[https://web.archive.org/web/20110427142242/http://www.newgrounds.com/ Newgrounds] is a very popular [[Web Animation]] and [[Web Games]] site, where you'll find nearly 200,000 Flash animations and games submitted, watched and played by over 1,500,000 users. It's quite big, in other words. The site's owner, Tom Fulp, started the site to showcase his flash in the late '90s, but soon other artists began to ask him if they could appear in the site too.
This eventually lead to the creation of the internet's first automated portal, where users submit their flash to the site and users of the site then vote to see if the animation should continue on the site ('saved') or should be deleted ('blammed'). The site has grown considerably since then.

Newgrounds also features audio portal where people can listen and download user-made songs for free and use it in their works. They also have an art portal where the content differs greatly from the art found in [[Deviant ART]].
Newgrounds user [http://thewax70.newgrounds.com/ thewax70] captures the spirit of the site and its motto quite effectively in [https://web.archive.org/web/20130902035328/http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/487854 this Flash animation], which features more than 40 of Newgrounds' original animations and games.
Newgrounds recently achieved [[Death by Gluttony]] by attempting to host the [[Homestuck]] animation ''[S]: Cascade.'' [[Schmuck Bait|You would think they'd know better than that.]]
Line 92:
We could list the number of tropes used on Newgrounds, but given that it has so many movies, that would probably list every trope ''ever''.
There is also a fan made [[The Wiki Rule|wiki]], which has recently undergone some [[Wiki Magic]].[https://web.archive.org/web/20180628105805/http://newgrounds.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page
