…  
i really hate ai generated art  
but I have a plan!  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/1/b/1b22352398808dfa6d3ec5b8eb07970158dd0731.png)  
This is a base plan for a new banner design, split up into 72 tiles. Submit as many tiles as you wish and I’ll compile it up into aesprite! If you can, please submit a pixel png file but I’m good with an image to replicate by hand if yr using makecode. For the letter tiles, choose which one you want to do from the poll below (max 2 letter tiles for one person and not on adjacent letters)

## RULES:

- **Theme: Education and learning tools!** (like a lil computer, richard’s fedora, makecode logo, spanner, screwdriver, a book, calculator etc)
- **32x32 size** (don’t try to merge 2 tiles or smthing it’l break up the pattern)
- **[Makecode arcade palette](https://lospec.com/palette-list/microsoft-makecode-arcade)**
- Fill the tile completely! no half empty tiles

(also feel free to make cool border designs)

_Poll ([view on site](https://forum.makecode.com/t/redesigning-the-makecode-banner-art/33355/1))_

haha, i love this idea! but realistically, not sure if we could actually use it on the site given copyright and whatnot… still would love to see some sort of collaborative mural

This is supposed to be the ‘C’ but I might have done too much to try and fill out the empty space.

Hi @Luke!  
I want to participate in this, so I created 3 different tiles:  
**1. Computer**

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/7/2/72cedf181c7e5e9e8128b7d03eda7d15119af53a.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/d/1/d1eec2babad6eb9922cc505febdc162684fdefed.png)  
\*You can use any design, or use both! @Richard, do you like it?

**2. Makecode Arcade for Dummies**

**3. Doodle Bob and his pencil**

Hehe here’s my entry! Since I am an absolute flop at art, this might be the best pixel art I’ve ever done:
