colleagues in the flash scene, i find meeting others that do flash really motivating and empowering.

looks pretty interesting.
id lend a hand.

ah, that picture of gerkinman masturbating.
i havent seen that in like a year.

laying on his bed. wrestling with his manhood.

That sounds like a cool project. I hope it really gets done, though. I remember FDA was doing a big follow-up to ASSWARP that never came into fruition.

I would really like to get involved in this, because I want to be forced out of my shitty tween garbage (it's fast and easy, but it's not the best I have to offer). Sadly, though, even if I had time, I wouldn't be surprised if I never got around to working on it. I've done pretty much nothing flash-wise this entire year, and I have had several scripts just waiting to get animated. Sad stuff.

Anyway, if you need some asshole who makes shitty cartoons to lend a helping hand that you aren't totally depending on, one of mine will be available (the other will be touching myself).

Whos gonna be working on it : D?

yeah, i remember back then when collabs were "cool", and they look really kickass. Sounds like a good idea, kudos.

Wow, even Zekey saw it, that picture must have spread like wild fire XD

Possible Musician...uhm...did you overlook me when I offered my shittyness on sheezy? Or is one enough already? ;(

I would have liked to take part, but I would bet you hjave quite a few people in mind before me.

"Wow, even Zekey saw it"

I SEE EVERYTHING
BECAUSE I HAVE EYES EVERYWHERE INCLUDING MY BUTT.

Rubberninja, there needs to be a verse about Hopkin Green Frog. I realize that lostfrog.org site has NOTHING to do with art or cartoons whatsoever...but I mean look at hopkin. He's so cute. He needs a shong all to his shelf.

Oh yeah, by the way.

I just wanted to note that the condom is lime flavour.

Don't eat that shit kids.

Shit, that's one epic news post!

Good luck with the project, I would never be able to pull off something that huge with my tiny attention span, but I'm sure you will.

I do miss the good times when collabs actually were good, too bad I sucked so much back then that I never got the chance to be involved in one.

So yeah, good luck!

Newgrounds has the power!
Cock Jokes are normal, Blams through the portal!
Newgrounds has the power!
Games, Toons, Collections! Give me satisfaction!

Would rock to see "Everything, by everyone" somewhere...

Most definitely want to be in this. Hopefully not to many of the ridiculously talented people around here will notice and there will be space left.

Loving the new intro so far.

Aight... didn't expect you to comment it though, almost no-one does comment me in some way BS... (Does that mean something?)

I just couldn't resist in posting the chorus. I simply love making these kind of parodies :)

Man, what is it with me and emoticons these days? I really should stop it...

"But I really don't want to have much/any basic motion tweened stuff in the collaboration, no offence"

None taken, and actually, I've gone over to FBF, I can't stand tweening anymore, I've studied various traditional animation books,(Must have read An Animators survival kit cover to cover six times already) and recently came off a six week course working with pencil and paper.

Edit: Thats 4 weeks, sorry, had the number six in my head.

So what do I have to do to impress you? Maybe I'll carve a duck from soap for you.

It took me an hour to read that. One hour someone else loved you.

So you know where Joanime has gone? And... Smiffy? OH WEE, that means that Joanimes mysterious vanishing is actually related to Smiffy's. If thats the case, maybe they decided to... get married? Become road roamers owning a Harley Davidson? Take care of a family restaurant somewhere in UK? Went over to something bigger than NG for TEH MONEH? >:D

Anyways onto the project: Im not good at flash, since i havent spent any time on learning that much and made only one (TheCrapAdventuresOfHammi). But what i wanted to say is, is there any possibility for you to consider about taking in artworks? Then i mean drawings, sketches, paintings, whatever that has been made on a single frame. Maybe you could have a collection of good art entries dedicated to the ol' skool flash artists that used to roam NG. I know it isnt any much (since flash and music are two of the most dominating subjects), but that would give other artists out there to express themselves. And it may could be entertaining for other people to click through the dedications to see what kind of creativity has been put into. Just a thought.

