tankerkiller125 a bit late though, because it was the subject of my livestream tonight. Hopefully it will still be compatible next year 🤞

Also, it's not complicated to replace the pumpkin with something else 😇

    Ah man, you were too late. Guess I can use this next year. Good job, though, neat idea.

    Ralkage This is exactly what I was thinking, I think the Flarum forum should host a Christmas tree contest or something of that nature, even better we could possibly modify the extension so that you can choose multiple colors and just use a blank white image as the background so it's a full blown drawing competition.

      tankerkiller125 I ended up using this at my meditation forum with a blank white image so that one can do quick little zen drawings like an enso. I'm the only one who uses my meditation forum though. 😆 But, one day someone might join and get a kick out of this.

      Version 0.2.0 released with the ability to sort by either date of upload or number of likes.

      Also improved performance, added pagination and preloading, improved the likes button design and made the modal work to see the list of all users who like when it goes into "and n more".

      Version 0.2.3 released with Flarum beta 16 compatibility and a new switch between painting and carving mode.

      You can watch me update the extension in today's live stream.

      If you want to use this new mode to paint on eggs, I have already prepared an image (from a CC0 license) with the correct size. You can use it to replace assets/extensions/clarkwinkelmann-carving-contest/pumpkin.jpg

      When I see extensions like these I imagine indian festivals 🥳

      matteocontrini maybe in a future update I should add a feature to prevent "cutting" outside of the pumpkin 😇

      I probably can't do anything to cutting the entire inside of the pumpkin though 😂

      You could also "cheat" to submit more advanced designs by editing a black and white picture in an external software and then substitute the base64 image in the submission with your external image 🤫

        That's what they did in the above screenshot indeed! 😄

          Leonart you can find and modify it in the assets folder of your forum. I don't remember which sized and file formats are valid though. If you use the same as the pumpkin it's the safest.
