Keep the current size (1000x500)

the canvas is currently 60% filled
- There's not enough time left to meaningfully fill another 500,000 pixels; there's still a ton of white space on the current canvas. If the place time was shortened, it would have to be down to something like 5 seconds to be impactful. Changing the "rules" to that extent this late in the game feels silly. There's plenty of empty space as it stands.
  
  Just my 2 cents, though.
  
  I agree with you. There isn't even a proper job for the void - no one needs art to be eaten up because nearly everyone has space.
  
  Would it change your mind if I have a giant Shrek template? Was too late to the expansion to deploy it without going over stuff people were making.
  
  500? maybe not, but i think it would be okay to resize it by 250 pixels instead. Not too large to be left out blank, and not too small for larger artworks to be made
- Why did we resize at all? This completely prevented all competitions about space that makes the canvas so much fun. A lack of resources sparks creativity!
- that's when people lack place that creativity and diplomacy begin between communities. Better have a beautiful small canvas than an empty big one
- +1
  
  If you do choose to expand though, maybe make it so you have a pool of maybe 8-12 pixels that can only be used for fresh canvas and then 4-6 for overwriting?
  As shortening for non-touched pixels seems there could be an exploit to get more normal pixels?
  
  I like this idea. Wasn't it used in the 2023 Canvas?
- Absolutely dont resize.
