Two people seen from behind lean over a laptop and a printed image, surrounded by swirling patterns.

Draws this one again — same subject and the same people, a new palette and a new angle on it, described afresh. It replaces the drawing on this page for everyone, until somebody draws another. Costs the site about eight cents, and a few seconds.

What should a team hand each other instead of a picture?

Why these three

Two neighbours reading as one family, and a third opposite them to argue with it.

  1. SeedSHA-256 of what-should-a-team-hand-each-other-instead-of-a-picture, which is the same every time and different for every piece.
  2. Base hueThe first two bytes as a fraction of 65,535, times 360 = 136°.
  3. GeometryThe third byte modulo 4 picks analogous, which adds 0°, 35°, 190°.
  4. WobbleThree more bytes shift each by up to ±12° — 9.6°, +11.1°, +9.9° — so two pieces that draw the same geometry are still not the same shape on the wheel.
  5. Result#63ab6a126° at 42% saturation, 67% value#299ea1182° at 74% saturation, 63% value#983960336° at 62% saturation, 60% value

Saturation never drops below 72% and value never below 78%, which is what keeps a hue reading as the colour it was chosen to be rather than as a dark. More on how these are made.
