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.

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

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Ah, right, thanks!

Template flipped to avoid conflict with osu!

Damn, Nightmare Moon vs Daybreaker? That's gonna be epic!

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

No worries! You've already done more than is expected!

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

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

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

I'm currently building a small Czech flag over here if someone wants to help (happy to make edits)

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 :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

TF2 currently under attack by the aussies. I'm going to bed right now, so I can't defend it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Thanks for letting me now and your help!

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.)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

it encroaches the OSU! circle apparently

[–] GeekFTW 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Do you have a link for their template so I can try and adjust mine? Edit: nvm found it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago
