Pawb.social is well on it's way to making an icon in the bottom left, anybody got some ideas for what we could do? Maybe a pixel version of our yeen, or something more suggestive?

something more suggestive

Hey, @[email protected] - if you're still in the mood to place some pixels, want to add a tube of lipstick and/or a knotted rope over there somewhere? :3

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Sure, there's a little space left around the icon, perhaps a small knotted rope diagonally between the yiffit.net text and the kiwi lazer?

I'm not sure where to start with this one, if you have any design in mind let me know :3

If we go with the knot emoji idea, there's this one:

In fact, we can fit both emoji in that spot:

Maybe putting a black background the knot would make it pop more.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Its interesting the different renders for unicode. To me the unicode rope is a slanted to the right blue figure 8 with a slightly wavy line through the middle.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

That's definitely the one I'm most familiar with, too. You can see all the various designs here!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Oh yeah I see! Pops okay on white to my eye. I'll be sure to place some pixels uwu

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's subtle but that's what makes it fun. Someone who doesn't 'know' could see it and think nothing of it. Then they can make the connection and have an "Omg eww!" moment. ;)

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Honestly I'm a little lost on the significance of the lipstick lol, is it just supposed to represent red as in red knot?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Yeah, the lipstick is even less subtle than the knot, really. That emoji is probably used more to refer to a dog's penis than for whatever its actual intended purpose was.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I don't spend much time on social media, but I don't think I've ever seen the lipstick emoji used. Intuition would say the fashion world using it would greatly outpace the furry world using it.

Edit: eggplant and peach on the other hand...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Oh right I vaguely recall that now, haha. Not used much around my circles I guess.

Also .nz wants their laser lol

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Their laser isn't even straight, clearly they didn't care about it too much. That and, it goes behind everything else, so it'd be weird if it went over a foreground object.

If you folks are bored after this is done, I'm going to add the charmander to the Pokemon Red/Blue area:

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Oh hell yeah

Luv charmander

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Can't find anyone on Matrix who's working on that person right above him; hopefully they won't object to the slight overlap. They didn't have their design outlined. :|

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Ahh they'll be fine, if you've ever done Reddit's r/place that was alll overlap and wars lmao, so peaceful and respectful here

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Far less people here. That's what makes this more fun, in my opinion. We'd never keep that furry installation unmolested on Reddit. Heh

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

happy to help, thanks for the templates.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

And to you, I'm done for a while I gotta sleep real bad. Feel free to reply later if there's anything else you'd like help with :3

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Thought you might find this amusing (from the Matrix server):

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

How far are you planning to go with that background?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

At least 1 pixel above the Pawb logo, and over to the green flag beside us (and around the small ace flag). I'm also repairing .nz's laser; if you're working on the trans flag, I've been trying to contact you via Matrix, you can reach me there. The laser is a few pixels off from where it should be (it's crooked); I have a template for it showing where it's going to be.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

hmm, lemmy must be acting up, I don't see anything after your :

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Are you on web or on an app? I've heard some apps have trouble with in-line images.

Someone posted a screenshot of the Yiffit area on the canvas (with the emojis we added yesterday), with the message "I thought there was a surprising lack of cock drawings on the canvas, then I saw yiffit's stuff... they really know how to fly under the radar there".

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Default web client. The image is at http://pawb.social/pictrs/image/3628803c-c7c2-485b-ac99-a4d3b67b7c86.png, not https: The response in the browser is NS_ERROR_INTERCEPTION_FAILED. I don't know why pawb supports http: connections.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Huh, that's wild. Can you see this one, out of curiosity?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yep, and I bet if you modify your original comment (add an s) I could see that too. And I think my_hat_stinks has outed themselves if they understand the references.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

The original one was submitted from an app, whereas the latest one was submitted via web, so maybe that's the problem - the app seems to default to http://.

@[email protected], @l_[email protected], @[email protected]

If any of you are in the mood to draw a bit more before it ends tonight, we started filling in the background of the furry corner with a maroon color, then the trans flag came in and started to fill things in, but it looks like it's mostly been abandoned, or at the very least isn't going to be finished or cleaned up before the event ends... Nobody's touched it for hours. Currently thinking we might try to finish filling this area maroon, ideally all the way up to the bottom of the character over the Riolu). Your yeen is looking a little sad at the moment and it'd be rad to give him(?) a cleaner background to live on.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

I was asleep as well, but looks like you got it sorted pretty good :3

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Sorry, I was asleep already. I am in UTC+02:00.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

No worries! Thanks for the help with all the stuff in that corner!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

I made a rough mock up of the icon above pawb.social, note that the colours are not exact to what you can pick on Canvas:

https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=7&y=377&zoom=6&tu=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FtwaVfMb.png&tw=42&tx=0&ty=366&ts=SOURCE

spoiler

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Would it make more sense to have a uniform medium brown with a black nose and white eye?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

As in brown (highlighted) rather than chocolate?

Testing out the colours and I'd probably say that's closest

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

At a glance I think that looks better.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I think we have a design sorted colours and all on the right:

using peach as the main colour /u/[email protected] ?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You can probably keep the highlight on the ear. Use whats currently done as a baseline. The template should be updated though.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

Template has been updated <3

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

I mean, if there is enough people, sure. But it might just be better to help pawb out. BTW the name "Amne" won my poll for our Yeen's name. [email protected]

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

ah, I knew there was a name for our yeen somewhere! Pawb.social seems to be just fine at the moment, I suspect they'll be done early based on their progress, assuming they don't have to defend their space much.
