Newgrounds is an independent website with 30 years of history. We don’t sell or share your personal data and we don’t do any weird tracking for personalized ads. Our goal is to be 100% ad-free, ideally with a surplus to go towards prizes or bringing back our rev-share system.
We can’t do this without your help!
To hopefully win you over, we’ve developed a number of Supporter perks:
⛔ No Ads
Browse NG without ads, which we have less and less of nowadays, however you can also avoid ads asking you to become a supporter!
🥳 Takeover Tuesday
Every Tuesday, each Supporter can feature one item from NG directly on the front page.
🗳️ Monthly Voting
If you're a Supporter and you voted in a given month, you will be guaranteed a spot on the jury to select the Best of the Month.
🟧 Custom Profile Picture Shape
Via the Edit button on the user page, Supporters can click the Icon Options button to choose from a variety of profile shapes. Your profile picture will also have a color outline based on the link color you select for your page.
⭐ Supporter Badge
A special badge will appear next to your name on your user page and on the forums. After one year of Support you will also collect a year-specific badge to appear on your trophies page.
✏️ Username Change
