A game of cat and mouse... pad

So those who have been around for a while may remember something I had going a long time ago, before canvas caching existed, and was the reason I had stopped working on it. Well just a day or so ago, I started back at it and just finished it. It’s Mac’s profile picture, sized down to be 48x48, as done in mousepads.

Every mousepad has a unique URL leading to a site that previews colors, and in this case, hex code colors.

I don’t know exactly how much time this took, but if I had to guess, it was probably about 10 hours total of my process of doing this, which was…

  1. Hold Q in TU to bring up my cursor, and while holding Q, click out of the game to get the menu stuck.
  2. Right click the mousepad and edit it.
  3. Click the pixel I want to copy over with the dropper tool in paint.net
  4. Copy the hex value from the color window
  5. Click back into TU onto the URL field of the canvas editing window, and hit my bind I made in my Logitech software, which would type out the URL, then Ctrl+V the hex value in place, then type the .png part.
  6. Repeat steps two through five 2,304 times.

Now it’s time to never do that again :stuck_out_tongue:
