Programming.Dev

Im going to be trying to set up a tech corner similar to what Programming.Dev did last year with the dark theme zone. Any groups who want to join on around the area feel free to reach out and we can do stuff like merge templates

One to one: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=378&y=423&zoom=27&tu=https%3A%2F%2Fbytes.programming.dev%2Ffiles%2F1b2ba85c-98c7-4f5c-bb5e-47840aa24f1f&tw=66&tx=320&ty=420&ts=ONE_TO_ONE

I don't have a plan yet, but maybe something right to repair near there would work?

Was scrolling though some older posts from last year, and came across @[email protected]'s idea to do the Arecibo message. So, here it is! Centered on the right edge because why not?

Thanks! I'm glad to see others excited about this.

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 😆. We had good participation last time though.

Edit: Updated to remove white background and convert to new colour palette.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

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

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

Word on the street is no alts allowed this time. Last time we finished up our NZ stuff and tried to help you guys out, but without alts progress will be a lot slower!

[–] eatham 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yep, no alts are allowed this year. Also, the Aussie flag is ⅔ the width of last time, so it should be a bit faster.

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

A lot less space and potentially a lot more participants! Will be interesting to see if you need to defend it! The brits might come in and steal it for themselves 😆

[–] eatham 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The Brits will definitly finish the union Jack for us :) . Hopefully they help with the rest of the flag. I doubt we will have to defend much, and I'm fine with small stuff on the flag like the fuck sped last year, as long as they aren't over the stars and are decently small.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

It will be interesting to see what the participation level is like. There are a lot less people on Lemmy than last year, but with the whole Fediverse able to participate this year we might get a lot of people joining. With the smaller canvas, I hope we don't have to defend as it makes it less fun, but time will tell.

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months 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 3 months 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 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months 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.

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 :)
