I make generators on Perchance.org and do a bunch of other cool things.

This will forever be recorded as one of the most exciting events to participate in for my whole life. I've never been this happy and excited before. It is fun and intriguing just to be able to explore and draw a bunch of pixels into a public canvas just like grabbing squares (pixels) and putting it into a giant block of land (the canvas) to draw art with.

Great job! 😃

On a side note, I would say this is the very first time I have ever experienced a live canvas event like this, I learned about the mechanism of placing pixels and everything. I'm pretty glad I was brought to Lemmy then headed out my job to it (creating an account etc.) and then brought to the canvas event, I got excited when @eatham@aussie.zone first told me about the event. I've been interested to do this kind of stuff, and overall, that was pretty exciting after all! 😃

5 more...

I'm also filling a bunch of small available blank spaces with mini abstract/custom flags

I also love how everything is getting more complete on its own. I always look around when I'm waiting for the pixel cooldown.

Good ranking!

Using some analysis tools, my template has 1356 pixels to draw. I spent parts of pixels on my drawing, and the rest on everything else. Thought I was only placing around ~1000 pixels during the event.

In addition, I'm quoting from what I wrote in the News & Updates section of my generator hub page:

But, in the end, I was able to put all of them together, a piece of history of my entire generator-making journey, into a part of a large collaborative canvas event! It was also really fun and I was able to interact with people from across the entire Fediverse, and it was also the very first time I experienced such things like that.

I would suggest a small countdown to the end of the event on the place where the pixels count and coordinates belong (circled below), only displaying during the event.

I'll probably add a shading behind the text (especially on the "HUGE UPDATE" part) to make it more visually appealing and not to interfere more with the overlapping flag

Yay! Now it's only <2 hours and 30 minutes left to go