And lol at Gerkinman. I knew there was something about his name even tho its pronounced in a different manner XD

Hey Ross,

Well, I've always wanted to join collabs where people are as motivated as I am. But those are hard to find and when I do find them I'm usually too late. If you are planning something for the future you can always contact me. I'l be more then happy to join/help. Short parts like on collabs also give not only the opportunity to meet new people but also to try out new things.

regards,

Julio

Dude that sounds like a great idea, i think one of the reason i really went into animating was the chance to meet such a great community, im still new into it, but if there was a minimal thing i could help at i would be very glad to help out, and u gave me that old doubt of joanime and smiffy back =/, plz go ahead with ur idea nothing would rock more than a collab of the good times NG had, i would recomend ya to look at the NG audio portal artists some are pretty good, id recomend ya DavidOrr he makes pretty sweet music, as for vocalist i got no idea how to help.

I'll help out. I love animating frame by frame. I may be able to help with the timeline a bit, too. If you want me on the team, I'll start workin' on my part as soon as possible.

Btw, though Sheezy has tons of downtime, I love it to death.

Sounds cool, looking forward to it. BETTER HAVE GOOD AUTHORS AND NO FUCKING TWEEN WHORE FAGGOTS.

IM INTERESTED YO!

Wow. A return to the glory days of Collabs? Sounds almost too good to be true. As a user who's been visiting Newgrounds since 2000, this would be a dream come true. I honestly hope too see alot of brand new talent emerge in this, if that's possible. And of course the grand-daddies would need appearences. But I think it would be absolutely great if some of the more little known authors get a chance to really show their chops off to the community too. Plus it would help them make contacts with other uo-and-commings who could in turn make new good collabs.

Anyway, I'd be interested if there's room for me. If you take a look at my (only one) submission maybe you'll see something you like. And I should have 2, maybe 3 more comming out fairly quickly and soon.

- Ryan

hey good idea! i hope i can join :)

I'm very interested. In fact, I'm mostly interested in the wonchop getting keylogged thing considering im the one that linked him to it

get on aim we can talk about thiiis

Awesome. This sounds likes a great new collaboration that will hopefully inspire more collaberations to be more original.

I would love to see what you make for this! :D

Sweet deal - I want in baby sweets

You have given me a lot to think about. All this time I have been trying to join collabs. The last collab I tried to join (Sprite Tv 2) has died, mabye because I bring bad luck to people. I mean, I'm a terrible artist, my animating skills suck and lip sync... I too lazy to do it...
I would love to have my own collab, so I join other collabs to raise my b.a. It's easier then trying to compete with Blockhead or Aladin 3160. My halloween flash looks horrible and my ideas of great ideas are limited by my skills and my lazy personality...
How do you keep motivated?

O.o nice post, and that´s a good idea for a collab actually, I would like to lend you a hand if you need more animators >:c

So can anyone help?

I like your idea on this collab, although with this being a flash about Newgrounds, you would expect some mention of the Clocks vs Locks in it. Just a thought. : P

Recently, I too have been beginning to think that the age of flash collabs is coming to an end. Every time one gets started, nobody does their part other than just a couple. Unfortunately, I've been bitten by the "just a couple" part a few too many times.

Either way, best of luck.

that pictures makes me more and more angry the longer I look at it

I'm glad you're back around. :) Back when I was just learning the works of Flash, I remember it was you and the Flash Bros that got me inspired again to keep at it. I'm glad I did, it's probably the best thing I've ever done.

The song looks swell so far. I know I'd love to support if theres enough parts for many people to join in. Hopefully this whole issue with the flash community thing will heal by the time my generation leaves NG. I do remember that for a short while it was fun to work with the other artists, but now adays when I want to work with my flash friends the first things that come to their heads are:
1. How much money can we make from sponsorship?
2. Can we complete it in 1-2 months?
3. Can we put forth the least amount of effort because animating is hard.

