That stupid 8hr cooldown and the literal quicktime event of a signup period back then made me hate this place a bit which led me to creating and coping with a Newgrounds account. Now I barely use the latter since it makes me feel small & my art seem bland as hell- but haven't scrapped it yet, sometimes it's fun to browse.
The moment my sheezy registration went through, I was so ecstatic I got lightheaded for a couple days.

Thank you to everyone appreciating the art I've tossed into this site. Really ain't much, but it's honest work.
