Timelapses
This was a lot of fun! I (briefly) participated in the first reddit place, but I didn't find it anywhere near as friendly or engaging as I found this. Thanks to whoever started Calvin after I finished Hobbes and needed to take a break, I never would've gotten both done without you!
I see Nijika-chan, I'm happy.
Who is Nijika?
For the blind, she is their vision. For the deaf, she is their music. For the mute, she is their voice. For the anosmiac, she is their aroma. For the numb, she is their feeling. For the atrophied, she is their muscle.
For the starved, she is their sustenance. For the thirsty, she is their water. For the exhausted, she is their energy.
For the depressed, she is their happiness. For the disillusioned, she is their hope. For the pessimistic, she is their optimism.
For the disadvantaged, she is their champion. For the marginalised, she is their justice. For the oppressed, she is their salvation.
For the righteous, she is their symbol. For the enlightened, she is their muse. For the erudite, she is their education
Brilliant stuff. The only thing I don't like are the QR codes.
So many ponies. I love it
Reminds me of this big ass poster they have at my kids doctors office waiting area.

The result is pretty cool.
Thanks so much for hosting this! It was so much fun and really heartwarming to be witness to such community cooperation and respect. Also, I’m really impressed by some of the art on here! Great job! Thank you everyone!
Lol NIN
So 1994
1994? Reznor and Ross are still dropping albums and doing a lot of great work. They made the soundtrack for the new TMNT movie, helped produce an amazing Halsey album in If I Can't Have Love I Want Power, and while The Trilogy has a lot of filler I liked the tracks on Add Violence.
Bow down before the one you serve.
The banana for scale had me chucking. That was good
imho the canvas was a bit too large for the userbase. Sure it's cool that everyone got a spot but I liked the thrill of the "fights" every time two projects tried to occupy the same space. But I guess the "friendly nature" of canvas kind of reflects the current state of lemmy so it's okay :)
I agree. For me it's not the fights but the artworks that take the shape they can. As in Flags in non rectangle shapes and in general works adapting to their environment.
i made the mexico flag next to the duckgame's duck. In honor of the 2017 sombrero duck.
I made that "ni" adjacent to the Indian flag lol. Thank goodness nobody overtook it.
Nice, thank you!
Love that aphex twin always makes an appearance in these ❤️

Thanks for hosting and thanks for the fun ^^
It was great fun helping out. So exicted for the next one.
I was sad to see it being over so soon. Thank you for creating this :)
wouldn't yearly be too frequent?
Oh damn, fosters home for imaginary friends; that was a huge nostalgia hit. Was my favorite early Cartoon Network show (for Gen Z at least).
that was so fun! I'm glad a lot of people joined in
Thank you for creating it! Honestly, I enjoyed this one more than r/place.
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.
The lack of vandalism gives me the heartwarming mental imagery of passionate people drawing the things they love while being kind and understanding to one another. It makes me unreasonably happy
thank you grant and all devs/helpers!!!
Is there a higher quality version perchance?
edit: i now realize that my browser is doing some weird anti-aliasing
This is the source version
Well that was fun. I tried to help with programming.dev's checker pattern and I think I'm gonna see it on my dreams for a while. I also made the mario 3 frog suit cause why not.
