Hello everyone. This is yet another post explaining my absence. Things with Rex and I have been going well. I'll tell him you all said hi. On a bitter note though, I was fighting a head cold which turned into a full on cold, which I am now just getting over. My apologies on that front.

Which great news, The Tank Tribune will be back with a brand new issue next week with new improvements made to it. Tom has been making a lot of updates to the Playlists feature which is a BIG deal for The Tank Tribune. I am also looking to expand it further. Look forward to that. With the closing of the General Forum, I really have been trying to integrate the community into the site more. We have tons of creators here, all working hard on their creations. Yet, that's not all that builds Newgrounds. Viewers are just as important to the site as those who make content for it. I think a lot of us lose focus on that from time to time.

We're a tight knit community. A place on the Internet that survived the dot com bubble, became vastly popular during the Internet boon of 2007, and has only grown in time. Sure, it may be viewed as niche among others. It is the best place to share your works though, with the Tumblr exodus and people slowly leaving DeviantArt to come give Newgrounds a try.

At first this just started off as a paper to bring the latest to Newgrounds. Over time though it became a place to highlight so many people. The animators, programmers, developers, voice actors, artists, musicians, writers, and all those who just simply bring a smile to people when they come online.

There is a grandeur to this site. One I am proud to be a part of. Thank you all for your patience and understanding. Life is wonderful. I love you all.

See you next week!
