Canvas is lemmy's r/place. You can draw a pixel every minute and people work together to draw stuff. This post is about drawing the Australian flag when it starts.

Sounds cool, How'd it turn out

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It hasn't started yet, but this was last years result.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Was last year's goal to also draw the Australian flag, or something else?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

It was, But it was way bigger last year. This year it is smaller. Look bottom left at last years.

There's someone (not gonna post their name) trying very hard to mess up the union jack part of the flag. Anyone with some time to help and fix it up as they go. Where to find the UK people... maybe they can help too?

They're at it again...

Myself and firewire have been fixing the pixels as they've been placed. The guy stopped after about 90 mins. Although he just placed 6 pixels about 5 mins ago, which I immediately fixed up again.

Too many attacking now. Can't keep them off. Sorry I tried. :-(

Not sure who was filling in the navy blue with me all day, but it was a pleasure! Thanks for the help. But time for bed now.

You can lookup the "painter" for each pixel with Shift + Left-Click

I support the void.

@[email protected] is there some sort of automated script I can run with the template?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That would be against the rules

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

All good. Spent 8 hours doing it all by hand!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

People now attacking the flag in the last few hours before the end. Please come help clean up if anyone's available.
