I HAVE TROUBLE SPELLING MAYONAISSE
LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
Good Morning Newgrounds! For all of my fellow Americans out there I hope you had a fantastic 4th of July! I have been hard at work tweaking the redesign for the paper. It is still a work in progress so if there are some things that you like and don't like be sure to tell me. It is incredible that this paper has been around for an entire year already. Although some weeks have been missed, it has been a growing process. With that said if you're looking to beat the heat then spend it with Newgrounds! We have a Summer Animation Jam going on right now! It is different from others as being a tournament that harkens back to The Tournament of Flash Artists and The Newgrounds Annual Tournament of Animation (TOFA and NATA respectively). A Summer Game Jam is coming up with fundraising happening for it! RWappin is working on a new cartoon show called End Times. The Friday Night Funkin' Animation Jam winners have been announced. The Summer Writing Contest has begun. There is never a dull moment when you are on Newgrounds! More content than YouTube could ever provide to you, hell most of it you've probably seen on YouTube! With that being said, here are the hip happenings on Newgrounds!

This section of the paper needs an absolute overhaul. There should be more rewards and perks for the Supporters of Newgrounds. With that being said if you are one of Newgrounds Supporters what would you like to see here? I will continue doing the Supporter of the Week.
LATEST INTERVIEW: Tom Fulp
This is actually an older interview with Tom. Back in 2001 when Newgrounds was barely five years old. Seeing the aspirations he had for the site going forward and where it is today over 25 years later is remarkable.
ARTIST NEWS
I’m homeless, but safe.
@JohnMontoya is currently homeless. Some plans fell through when him and his brother decided to move out to California to further their careers. If you want to support him then please do what you can through his Patreon, Spotify, and Bandcamp.
"End Times" Pitch
@RWappin is working on a full fledged animated show entitled End Times. He doesn't know how he is going to fund this project, he's mainly throwing it out there. It will be a show involving adult themes. Here's a small synopsis of the show to give you an idea.
"There is a sense of dread in the air as everyone seems to think they are in the End Times- for their own reasons. The forces of darkness are making their move towards total global enslavement, but those who see the “end” as just the edge between their comfort zone and the unknown, will ascend."
-RWappin
Monthly Update: June 2021
@BenTibbetts has recently moved to Texas where he is teaching music. If you are looking to use Ben's music unlicensed then you can become a subscriber to his site for $4 a month and have access to the Audio Store. There he has posted a solo harp piece entitled Cloud City.
There are many coveted awards here on Newgrounds. The Daily Feature, for the best flash of that day. The Weekly User's Choice, the best flash for the week. The Review Crew Pick, the highest rated flash for that week. To win all three is called a sweep or the Triple Crown. The first movie on Newgrounds to do this was an action movie called Kong by @Raz. It was also the last movie he would post on Newgrounds.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl site up
After the smash hit Super Smash Bros. Melee, the third entry in the series was highly anticipated. There was a site that announced updates for the game piece by piece including new stages, items, characters, and game modes. We look back on Brawl being a weak entry in its series, back then though we were all excited. This one game would a lot of content here on Newgrounds.

Thank all of you for sticking it out with me for this long. I have been able to have a more relaxed writing schedule lately. I have recently changed jobs to another deli, this one being more clean, organized, and well managed. I am quite happy where I am now and no longer wake up with a sense of dread. I am happy to be posting this paper for all of you to read. I hope you enjoy the new redesign and tweaks I have done with it. Here's to another year of The Tank Tribune!
