Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 07-08-2021

Ok. I've had an idea. It may be nonsense. It may be brilliant. But I need help to test it!

The Concept:
A describer and a painter are paired up for the duration (maybe a week or 2 weeks). 

A single starting image is divided into 4, 9 or 16 pieces. Or however many pairs had signed up. 

All PMs would go through the host, as per usual MSPaint. 

Each describer receives a piece of the overall image, along with it's position (top right, for example). The usual 10 word description is done.

The associated painter gets the position plus the description. Maybe dimensions? Might be too complicated, so let's say whether it's square or rectangular (important later). Paint as usual. 

This image is then sent back to the describer. Another 10 words can now be used to help adjust to look more like the original. Possibly an option to adjust or start over? If adjusting, the painter will reuse their first image, if starting over, well they start over...

The new details are sent back to the painter. They either adjust their first image with the further description, or start over using both descriptions.

Repeat once more, so 3 descriptions/paintings in total.

The final paintings would be combined, with resizing etc done by the host so they fit together as a single image.

Reveal would be... Original image, then either each round from each pair or each pairs 3 rounds, then the final combined image!

So! I need 8 volunteers, 4 painters and 4 describers, to be my Guinea pigs help me test this out.

Who's in?!

I'll describe!  Cool


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 07-08-2021

Open to questions, comments, constructive criticism and feedback!

Been thinking again, might be more exciting to rotate the images to different describers each round, forget about trying to match it up to the original


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - Kol - 07-08-2021

Cool concept, sure put me down for either please nothing.


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 07-08-2021

Thanks @Kol Big Grin


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - Neowise - 08-08-2021

in


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 09-08-2021

We've got Leggy, Kol and Neo. Who else would like to help?

It'll just be 3 descriptions or paintings, won't be putting any time limits on it as it's really to test out the concept, will likely use a reasonably easy image too


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - Trigger - 09-08-2021

I can throw some descriptions around if needed


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 09-08-2021

Thanks Trigger Smile

There's no rush on this one

okay, lets go........


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - cee_jay - 12-08-2021

I have a problem. Left right confusion reigns supreme here. Is it as you look at the picture?Big Grin is there also a middle, or is it top right/left into the middle of top and bottom?


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 12-08-2021

The image will be split in 4, and left to right as you see it Wink

Top Left Top Right
Bottom Left Bottom Right



RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 12-08-2021

I'll sort an image this evening and get the ball rolling Smile


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - Leg End Reject - 12-08-2021

This is going to go spectacularly wrong in the best possible ways! Big Grin


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 12-08-2021

I hope so!


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 12-08-2021

Ok, I have a test image that I think works. I'll fire it off to ye in the morning when I get the pc on and split it properly Smile


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - Mam of 4 - 12-08-2021

I don't know whether to be excited , petrified , or both !


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - aaronjennings - 12-08-2021

I have no idea what's happening  Big Grin


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 12-08-2021

This is going to be mad, cause only needed about 5 words so stretched out the sentence a bit

RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 13-08-2021

Descriptions sent on to our painters! No rush on anyone, this is just a tester game Smile


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - Leg End Reject - 29-08-2021

@nothing is this going ahead?


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - nothing - 29-08-2021

Oh! Sorry, I'd totally forgotten, I was waiting on one painting and I can't remember who it was, possible I forgot to send a pm somewhere! I'll double check tomorrow and give a poke where needed Smile


RE: Beta Test: MSPaint Collaborative Edition - Trigger - 29-08-2021

Ah.. that's what happens when you are a big bad mod
