FAQ

Why is the cooldown as long as it is?: The time it takes to get a pixel is dynamic, and changes based on how many people are online. The cooldown time is longer when more users are online.
Why does it say 0/6 pixels?: This means that you are waiting for your next pixel. When you place a pixel, there is a cooldown for when you can place the next one. Over time, you can gain up to 6 "stacked" pixels to place at once.
Why does it take so long to "stack" pixels?: This is by design. It is better to place a pixel as soon as you get one. Pixel "stacking" is meant to give you a bump if you go AFK for a bit. It takes around 40 minutes to get a full 6/6 pixels, but it only takes around 3 minutes to place 6 pixels if you place them as soon as possible.
How do I make a template?: A template is an image link that is posted in the template textbox in the settings panel so you can place over it on the canvas. You may use a regular image link to your pixel art, but many people use the 3rd party tool PxlsFiddle to turn pixel art into a fancier link. If you need to make pixel art yourself, you can use Piskel to create art to put into PxlsFiddle.
How do I move a template?: Hold CTRL (or OPTION on macOS) and click and drag to move it around. On mobile, you can tap and hold where you want to move the template and click "Move Template Here" in the pop-up.
Does the canvas reset? When?: This is a first template of Nichan.net anoumouns imageboard. We don't know what direction it will take, but you can follow the discussion of the said project on the latest "PixelNichan" thread on nichan.net.
How do I see who placed a pixel?: By shift-clicking (or tap and hold on mobile) a pixel, you can see who placed a pixel, how many pixels they have placed, and when they placed it.
How do I report someone?: Shift-click (or tap and hold on mobile) on a pixel, and click the Report button.
What is a "virginmap"?: The virginmap shows which pixels have not yet been placed on (or âvirginâ pixels).
How do I get more info or contact staff?: Join us on the Ukrainian Anonymous Imageboard Nichan.net.
