I mean, come on.
Flash is ridiculously priced and i'm guessing that most Newgrounds users don't have jobs, so the vast majority of them must have an illegal copy of Macromedia flash.
I'd just like to clarify that mine isn't illegal. I got mine for christmas like a clever boy.:eek13: I still can't use it properly though lol.

Everybody these days pirate software, its because its too pricy, or either that people couldn't be bothered buying the software and they obtain it illegally.

there are quite a number of flash creaters not from flash many are free or reasonably priced so its not exactly a forgone conclusion they stole flash software.
Same with photoshop on many sites with graphic design as a category. I won't be surprised if Adobe starts doing what MS did with pirated Operating Systems with Photoshop, Flash, and other products.

All my programs are usually pirated, I mean c'mon they are too damn expensive. Wanting $200-$800 for Photoshop is just plain insane.
Yes, I got my photoshop copy illegally. As like pretty much everyone else here.

Let us all have a big bowl of marijouina in celebration of pirates!
I got my flash from internet too... I dunno if it's an illegal version... I think it isn't...
Let's smoke a little!!!!
there's probably LOTS of people on the site with the illegal versions.. its pretty common. I know several people who use an illegal version.

Some flash programs cost way too much, so im assuming that a large percentage of people on newgrounds have a pirated version. A lot of software, not only flash, is priced way too high.
