Newgrounds is a website hosted in Glenside, Pennsylvania,[1] United States. Founded in 1995 by Tom Fulp, the site hosts a variety of animations, games, art and music from users worldwide. On April 6, 2000, the site became the first automated content-upload website on the internet, innovating with a voting and review system.[2] On April 20, 2021, the site experienced a major crash and outage due to the rhythm game Friday Night Funkin' being updated to include a level featuring the Tankmen, notable Newgrounds mascots.[3] on April 7, 2000, the portal system was introduced in order to let artists upload their work without requesting.[4]
