Reminder to new and returning artists: we got an Oekaki board over here

also with the influx of new people from Xitter's shitass change, welcome!

hi, just got off xmas break with my family and found out that harbor was down all this time...😓 it should be back now, sorry for the trouble!

My first time properly contributing to an open source project wooo!! PinkSea is an oekaki board that you log into with your Bluesky/AtProto account. You post the drawings you made and people can reply to it with more drawings! Go have a look on pinksea.art and have fun 😊

i promised big things and we deliver! courtesy of @verti.blue, we have a completely revamped oekaki editor! the layout was changed to make it fit better with PinkSea and make it more usable! it's so pretty and pink!!! thank you so much to verti!!!! check it out now at pinksea.art!

small update :) we now have improved discord (and beyond!) embeds, using the activitypub embed functionality discord has (does this mean pinksea is now AP compatible?) we have some big things coming very soon too, so stay tuned!

hi hi! the newest PinkSea update is here!!! there's a lot that's changed, but let's begin with the most important! as has been teased for weeks now, customizable profiles are here! you can now set a nickname, bio and an avatar you've drawn right inside of PinkSea! how cool is that?

sneak peek at the next PinkSea update

long time no see, huh? with university out of my way for the next 3 months, i've finished the update that i've been working on a couple of months ago :) we finally have a simple, but much more complete search system! it's going to be extended in the future, but the days of finding tags are gone!

i am once again asking for help with PinkSea in the same vein as the "Post is gone" image, if any of you would want to contribute your art to PinkSea (with due credit, attribution, etc), I'd love a cute artwork to put up for when an account doesn't exist, is banned, etc.

thank you so much to @innerspiral.lol for mentioning us in her latest blogpost!!!! (which is really good btw you should absolutely read it)

thank you so so very much to @chaykak.bsky.social for mentioning us in his latest article!!! it's absolutely insane to see us there www.newyorker.com/magazine/202... it's also incredibly good, you should absolutely read it!! (and thank you to @jay.bsky.team for the kind words <3)

this is awesome! and really cool folks are hosting atmosphere projects on tangled.sh

love drawing? hate centralization? the PinkSea AppView and its frontend are now easily self-hostable thanks to a bunch of changes we've been working on for the past week or so! it's so easy that i've managed to deploy my own instance of PinkSea within just one minute, check it out

I like PinkSea-tan :3

#pinksea but i did this in mspaint for @prefetcher.miku.place

seeing the amount of love PinkSea-tan got makes me so happy ;w; thank you everyone i love every single piece of fanart i see of her (<------ i promise i am working on updates to PinkSea and not just yapping)

PinkSea-tan is soooo cute i love her 🩷

every good AppView needs an anime girl and PinkSea is no exception welcome our cute sharkgirl PinkSea-tan!!! she was designed by @cryztl.bsky.social and is absolutely wonderful and i love her so much!!! ;w; please treat her with utmost love

the PinkSea and harbor source code is now mirrored on @tangled.sh as well! it's a git platform built on top of atproto which is also insanely cool :) tangled.sh/@shinolabs.c... tangled.sh/@shinolabs.c...

hi! we're looking for people to help us test out and give feedback on the mobile version of the PinkSea editor! any OS, any form factor (phone, tablet), the more varied the feedback the better! 🙇 it's currently live at beta.pinksea.art

PinkSea's mobile editor is coming along nicely i think... based on top of @driftini.bsky.social's CSS modifications including two finger zoom and three finger pan gestures for convenience (im bad at drawing with my fingers)

hi! i've pushed a tiny update to PinkSea, fixing wrong behavior when uploading with an expired refresh token. this will now save your oekaki and ask you to log back in! no more lost artworks :) also we've updated the French translation courtesy of @youlinikki.bsky.social! thank you!!

got the pleasure to talk with Jeremy about PinkSea, the AT Protocol and the old internet! please check it out ^^

small pinksea update time! we've finally fixed the bug that causes the "finish" painter button to kick you back to the recent screen ^^; on top of that, we now have 3 new translations! hebrew, dutch and portuguese (brazil)!!! and some fixes to german! thank you to everyone who contributed! 🙇

thank you for the shoutout <3

PinkSea is now running on top of a custom ATProto image proxy! we've ditched cdn.bsky.app to be more reliant on only ourselves and introduced github.com/shinolabs/ha... instead please try out the site and let me know how it feels :)

what's that? another PinkSea update? within ONE day?? that's right! due to the amazing work of axiand @ GitHub we now have a search bar for tags on PinkSea! on top of that they've decided to redesign the oekaki upload page a bit to make it easier to understand! so cool!!! thank you!!!!

small PinkSea update! removing your posts is now available on the main instance! massive thanks to @glitchypsi.xyz for the amazing missing post image as well!!!

at last, drawing on pinksea from mobile I don't think I'll work much more on this myself, but feel free to contribute or anything on GitHub userstyles.world/style/20286/... greasyfork.org/en/scripts/5... github.com/Driftini/pin... #pinksea

PinkSea updates, weeee! this update finally brings the ability to display replies on user profiles! no longer are your replies hidden from the world! on top of that, we finally properly show rich embed cards in apps like discord, or even bluesky!
