Thanks! I'm glad to see others excited about this.

I don't have a plan yet, but maybe something right to repair near there would work?

Cant fit all the communities so did mostly did ones I can make smaller. If theres more strength in terms of pixel placing that I know can contribute the area can be expanded but dont want to plan out more space than we can hold

Here's our current plan at lemmy.nz: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=162&y=344&zoom=18&tu=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.nz%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F497358ad-b655-4ae1-9e42-ea70c303a63e.png&tw=112&tx=100&ty=300

Looks like we might be a bit more ambitious than others πŸ˜†. We had good participation last time though.

Edit: Updated to remove white background and convert to new colour palette.

[-] eatham@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

The aussie flag is even bigger than your plan. hopefully we get it finished this time.

[-] Dave@lemmy.nz 2 points 4 months ago

Word on the street is no alts allowed this time. Last time we finished up our NZ stuff and tried to help you guys out, but without alts progress will be a lot slower!

[-] eatham@aussie.zone 2 points 4 months ago

Yep, no alts are allowed this year. Also, the Aussie flag is β…” the width of last time, so it should be a bit faster.

[-] Dave@lemmy.nz 2 points 4 months ago

A lot less space and potentially a lot more participants! Will be interesting to see if you need to defend it! The brits might come in and steal it for themselves πŸ˜†

You'll want to make the background transparent for any pixels you don't actually want to make sure are white.

[-] Dave@lemmy.nz 2 points 4 months ago

Ah, right, thanks!

Template flipped to avoid conflict with osu!

How does one create a shareable template? Do we upload a picture somewhere on the site? What format is required?

[-] grant@toast.ooo 6 points 4 months ago

On the website click on Settings then put an image URL in the field (png preferably as it has transparency, but jpeg does work), then copy the URL of the website

it should add it to the end of the url

[-] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 months ago

Thanks! Seems pretty nifty. Cool how any embeddable image can be overlaid at an arbitrary location on the canvas, rescaled to any size, and shared with a link. Well done!

Is there any way to load multiple templates at once to see if/how they overlap?

[-] grant@toast.ooo 3 points 4 months ago

there is not unfortunately, only one template can be loaded at once

I'm trying to paint the TF2 logo: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=-50&y=-203&zoom=9&tu=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fcommons%2Fthumb%2F4%2F48%2FTeam_Fortress_2_style_logo.svg%2F1024px-Team_Fortress_2_style_logo.svg.png&tw=25&tx=151&ty=43&ts=ONE_TO_ONE

Maybe someone else would like to help with that. I'm kinda struggling with picking the right colors, shouldn't there be a way to automatically pick the right color for the template?

Edit: It's done, now it only needs to be defended in case of vandalism :)

you don't see it here, but bronies have already that location

[-] Bigcheese@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Note that that's not from the brony faction, it's someone else. Our official template is just https://lemmy.brony.place/canvas

So far no one out of the 8 templates I've seen are overlapping, nice.

[-] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 months ago

SquaredCircle has one ready to go

Template

https://lemmy.zip/post/18747730

(Which hopefully encroaches on no ones, checked the placement as best I could.)

[-] TheGuyTM3@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 months ago

it encroaches the OSU! circle apparently
