syco_link Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 Hi, can someone tell me how to download flashes from newgrounds? I heard that you had to go to page source and look for the .swf file, there is blue writing but it's not downloadable. Does anyone know how to do it?
Andrew Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 When you find the link, copy it and then paste it into either the browser's address bar, or a download manager.
syco_link Posted March 12, 2006 Author Posted March 12, 2006 I'm sorry, i tried to it but i'm so very stuck. Could you tell me what you use and give me step by step guide? (I have firefox and i downloaded FlashGot if that helps)
RoadKill Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 I don't know about firefox, but in IE or any browser that uses IE, simply download the Flash Saving Plugin ( http://www.unhsolutions.com/Flash-Saving-Plugin/index.html ) and just.. well, save flashes.
syco_link Posted March 12, 2006 Author Posted March 12, 2006 That's just my luck, whenever i use IE it diverts me to this NTL dial up wizard.
RoadKill Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 This is unfortunate, however I recommend you go into IE, cancel the living fuck out of that connect box, and click Tools>Internet Options, then select that NTL connection under the "Connections" tab, and click "Never dial a connection". Then it shouldn't keep harassing you.
syco_link Posted March 12, 2006 Author Posted March 12, 2006 No, when i click IE, it closes the IE window and comes up with the NTL one (which fills the <b>whole</b> screen.
syco_link Posted March 12, 2006 Author Posted March 12, 2006 Gah, i've searched and downloaded loads of programs and i have not managed to download one flash :'(
syco_link Posted March 12, 2006 Author Posted March 12, 2006 Grrrrrrrr, it says to put in the URL, so i put in - javascript:OpenPortalContentWin(285267, 300, 400, '285267_ultimateshowdown.swf - and it says its invalid.
Andrew Posted March 12, 2006 Posted March 12, 2006 Grrrrrrrr, it says to put in the URL, so i put in - javascript:OpenPortalContentWin(285267, 300, 400, '285267_ultimateshowdown.swf - and it says its invalid. That's not an url........ Link me to the webpage and I'll try to pull it out of the source for you...
Nucleus Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 And if you can't get anything to work, you can download The Ultimate Showdown here: http://www.nata2.info/?path=humor%2Fflash Just rightclick on it and save as.

Andrew Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Yeah, in future when trying to find embedded flash/videos/whatever, just look for: <EMBED src="link">
syco_link Posted March 13, 2006 Author Posted March 13, 2006 I really only want to know how to get them off newground. The link is: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/285267 Oh and when i was told to go on the upload thing and right click and save it, that did not work. When i right clicked it was all the flash player options i couldn't find a save thing anywhere.
Mr_Odwin Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Click the link I gave. In Firefox go to the top of your browser window. Find the File menu, then choose the Save Page as ... entry. All done. (I don't know about Internet Explorer.)