Luckily, I got a lot of good underdog animators who actually want to put forth an effort for The Flathead Collab. It's nice to see that there are still people who just want to have fun with it.

I remember those days; I know exactly what you're talking about. Those projects are among my favourite works. This projects sounds like an excellent idea.

That's pretty big. If ya'll pull it off it'll be epic and an amazing accomplishment. :)
Still that's a shitload of work. I wouldn't mind seein' a list to all the peeps ya end up invitin'. This would be a great oppertunity for any undiscovered talent too eh?

Well, I had noticed that not that many collabs had been made in a while, or at least any GOOD collabs.

I've always wanted to be a part of these, but I'm horrible at flash.
I would love to talk with all of these flash artists, and discuss things, but it seems you have to actually be a good flash artist to be friends with a good flash artist. :(

Well, I wish you all good luck on this project. I can't wait to watch it!

Did Nef insist that she be blurred in the pic again?

Oh wow, this collaboration sounds pretty cool. I'd definately love to be a part of this if it's cool with you. Please let me know if there's still room for one more. I always miss these grand multi artist collabs I'd like to be a part of. BLAM FORMERS- One Love- NG 10th Anniversary- etc.

-HVH :D

Oh! almost forgot, what makes you qualified for the collab? any rules? i dunno i don't want to miss out on anything.

Wow. This is going to be epic.

: By the way, is that condom glow in the dark?

Needs a line about the Kitty Krew or maybe a small reference!

Wow, I would love to be involved in the collab. I'm new to flash and NG, really... so I'm not sure what historic aspect I could contribute. But I can draw! And I was doing really well with my first animation before my old laptop walked off. c.c; So I'd love the chance to do something like this. (Hopefully, I can get a new tablet this weekend, too. The old Wacom ran off with the old laptop. Forget dishes and spoons here, people!

Not to be sidetracked. ---I hope there is something a new artist can bring to the table. Please let me know! :) And whatever the case, good luck!

P.S. Considering the remark about Youtube, has anyone made a plug for NG there? Like, say, the popular flashes that were *ahem* acquired on Youtube (Charlie the Unicorn comes to mind) --- could read something like: You've seen this (flash) and that (flash), but the video quality stinks. And the load takes too long! --Originally shown at NewGrounds.com *plug* Less load time, better quality. Plus, you get to see the cool stuff before everyone else on Youtube! :P :D

Seriously, I have been kicking myself for not knowing about the place!! If it wasn't for the fact that I met Skaijo IRL, I don't know how long it'd be before I found NG.

LOVE THE LOGO AND THE IDEA!

Awesome Ross. Glad to be able to help out.

first off, you look really ugly in that picture lmfao.

Secondly, I would like to join that collab!!

um please.

I'm happy to see that you're responding to all the comments on this, so i'll put in my input.

It sounds like an awesome idea, but it also sounds like it's just bringing more attention to the already most popular artists, and everything people know already anyways. Don't you think it would be cool if you pointed out/mentioned a few of the underdogs, great projects that never got recognised, and other things away from the NG mainstream?? That would be covering the FULL history of it all.

Just a suggestion, this sounds like it will be an excellent collab.

i actually agree with notorious. i mean, of course keep some really classic and memorable NG moments from well known authors, but focusing on the unrecognisd and more underdog artists, but do a little reasearch and stuff would make it even more original and controversial as oppose to reinforming well known facts. Maybe it's ultimately too complex of a job to do the research, and way too difficult deciding which of the hundreds of unrecognisabley good works to include. But it's definately somthing you should consider.

Then again, restating the obviouse and well known is what most of us authors on this site end up doing Being that it's basically what we do when we make movie/game parodies, and being that this site is full of them haha. :P

yeah, i completely see your point, i just tend to look at both sides of things. my bad habbit. it would end up being kinda a lot of work for not the same result. i guess the best art about this kind of historical slide show type thing is seeing somthing or listening to the lyrics and laughing about those great memories shared by basically all newgrounders. not just have the audience watch the movie and go...

