HI Chaïb the idea is nice but the email verification is a mistake. Just put a cookie saying pixel set, and if someone cheat who cares? This is art, it should be free. No reason to enter a personal info there.

Wouldn't it be possible to skip the signup and just store the IP? It will limit the project a bit, but would greatly decrease the painting time by millions of years :)

OMG I was kinda interested in taking part in this but what's the deal with the crazy protracted intro. I shut my browser down about 30 seconds in.

I like the idea, but the 'onboarding' is very slow. Its typed letter by letter and I dont know what I need to do. Its still typing in the tab and I would normally already have closed the tab. Also, there are some spelling error's in there. Might wanna fix em ;)
