Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

A couple of days ago, I submitted a slightly modified version of TRANSMOGRIFIERS to the Nicktoons Network Animation Festival 2008. I don't expect it to win, but I can't help fighting with myself in my head over whether I have a good chance of actually being accepted. If over 80 animations were being accepted like the first year, that would be different, but last year there were only 30. Since the number goes down every year, it's most likely that only twenty-something videos will be accepted. Caculating the exact number logarithmically, it shall probably be 27. Of course, it would be very nice if they went back up, right? Onward and Upward and all that, right? See, it's different here on Newgrounds. We don't get hundreds of awesome submissions a day with a few hand picked by the Fulps to be displayed on the site. We get Everything by Everyone.

Will TRANSMOGRIFIERS be accepted? Will it not? How does its animation quality compare to some of the other Flashes that have been accepted in previous years? AAHGH! I can't tell! The styles are too dfiferent! And I won't even know if my Flash made the cut until OCTOBER!

Looking at other previously accepted animations, they're usually quite well animated but not really that funny. A good exception was A Peach for the Teach, which was unexpectedly nicely nightmarish. And the peach was so CUUUUTE!

I think you have a great chance of winning, so you'd better win. Otherwise I will personally go beat the stuffing out of Nicktoons.

Look at precious winning entry's and compare it to your flash.
Does it have as good animation, good humor... Then you may have a chance.

A peach for the teach was funny.

The stuff on the front page isn't actually hand picked. It has something to do with popularity, probably just votes.
Good luck with the festival, though I've never heard of it before.

Yes, it is. It is hand picked.

hey, your walrusguy! i reconize your voice from the transmogifiers. your a youtube poop legend! sorry...

back on topic, the Nicktoons Network Animation Festival would probably accapt your cartoon, i mean, most of the cartoons i see them accept aren't even colored sometimes. so i'm sure that your cartoon, colored and shaded, should have a good chance.