"um what?"

haha of course! it was just a figure of speech. :P lol

Hey, is the actual Gerkinman pic gonna be in this? Cos that's the one thing that's putting me off. Also where is the collab going to be made? In the forum or what?

tell me what i can do.

DO NOT CALL IT "We Didn't Start This Website", that's the YTMND version, like maybe "We Didn't Start the Portal". But, I could add some CC related stuff to it.

I just sent you a pm, but I might as well say it here:

I send you a sample of my work on sunday when I get access to my files again.

cheers.

can anyone take part? does ambition or skill level matter? and whats your standards of quality?

please let me know so i can make something that fits what you want for your collab.

I'm willing to drop whatever i'm doing to help out.

-PowerRangerYELLOW

Ross, it's adreniline from Sheezy. I've been permantly banned there so I cant see your links, but I would LOVE to be a part of this.

This is a really kick ass idea. I'd be honored to participate in such a collab! It would be my first collab in my 7 years on NG, and I would be glad if you were the one to "unvirginize" me.

: Tee hee

I'm liking the sound of this idea! Just don't forget to include a line about how coolboyman created strawberry clock but now thinks most of the followers are "fucking crazy" then I'll be happy XD

"Coolboyman starts a cult, now thinks they're a f*!*king joke" or something I dunno that's just off the top of my head

sounds cool

OMG, this si gonna rock so hard can't wait dude

I'd be willing to do something for this.

lol Gerkmin choking his chiken spread like that Vanessa hudgens pic and after seeing that i have only one thing to say to her...Fucking shave down south its a like a farm feild.

sounds cool! wish i could be in it :/

Hell, I'm in. Sadly XnC wasn't big enough to make it in, but I'm more than willing to help animate, play guitar, anything. Also, this would be PERFECT for the Rock Band Flash Game I'm working on! Just be sure to keep vocals, drums and gee-tar separate

Please do not include the star syndacyte. If you do so you will give them atention and make them feel like they are a part of newgrounds thus making them spam more and making everybody's day worse.

...as long as the lock legion is incorporated into this, i will be very happy camper. i think its wonderful that you're organizing something like this. i lso have noticed that recently there has been a lack of a feel of "community" here at newgrouds and hopefully this will pull us all closer together! :D

Wow , this is going to be opne of the most epic things on Newgrounds , since..No this is just gonna be the most epic thing on newgrounds full stop. Good luck with this seriously .Id ask to join but im unknown om Newgrounds as of far. Upsetting saying that i remember TSAH1 being released.
-MonkeyNuke

"Yeah I got it, I just didn't respond because I was busy getting ready for a night at the pub."

s'cool. Didn't expect a response, just sent you a link to my most recent stuff though.

Cheers.

As long as theres no "groups" involved, i want to join.
I don't think im considered popular enough to join.
:(

The "Collab era" never produced anything good, stop lying to yourself.....your youth was wasted.

Freaking awesome idea.

I agree, there have been a severe lack in collabs for the last couple of years. Every collab I've joined has, ultimately, failed, so I'd be interested to see how this one turns out. With such big names involved, though, I can't see how it WOULDN'T succeed.

It sounds more like a Flash community thing rather than a Historical Newgrounds Flash. Still, looking forward to it (;

Lyrics win; that's about all I can say.

"V-tech will even get a verse :O"

Ok, i support this collab :3
.....not gonna help..... but i support it!

hrmmm, i sent you an IM over AIM... no response, but whatever, i'd like to help out on this collab. i can help with animation... and maybe even vocals. i sang you a dumb song the other day... but dont wanna post it, heh. recently i have learned how to use these studio mics in sound booths, so i can get a pretty crisp sound, however i'm not sure if my vocals are gonna be what you're looking for :P

good luck with this bad boy, the more people involved in a collab, the harder it is to finish >_<

This sounds like a great project and I hope I'll be able to get involved, I'd work my little socks off.
