NOT A REAL TANK. YES A REAL TRIBUTE
Wiesi, 1977-2023
Sad news has hit Newgrounds. One of Newgrounds longest and beloved members @Wiesi has passed away. He was known on the site for the Shark series. He has contributed to Newgrounds in every aspect imaginable. Originally under the name @Wiesi-Mausland, he’s been with the site since 2002.

NEWGROUNDS SECRET SANTA 2023
The holiday season is around the corner! @Xinxinix is hosting this year’s Secret Santa once again! He started it alongside @@D3writo with extreme help from @Template88. An annual art-trade with multiple artists. There are some big changes this year.
BIG CHANGES
- We have a NG Secret Santa public Discord server for questions, as well as this forum.
- You MUST BE SCOUTED IN THE ART PORTAL this year !!!
- Your reference MUST BE UPLOADED TO THE ART PORTAL
- Your reference must be drawn by you and not by any kind of template software
- ABSOLUTELY NO AI ART OR THIRD PARTY CHARACTER CREATOR SOFTWARE
- NO panty shots or explicit boob (nothing rated M or promiscuous)
- ALL CHARACTER INFORMATION MUST BE ADDED TO THE USER PROFILE
- You CANNOT update your secret santa user profile once you're assigned a secret santa !!!
- If your reference makes the receiver uncomfortable, they are by no means obligated to draw it !!!
- All art forms (including GIFs, but not animation portal entries) are accepted as long as it's not a stolen asset
- You're encouraged to write "To:" and "From:" on your gift
- Reminder to upload your finished drawing to the Art Portal AFTER the big reveal
- We will be actively seeking feedback at the end of this event ^^
Other than these minor changes (and the whole automated system implemented by @PsychoGoldfish last year) we are on a fast track to having this as optimized as possible.
Revive the 2000s Collaboration
The 2000s had a unique art style to it. Where the 90’s were refusing to die and the new millennium was promising newer tech, even edgier content, and the future! @StationTerminal is looking to capture that time of history with a collaboration. There are no guidelines or set deadlines at the moment, so jump in!
$5000 prize pool - The Chosen One Tournament teaser!
@Hyun from The Dojo is hosting an animation tournament! The prize pool is set at $5,000. There’s only one round and one animation for you to submit. Judges include Weilin Zhang, Howard Wimshurst, Telepurte, Miccool, and Juny. The tournament begins on December 1st. Check out the video below to learn how to join the tournament. You not only have a chance at winning a cash prize, but your work will be viewed by some big industry animators.
This week's featured artist is @bernie-buddy. He has been on the site since 2007 and submitting artwork since 2018. Check out his works below! Give him a follow!

@Wiesi
During a period of Newgrounds time when the site was losing traffic to the rapid growth of social media, Wiesi never faltered. He constantly posted on Tom's news posts in the forums, left reviews and feedback whenever he had the time, and was constantly experimenting a lot with games on Newgrounds. His works were mentioned in the news and helped bring more eyes to the site with his Shark series. The legacy he left behind will always be remembered. Thank you Wiesi, for everything.
IT'S COMIC TIME
@SkyHawkins has been posting comics online since 2020. With the multi-image artwork update, they have been posting their comics here on Newgrounds! One being their ongoing series Exhaust. Check them out below!
Dark nectar of life.
Potent source of energy.
God I love coffee.
