Is there going to be a section on the frontpage for art?

Oh no!

Do you think there will be a better judgment system that will allow art into the portal? Or maybe some mods or something?

I think it will be like the audio portal, where artists need to have their work approved before they can start submitting, and then onmly the hand of Wade can stop them.

they're doing something like the 'blamming' system, where you get 'scouted' by the first person that votes on your work. i'm not really sure what the fuck it does yet, but i'm sure we'll figure out soon enough. but i really think they should scrap the voting/scored reviews

My thoughts on the matter are displayed thusly...

oh great I would love hank399232384732 to determine whether or not my work is newgrounds-worthy

Im sure it will be like the audio portal, where all the good stuff get attention, and everything else gets stuffed in the dark, where it can only be found via Newground's search engine.

this. I think removing the _/10 system would definitely encourage reviewers to actually provide criticism. Then again, I'm probably grossly overestimating the average NGer, as usual

Daveb0t · June 5, 2009 03:30 AM

Well as long as numbers are held over input, and honest input often tantamount to a review ban, then of course the majority of reviews will be worthless cocksucking. Really If they got rid of the numbers yet left a review count open people would put the effort into writing reviews and perhaps feel some obligation for criticism.

Of course only a small portion of the people will have anything insightful in their words, but still.

Also I hate tacking numbers onto complex opinions, and a single number makes it worse.

rtil · June 5, 2009 06:00 AM

they'll never get rid of the scoring system, but they should at least give authors the option to allow or disallow reviews. some people would be better off not hearing all the crap people have to say about their work

Im more waiting for the lit portal myself honestly.

If it's anything like the useless fantasies dA users write up, then you're bang on.

As long as the literature is legiable, and it isnt made up of increative fanfacs, Im cool. Same prediction with the lit portal remains the same as the art portal (with scoring and all).

I would just use the lit portal as another creative outlet. Cant upload much music, dont have Flash (Newgrounds hates my .msi setups ), but I still write rants at school in the morning (speak my mind).

ZekeySpaceyLizard · June 5, 2009 07:31 AM

by the time i clicked on the link tom sent me the 'portal' had been taken offline already

i'll stick with Artician for now and wait til campnorth comes back

psi43 · June 5, 2009 11:26 AM
