Coining Event: Archaebacteriafloatspaceic!
A gender related to archaebacteria and floating in space, feeling like an archaebacteria floating in space. Can also be associated with the feeling of being lost in space.
For @crowdsourcedgender coining event:
(28/03) -> archaebacteria / space & the sky
Challenge:
Use a very low resolution canvas, or scale it down afterwards. Suggested size: 166 x 100px
==> I usually use a 3840 x 2304px canvas so using a 250 x 150px felt so weird T-T I still really like the results though! The gif flags are 240p since that's the lowest I could do :)
Coining Event: Sillyspiderdoodlegender!
A gender related to silly doodles, being silly and (drawing) doodles of spiders. This gender may feel fun and joyful.
For @crowdsourcedgender coining event;
(27/03) -> animalia / silliness & fun
Challenge:
Create the whole flag by hand or mouse: no line, shape, symmetry, or any other similar tools. Stabilizers are up to your judgement.
==> I used no tools to make the flag. It ended up looking even more silly (imo), which is absolutely perfect for this gender :P
Coining Event: Glitchedprotistaic!
A gender that feels like a glitched protista stuck inside a computer program.
For @crowdsourcedgender coining event:
(26/03) -> protista / technology
Challenge:
Make the flag in a software or using a technique you've never/rarely used before. Bonus points if it is significantly different from your regular one. Suggested tools: Photoshop, MS paint, Ibispaint, flag-creator.com, Magma, or many programs similar to these (e.g. jspaint.app). Suggested methods: fill tool on a flag template, rectangle tools, in-built dividers
==> I exclusively used the rectangle and bucket tool to make this flag, no new software used.
Bonus #1: Stomachlocine!
A term for those who experience their gender located inside their stomach.
Bonus #2: Anxistomachlocine!
A term for those who experience their gender located inside their stomach (only) when having spikes of anxiety or just because of anxiety in general.
Tagging @crowdsourcedgender :)
Coining Event: Eubacteriagenderless!
A gender that feels genderless in the way an eubacteria doesn't have a gender.
For @crowdsourcedgender coining event:
(25/03) -> eubacteria / connection
Challenge:
Use no straight stripes (any orientation) in the flag. 'Straight' meaning consisting of two straight, parallel edges.
==> I immediately thought about making the flag stripes out of the bacteria emoji! Made the other flag without the ruler so there's no straight lines!
Coining Event: Sillyfungidoodlegender!
A gender related to silly doodles, being silly and (drawing) doodles of fungi. This gender may feel fun and joyful.
For @crowdsourcedgender coining event:
(24/03) -> fungi / fluidity
Challenge:
Make the flag (or whole term) with a time limit. The limit is up to you and depends on how long your method of flag making takes, but the idea is to make you rush. Suggested time: 3 minutes
==> I preferred not to do this challenge because I'm completely unable to work within a time limit. I tried to make it as fast as I could instead! I made it in under 10 minutes :3
