Back in the 90s Newgrounds had short flash movies playing on the Front Page. From artists such as @Dave, @EdibleCastle, @chluaid, @JeremyLokken, @RupeeClock, @SickDeathFiend, @Sexual-Lobster, and @Stamper just to name a few!
"The history of Bytesize goes all the way back to the late 90s, when we ran a series of streaming "gag" cartoons on the front page of NG. At some point the cartoons went stale and the feature seemed obnoxious, so we scrapped it.
Almost a decade later, we reintroduced Bytesize with the big NG redesign launch of July, 2007. Only this time, it featured a much more expansive selection of cartoons by numerous artists from around the site. I decided it would be fun to give it a permanent place here in the Portal because it would also inevitably vanish from the front page."

The week can get people down sometimes. With all of the hustle and bustle and action packed drama that entails our lives, sometimes it's nice to just kickback and relax. Here are a few games to play to unwind on this Sunday Morning.
There have been some new additions to this issue of the paper! I decided to keep it on the lighter side with all of the content from winners of contests to look at, listen to, watch, and play! I won't be around the site much today, I'm hosting a Birthday Party for two of my friends and I! We all have birthdays in July so this is our group party! I really hope you enjoyed this issue despite its brevity. I must inform you though that next week will be a little different. There will still be a Sunday Issue covering Newgrounds last week, however there is something in store for Saturday, especially for you night owls! I hope you have a wonderful Sunday!

The Muskjam was extremely fun! I hope more animation jams are coming at greater frequency, because I have an itch to collab more, and its just the spike in activity this community needs. This is healthy momentum here that really helps the site thrive!
