[2023] Thanks for joining! ( toast.ooo )

Thanks for joining in! The canvas is now finished!

I’m going to be leaving the canvas up and read-only for a couple days, but not too long.

This was incredibly fun to host, thank you all for participating! ♥

Future Events

I’d love to make this a yearly event. Expanding from just Lemmy to the entirety of the fediverse aswell!

I’ll reuse this Lemmy community & the Matrix space for that event

If you have suggestions for future events, post them in a comment on this post, each suggestion as it’s own comment so people can vote on them

It's over already!? I never even figured out how to find it, let alone contribute... :(

grant OP Mod ,

That seemed to be a major hiccup this time around, getting the word out there

my plan for next year's is to give 30 days and 7 day notice before the event starts

make sure you're subscribed to !canvas & in the Matrix space so you don't miss it next year

Honestly, I find it wholesome that everyone got their little space to draw without much fighting. Perhaps making the canvas increase in size by request /user numbers to accommodate newcomers instead of forcing them to draw over someone else artwork is what would make this event unique compared to r/place.

Blastasaurus ,

I like the native wheel with the pride maple leaf and Canada goose.

Also, way too many My Little Ponies lol

My little frog survived!

I know it's largely due to a smaller user base, and therefore smaller spread to overly popular personalities and groups, but this is so much nicer without the exceedingly large national flag patterns and huge streamer vanity projects.

ComfortablyGlum ,

Thank you for creating it! Honestly, I enjoyed this one more than r/place.

Autian ,

Great thing that there was much less vandalism. I was able to single-handedly put my work on there and didn't have to fix up anything at all.

Setarkus ,

Same, that was a nice surprise. I was worried that the green labyrinth would consume my build but it just started growing along the edges, so I helped it spread further afterwards :))

AbouBenAdhem ,

I did most of the labyrinth! My original idea was that it would be more of an interstitial background linking other artwork together.

Setarkus ,

Oh nice you're here :D

Love the idea, I had a lot of fun spreading it and being frustrated when I miscalculated the distance for the colors when getting near another build. Would you be willing to do it again next year / in the next event?

AbouBenAdhem ,

Yeah, it was fun!

Setarkus ,

Do you think "LabyrinthineCanvas" would be a fitting name for a community to organize? Well, if you'd be in for a community at all, could also just simply start it again next time ^^

AbouBenAdhem ,

I don’t know if there’s already a convention for naming Canvas-related communities, but it seems like it would make more sense for them to start with “Canvas” so they all sort together in peoples’ community lists.
