Call for Art! Operation: PepeCoin Gives Back
PepeCoin has been presented with a unique opportunity to join forces with a group focused on charitable actions to make a positive difference for those in need.
We’re looking for community artwork that will be displayed long-term on an important physical item made possible by the project's contributions. For more information, read the details in here.
Fun was had at PepeFest
Many OG frogs from our community attended PepeFest this weekend! They brought good vibes, celebrated the king of memes, and had some personal time with Beeple too.
On X/Twitter, search the term #PepeFest to get a flavour for the event.
Another congrats to our amazing artists who were featured at the event and represented the $PepeCoin community with talent and with grace! 👏👏
Oh, and we were at VeeCon this weekend too.
We’re everywhere. East coast at PepeFest, West coast at VeeCon 2024… everywhere, and we had OG frog advocates on duty!
Great networking opportunities for the team and community to be part of, and the event didn’t disappoint! Our frens at VaynerMedia did an amazing job at organizing the speakers and activities and everyone was pumped! Lots and lots of future frogs hearing the gospel.
Did you catch the Pepe Paint v2 Update?
Do the Devs ever stop? The answer is no. New updates to PepePaint were announced this week! The announcement:
Ever since we released Pepe Paint, our community of artists has consistently tested its limits while creating incredible works of art! We've been hard at work too, making huge upgrades under the hood so it can handle everything they throw at it. Pepe Paint v2 is now live at http://paint.pepecoin.io and on Pepe OS (http://pepecoin.io)
For the best UX, use Firefox on Desktop machines. Firefox is not recommended for mobile devices.
Release Notes:
– Logic rewrite for saving all actions so that users can have much larger and more detailed pieces than before
– More accurate color sampling for GIF rendering
– Import and export of much larger history files possible now, backward-compatible with files created from the previous version
This Pepe Paint update will be released today in celebration of the achievements made by artists in the community, including those featured today at #PepeFest!
