History

Discussion on where to place a mark began in the very beggining, with members quick to notice the start of the Slovakia flag beeing created. It was quickly decided to create a Slovene flag next to the Slovakian one, since they both share the same colour pattern, the same was thought by Croatia who started at about the same time. Serbia also joined shortly after encountering problems with their first flag beeing mistaken for the Russian one and beeing griefed multiple times. Croatia sugested that a heart be placed in the center of the borders to commemorate their friendship. Despite multiple attempts to create additional artwork on the r/place canvas, the Flag of Slovenia is the only one which survived to the very end.

Undeveloped art

After the completion of the Flag of Slovenia users began discussions on what other art should be made on the canvas. Two main ideas were proposed, unfortunately both did not see completion.

Located at (320, 1774) the flag was fully completed with the foundation pixels beeing layed for the ski jumper, util it was compleatly overrun by the naked Roblox character artwork organized by Mexican YouTuber Quackity.
