Hi all!

Canvas is an event that is like reddit's r/place, where users can paint one pixel at a time and we all work together to make some art. You can see more at last year's conclusion post.

You use your Lemmy account to log in, where it messages you a code to confirm it's you (no password required). This year they have a one account per person rule, so we will need all hands on deck!

We have a template for the design we have put together, you can jump straight to Canvas with the template enabled by clicking this link: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=162&y=328&zoom=4&tu=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.nz%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F497358ad-b655-4ae1-9e42-ea70c303a63e.png&tw=112&tx=100&ty=300&ts=ONE_TO_ONE

The event starts today (Friday) at 4pm, and runs for 72 hours.

If you use Matrix (or are willing to use Matrix) join the chatroom by following the instructions here.

We can also use this post for coordination, or if anyone is having trouble getting logged in or other issues.

Every pixel (and more) has been placed! Great work everyone :D

Amazing! Only 1/3 of the way in!

I'm playing with some sort of background for the [email protected] bit, am starting by extending the blue kiwi background leaving a white border around the text, but might end up doing all around the text and making the text white.

I threw a few pixels your way! Let me know if you would like some more help with it and if you have a template ready for it.

I'm in the process of continuing the lazer beam to the edge of the canvas, if you want to help with that?

I just threw this together, I think it will look better than the white outline around the black since there isn't really room for the outline around the text:

Template link: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=145&y=314&zoom=18&tu=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.nz%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2Fe9f88706-7609-481d-8d16-99a28b4c68a6.png&tw=75&tx=99&ty=307&ts=ONE_TO_ONE

It's supposed to fit perfectly over the existing logo and text, so hopefully the link works 🙂
