I reproduced our logo in pixel art, added our domain name in text, and I’m gonna start adding this to the Canvas.

The bottom right corner (where I’m starting) is located at 646, 205.

Come join me! And decorate this further if you’d like!

Edit: look like the picture is a little small because it’s pixel art. You may want to download it and open it up in MS Paint or something then zoom in a lot.

Edit2: I found a mistake in my template: there’s one extra gray pixel on the right side, diagonally up/left from the uppermost black pixel of the…uh…chelicera I guess.

Edit3: There are actually three extra gray pixels, the other two are to the right and above the one I just mentioned.

      Hahaha! They are called “nasolabial grooves” and through capillary action they help move odor particles towards the vomeronasal organ. They tap their snout on surfaces to collect odors and pheromones.

      It makes a lot of sense when you think about it. These salamanders belong to the “Lungless Salamander” family (Plethodontidae). They can’t rely on their lungs to suck-in the odor molecules, so they have to rely on a different trick!
