So is Newgrounds like Steam but with social media? Or what? I mean I'm posting my art here and all but I checked and saw things like "medals" and "xp" kind of like Steam....
I guess I haven't actually learned anything...I'm here moving from DeviantArt so...yeah...
@thandc Fair enough. My next tip: Unpublish the 3rd party crap, then pick up a pencil. Or Krita, or Blender, or whatever art program you can find, and keep learning until you can match the quality of those assets or exceed them tenfold.

Newgrounds offers four types of content, movies, games, audio, and art, so in a way, it's pretty much a combination of sites like YouTube, DeviantArt, Steam, Soundcloud, etc. It actually predates all of those sites/platforms, originating as a portal for hosting Flash SWF animations and games.
I also want to add that scene creator programs such as Koikatsu Party, as well as extensive use of third-party assets over your own, are not allowed on Newgrounds. You need to be creating your work primarily from scratch, like you would with a 2D illustration.
