Canvas is a yearly Fediverse event similar to Reddit’s Place - it’s a collaborative art project where any Fediverse user can place colored pixels on a shared canvas over a period of a few days. It has a dedicated community at [email protected] - the canvas itself is here.
This will be its third year; the first time, there were some minor furry drawings, and last year, we were a bit more organized, with a bit of collaboration between Pawb and Yiffit. The full canvas from last year can be seen here - we had a small spot carved out in the lower left corner, as well as a few scattered things all around.
I’d be great to actually start organized this year, and create something substantial together.
Anyone else interested in participating? Any thoughts on what we might make? Anyone with artistic skill want to sketch something out? If we can get a few ideas, maybe we vote on them prior to the event itself?
Here’s all of the ones that’ve been posted, plus a few others that furries will probably find familiar. Some (like the Yiffit logo) will need to be cleaned up if we end up using them, and some are obviously too large as they are (and will need to either be behind other elements or be trimmed down), but they’re all using the right palette.
I’ve got them in separate layers in aseprite and I don’t mind making the final template / doing the cleanup, but I’d like to get some feedback from folks on arrangement. I’m a pretty shit artist.
Even if you want to just toss things in a rough position in MS Paint, that’s fine - input needed.
Ethanol, tblFlip, l_b_i: If you want to get your sonas or favorite character included, I’ll take care of pixelifying it for you, just give me a source image (ideally with high contrast).

Just realized I didn’t have OmegaMouse’s pixel art version in there. This is what it looks like when reduced to the Canvas palette - it’s workable, but it’d need some work. Up to you which one you prefer.
