LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Good Morning Newgrounds! I was unfortunately not able to produce a large issue for The Tank Tribune. My day job has been killer, plus July is always a hectic month and it’s bleeding into August. I’ve been planning a group birthday party for my brother and my best friend, we were all born in July. I don’t even have enough time to really write a letter here. Next week I should be able to focus on Newgrounds stuff and catch up a ton. This week’s Sunday Phonograph features submissions from the Audition Round of the Newgrounds Audio Deathmatch! Enjoy your morning Newgrounds!

@Razur-Draws has announced this year’s Newgrounds Midsummer Rumble. The name has been changed to SUMMERGROUNDS SHOWDOWN. It is a month-long art challenge where you draw a character from the prompt sheet for each day, starting August 1st to August 31st. Everyone can participate in the challenge! From Razur-Draws, here’s how it works.

GUIDELINES

• Each prompt theme is just a suggestion, you can draw whatever character you wish from that specific prompt.
• It's okay if you only draw the prompts you like the most, don't be afraid to skip a day if you don't feel like it.

New Calendar!

@PsychoGoldfish has released an update to the Calendar here on the site. This paper will still focus on the Calendar aspect with a link to the Calendar page, the paper will not be listing all upcoming events each week since it has become more streamlined. @liljim is working on a lot of things under the hood of Newgrounds. If you want to help out, become a Supporter here on Newgrounds.

This week’s featured artist is @Red-Dog456. They have a twisted gothic style that is quite unique. Check out their works below, give them a follow, and check out their art thread!

Clocks of the BBS 2024

@Little-Rena is getting ready for Clock Day this August with the 4th Anniversary of Clock of the BBS. The goal is to draw a clock persona of anything and send it to her. If you’re a Supporter you can be part of this BBS event and others in the Supporter Party. She has also been the host of the Newgrounds BBS Awards since 2019!

POLKAMANIA!

@RWappin has recently done an animated segment for Weird Al Yankovic’s newest music video, which you can watch below! He once did an animation for one of Weird Al’s songs entitled Albuquerque: THE MOVIE. He’s also been working with @psychicpebbles and @MichaelCusack on the show Smiling Friends.

@whimsical-wife is hosting a new collaboration. The goal is to draw a new variant of your favorite Pokemon. It can be regional, origin, or any other form that has been shown in the series. You will also come up with a new Pokedex entry as well. Here are the guidelines below.

GUIDELINES

1. You may draw a minimum of one Pokemon and a maximum of 3 Pokemon. Whether you draw 3 unique Pokemon or choose to create an entire evolution line is up to you.

2. The collab will be T-Rated, but only for darker themes in your Pokemon's Dex entry. No sexual themes or visual gore on your designs.

3. Only use regions that are referenced in actual Pokemon media. regions from the main games are fine, as well as regions from spin off titles. just dont make up a region.

4. You're allowed to use a Pokemon another person has used, but only if you select a different region or gimmick to base it off of. (i.e, if someone made a Unovan Charizard, it would still be okay for you to use Charizard just as long as it isn't based off of Unova.)

5. Please try to keep Dex entries brief! I'd say 180 characters is about the limit, but it's very much preferred if you dont push it for space reasons.

6. Submit your image with a transparent background! If you can't do that yourself, let me know and I'll try to make it transparent for you.

7. The maximum canvas size for entries is 1000 x 1000! going smaller is okay. you entry may be submitted before the collab goes up! the collab tag is #pokemon-variance-collab

8. The deadline is October 15th, 2024! hope that gives everyone enough time. The deadline may be extended if needed.

9. Both un-scouted and scouted artists are welcome, but you may have your entry turned down or asked to be revised if it seems you made something rushed and low quality just to get into the collab.

Tell Me Your Favorite Pokémon and I'll Describe Something About You!

@TheMusicalManiac is back again. This time she is going to describe something about you with your favorite Pokemon! She’s been pretty accurate once again. Share your favorite Pokemon and see what her mystical powers can do for you!
