Main Information

Newgrounds is a Macromedia Flash animation site that allows its members to submit their flash work for display on the site instantly. Anyone with flash can sign up and submit their flash work for free.

Other members can vote on a person's flash, and can blam it if it does not have an acceptable score within 200 votes.

It has thousands of members, with hundreds of flsh peices and games being submitted every month, half of which are blammed.
