We shall make an image, one pixel at a time
There's the MS Paint collab thread which is clearly artistic in nature (quite beautiful IMO), but this one is more of an experiment I'd like to see unfold.
RULES: 1) You must download and upload images as PNG files only! And with imgur preferably-- you must avoid JPEG artifacts like the plague. 2) You must place a pixel in the proximity of another pixel, do not leave more than 1-2px of white space between pixels. 3) One pixel at a time please, it will be hard to know if you cheated later on so scout's honour is awn ya. 4) Try to pick a colour similar or relevant to the surrounding pixels. !!!HAVE FUN, TRY TO BE HIVEMIND WITH IT AND LET'S WORK TOGETHER!!! (Starting from the very middle) This would take approximately 300,000 posts to finish the whole thing lmao but let's see what creature arises and aim to be interesting more than just getting it filled.

Re: We shall make an image, one pixel at a time
Bonus: Add a note to your post to influence the potential behaviour of the next pixel position. See, I made sure to have two black ones side by side, and it's right in the middle so... if the left half deviated to a black and white design and the right side exploded in colour that'd be kool but do what you WANT

Re: We shall make an image, one pixel at a time
Ya basically
Technically speaking they are just embedded in the forum post, so they are never actually hosted at FFR - consider this, let's say imgur deleted the pictures, they wouldn't show up anymore |

This might end up looking like a plant, or a flower.

Even at the very fast rate of 1 minute per pixel this would take a couple years to finish. If we go at 20 minutes, which is optimistic, we increase by an order of magnitude to decades. We'll all be retiring when this finishes.

Keep your chin up boys, this is a rewarding process. At the end of the process we'll all be able to print out quality buttons we can put this on, and attach to our senior citizen strollers.
Marble statues are not carved in a day. Though the greeks did not take turns letting each member of society strike the stone...

Re: We shall make an image, one pixel at a time
this could be any number of things
you should make it like 3 pixels per iteration next time because this is gonna take years to see any identity of something |

Re: We shall make an image, one pixel at a time
EDIT: Woops, first Ninja of the thread. I don't think you screwed it up m8, if anyone does it should be quite noticeable when zoomed in.
