So at the prodding of a friend in my Discord channel I've decided to make a Newgrounds account! Let's see how this goes...
I'll probably upload HQ renders of some of my works here! Not sure how to display animations properly here (that aren't actual "movies"), but we'll see.
This site's great, imo.
To upload little loops, you usually just wanna upload a gif to the art portal.
Although no one's gonna slap you if you upload it to the movie portal if there's sound involved.
Hope you find this site chill, and visit the BBS every now and then.
Gifs are generally painful for my 3D models (too many colors), gifs might reach up to 40 MB and encoding takes forever.
@Amni3D @HeatPhoenix I see.. I love Sketchfab, but I wonder how easy shader work is with it, and if it's still relevant.
I think the art portal is just more convenient for specific pieces. Personally I'd just eat the file size and upload to the Art portal anyway. If you're gonna upload to the movie portal, I'd recommend it be like a compilation to make use of the format more.

Hooooly!. WELCOME TO NEWGROUNDS!.
AND damn I must say, some nice art work you do. I hope you enjoy it here on Newgrounds :). Have a nice day :7
