J'ai fait un tout petit drapeau français !

Moi j'ai fais le logo de piefed. Sinon, qui veut faire le logo des chatons voire le poulpe de peertube ?

@Mubelotix@jlai.lu si tu veux on peut faire le symbole phi à droite de lfi 2027 (par dessus le "c mwa")

Everyone is welcome in the Synthwave X Chiptune team to collaborate on the LukHash Home Arcade template !

• Template: Canvas has started! Template is here: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#tu=https%3A%2F%2Ffiles.catbox.moe%2Fi50c3p.png&tw=111&tx=390&ty=100&ts=ONE_TO_ONE&x=445.5&y=155.5&zoom=1
• Image file: https://files.catbox.moe/i50c3p.png
• Position: X=390, Y=100

It is either do the canvas or sit on the beach, winter camping with the kids, eating fresh mussels in butter and garlic

Sorry @grant@toast.ooo

Edit: sunset. Yes that is an active volcano in the middle

Seeing cursors is instantly gross. Is mine transmitted by default? Is there an option to not do that? Is it distinct from seeing other people's?

Attention everyone, make sure to set the coordinates of the template image to 0,0 when using Cotemplate. Multiple people already started drawing with offset because of this.

Woo!

Thanks for creating and hosting all this, my instance has been having a lot of fun with it :)

I'm still confused if I should wait to have 6 mixels and place them in batches, or place whenever a new pixel is available, my gut feeling tells me one every 30 seconds is more efficient?

Did the server go down ?

Not sure what to add... maybe this frog?

Better version since the quickly grabbed template is kinda wonky: https://www.spriters-resource.com/snes/chronotrigger/asset/3570/

Whenever I try to place a pixel it just errors out "invalid pixel location. Are you even on the canvas?"

Would a burning maple leaf, with smoke "particles" (pixels) spreading over the canvas (politely, not defacing) be too poignant?

@Undearius@lemmy.ca did a design in a previous year, and it might be fun to build on that:

This is what it looked like at the end in 2024:

Once people have an idea of what we want to do, we can add it to the CoTemplate. If we decide to relocate from our current location (as our current spot is quite small), the lemmy.nz area looks nice right now :)

The cotemplate site has a button near the top where you can copy the image link, and then paste it in the template field on Canvas (be sure to set the x and y offsets to 0). Then everyone knows exactly where to place pixels (or not 🪿)

Hello friends, I'm slowly working on adding a french flag (and potentially the francophonie logo on the white part) above the Canadian one you have on the bottom left of the canvas, hope that's okay!

Happy to have led the charge making the Canadian flag in the bottom left quadrant. Was the first thing I thought of adding. :) My maple leaf pixel art could probably use some work though lol

maple leaf needs to be bigger

I'm amazed my little floater animation from Conway's game of life survived. Solarpunks are nice 😁

Have fun everyone!

That seems like a short time to me. Did it last the same amount of time in other years?

Oh, this is awesome. I remember a post recently about wanting more community activities on Lemmy, and /r/Place was one of the things I said I'd missed the most.

For those who want to participate and can't figure it out (since there's no instructions) -

• Follow the link to http://canvas.fediverse.events/
• Ignore the immediate pop-up - it's not important for contributing to the artwork. Just click the X and move on.
• Look at the bottom of the page, it should say, "You are not logged in" with a Login button. Click that button, follow the instructions. Don't worry, it will not ask you for your password - it will ask for your full Fediverse handle (including the @lemmy.instance part) and it will send you a code instead.
• Check the inbox of whatever username you entered to find a message with a 5-digit code. Go back to the Canvas page and put in the code.
• Click the "approve" button that pops up next.
• After that, you should be logged in. Now you can contribute! Find a spot you want to add to, pick a color from the bottom row, and go for it! Note that if you leave the page idle for a bit, you may be asked to connect again.

There's a cool-down counter in the bottom left of 30 seconds, after which you'll earn another pixel to place. You can have up to 6 pixels ready to go. Once you have 6 pixels, the countdown disappears until you place one. If you lose connection or have to sign in again, it will save the pixels you accumulated. In writing this post I went through the process again to make sure I got it right, and I still had 6 pixels to use when I reconnected.

There's also an Undo button that appears immediately after placing a pixel, but it only lasts for a few seconds. If you accidentally click a pixel onto the image when you're just trying to scroll around, that button is your friend.

Note: I am not affiliated with this project in any way. I'm just sharing what I learned because it wasn't intuitive and I figure others might need a little help getting started.

Edit: Corrected the cool-down time.

Huh?
