Hello Newgrounds.com! I am happy to be here on this wonderful site once more! :D

Finding this old account of mine was quite interesting! I have no idea what compelled me to make an account in 2017 of all times. I mainly say this because, at the time I wasn't an artist and just doodling in my sketchbook MGS characters and guns, nothing too serious. I didn't think about becoming a professional artist or posting my work online around then. It took 4 years for me to consider that idea, and then I hopped onto Newgrounds. With that statement, yes, I have been on Newgrounds before, but just at a later date. This account here being made when it was is quite strange and all a blur to me. What made me remember it was talking to colleagues of mine on an outing, and I remember an old name I used to go by in the late 2010s of the internet.

The name 'Flafuflop' came about when I took a class in Economics and Finances in High School. The teacher gave us an assignment to have our own business, keep a budget, and how we would run and promote our businesses. When asked what would my business name be and what it would be about, after some thinking I told him 'Flafuflop' and it would be about making Video Games and Animated shorts! He was bewildered by the name, and I understood, it's an odd name, but he gave me pointers on being unique with it haha~! The name is a mix of the words 'Flan' 'Kung fu' and 'Flop' with the mascot being a Kung fu fighting, dessert eating, Rabbit who was a white Holland Lop. Holland Lops are known for their floppy ears so that's where the 'Flop' comes from!

Now in terms of coming back to the site and the discussion with my colleagues, they were curious as to what I've done in terms of previous work and anything outside of that. There the conversation turned to Newgrounds, as this site is my foundation of where I started as an artist. My colleagues encouraged me to get back on and continue what I started online. I'm super thankful to them, not only have they been the best people to work with, but also wonderful people I'm fortunate to call friends. After that, I was going to create a new account! Thinking of a username, I decided it would be easy to use my old name and found this account here. Though the email was completely different, so I messaged support on Newgrounds, and managed to get through!

I've 'technically' given my usual 25 this year to Newgrounds, just under a different name ;) so once the new year comes, I'll give my dues to this wonderful site! Every time I give my 25 to Newgrounds, I get way back in return, not only in cash but love and support as well. I encourage others to do the same if they have the means!

ALSO THANK YOU TO @OrkOrk FOR SCOUTING ME! I wish P-Bot would tell you who scouts you in the email XD I had to figure it out, appreciate it, man!

If you know who I am, hello there it's good to see you again~!

If you don't know who I am, then I hope you get to know me and I know you~!

Happy Holidays everyone and may you all have a Happy New Year~!

Thank you so much, and lastly as I would always end my news post....

God bless Tom Fulp!

Thank you for this wonderful site you've created : )~<3
