The image found below was anonymously leaked by a staff member of the Newgrounds team earlier today. It doesn't seem like much at a glance, but what might this mean for the future of Newgrounds? If credible, this could suggest some drastic changes to come for the site's graphic style and layout, along with a few other things:
- The current "Everything, by everyone" slogan will remain.
- The famous tank logo will remain, for the most part, unchanged (artistic renditions aside).
- Various shades of orange and grey appear to remain the site's dominant colors.
- Newgrounds may be adopting a highly "grungey" theme.
Perhaps the most surprising factor here is how significantly different this image is, compared to past leaked screenshots and the recent BETA testing images that have been posted to various sites on the web.
I was lucky enough to catch both Tom and Wade Fulp as they were leaving Newgrounds HQ in Glenside, Pennsylvania. Upon speculation of the leaked image Tom commented, "That looks like a still from the animation we were planning to use on our temporary trans- OUCH! I've never seen that before in my life."
