No. A single pixel each isn't a meaningful artistic collaboration.

Ok then, if this isn't "meaningful" please provide an example of what is an example of a meaningful pixel artistic collaboration?

All of these ideas I have considered and plan to do these in the future (at least some variants).

It should be noted that these aren't random.  Human's making a decision, in some cases, might seem random but in the end a person chose the color and location for a reason.

The cool thing to see are the "constellations" emerging.  There are 6 so far.

What do I mean by constellation?  An intentional grouping that I believe will encourage others to add to the constellation.

Here is a thought...do you think the community here would be interested in attempting to develop a single image in a 30x30 or 50x50 one pixel at time?

On January 1st, 2007, 4AM EST, I launched the one simple pixel project (http://www.onesimplepixel.com). I am attempting to create one single image, 1000 x 1000 pixels in size, through the collective contributions of 1,000,000 people. Each person chooses one single pixel and personalizes it by giving it a name, choosing its color and optionally a comment or quote for the rest of the world to see. The theories are countless. Many first thought the result will just be a collection of random pixels. However as the image slowly appears it makes one wonder “what will the image actually become?” Only one million people contributing to the one simple pixel project can answer that question.

If you guys got any other ideas, let me know.  Please give me some feedback.  Please tell others.  1 million is a long way to go :)

Also, please not that many elements of the site will be changing soon to make it easier and cooler.  However, for now it is what it is.  It is hard to find time to work on this stuff when you have a full time job.
