Will there be a tool to coordinate with others on placing colors?

You can use templates and chat

Martineskirt, 12 hours ago

Cool. Will consider joining in with my !lemmydirectory then to promote it a bit.

pewgar_seemsimandroid, 8 days ago in we need a logo (and header) so you should drop your suggestions in the comments

Anyone made a calendar invite

I added an .ics link to canvas.fediverse.events but it looks like that doesn’t have great support :/

Thanks!

Last year I was bothered by the randomness of fonts even in single words and sentences, and started that font guide thing. Immediately afterwards I tried to plan a nicer looking frame for it that can fit more, and have it for this event if anyone wants that or cares.

I also want to get anyone’s opinions on changing letters to be better if you have ideas, because I’m sure I’m not the best at this but I want it to be appealing enough to use.

The main 2 things I tried to focus on is readability, and making sure each symbol can fit in 5x3 pixels.

Great! How much time will it last?

grant, 12 days ago

it’ll be 72 hours (12th @ midnight - 14th @ 11:49pm)

completely forgot to include that in the post

How big will the canvas be this year? There was a fair bit of whitespace last year, but even with minimal notice limited only to Lemmy, it was almost the perfect amount for everything to fit without overlapping

grant, 13 days ago (edited 13 days ago)

it’ll be 500x500 (from 1000x1000 last year)

Can you elaborate on the decision to make it that much smaller?

the_dopamine_fiend, 13 days ago in Canvas in 30 days 👀

Thank you! Been looking forward to another one.

threelonmusketeers, 13 days ago (edited 13 days ago) in Canvas in 30 days 👀

Yay, I’m so happy this is returning!

Dave, 13 days ago in Canvas in 30 days 👀

Whooo I’m excited!

deus, 14 days ago in Canvas in 30 days 👀

Wait, it’s been a year already since the last one? Damn

grant, 14 days ago in 2024 Canvas sale

I already have plans in the work to sell Canvas prints of this year’s and last year’s 🙏🎉

the proceeds from the print sales (and possibly other items) will go to funding Canvas itself (and maybe other fediverse.events things)

(more details related to this will come out within the next month most likely)

Would it be possible to turn this into a more general fundraiser? If possible it would be nice to he able to toss in a donation to a instance or project at Check out. It could be similar to stores offering to round up to support charity.

Not that I don’t want to support you and future events. Canvas events are really fun I just think we need to stop and appreciate everyone who makes the fediverse possible.
