Artist! Quote with some of your most detailed art!
love this thing... playful little editors are the best genre

my kids creating with a toy I made? that’s as good as it gets, folks
I spent the walk back from the grocery still thinking about your feedback, and while I see value in 'ask moss,' I appreciate your gut reaction and recognize that if people want this, they can find it. taking it out for now so it's not a distraction from what I want moss to be. thanks, tim
I wanted to make the custom brush api accessible for people less familiar with code in an immediate and tangible way, and this is one thing that I find this type of ai particularly good at. At least for me, I find it enables creativity while preserving my own artistic and visual intent

pixel art of an early prototype of the "friednster" brush, which generates friends for you for FREE
MOSS lets you import any image and then totally mess it up. what an opportunity!
every brush in moss is code that runs its functionality on every cell you're interacting with on the canvas. its really, really neat imo!
made lots of happy doodles while developing MOSS - my biggest frustration has been not having other people making brushes for me to play with, so let's start to fix that!

hello! meet MOSS, the newest painting toy from @brainfruit.bsky.social
MOSS is a pixel art creator with programmable brushes and shareable pads. it's kind of like if procreate and asesprite got together and made something weird together.

I've been working on a new painting toy for pixel artists, and I'd love to find a few folks to test it out and give feedback. I'm already having a lot of fun with it. Message me here or email!
