Ok, so recently a friend showed me this really neat site called ThisIsSand.com, and I think it's pretty boss. Basically, you click and hold your mouse down to drop sand, and it builds up into pyramids and shapes and stuff. I can make pretty basic stuff like these:



but some people make super epic art like this and this.
You can also change the color of your sand and create some really cool stuff, so you should definitely check it out.

If you want, you can post pictures of what you create on this thread as well.

Have fun!

Impressive what those people made!

I know! Some people are so talented!

Cool! I'm going to make a script to automate the process of drawing an image with sand

Here's a quick test I did using my automation script: http://www.thisissand.com/gallery/3328762

I'm going to add image support soon.

I think how they did those two pictures was they got the actual picture, then loaded the image into some leet haxx0r script that went really fast and waited until the sand was the right hue to vary the speed

The app has a paid feature to convert images to sand. However, I am working on a script to do the same thing. It should also be possible to upload any image you want.

It's my new desktop background for now

Heh I kind of like how they don't notice someone could make a script that does exactly the same thing for free.

Why did I read thisissand as thisandagain… I spend too much time in the ATs

I saw the gallery of the website and the drawings look really lit

There's like a D.va one (I didn't make of course I'm not talented)
And this Pegasus one here (also not made by me)
These drawings are really cool

Awww. It's cute!

I love this site! It's nice for calming down when you feel stressed
What I tend to do with this site is just make something with the colors they give me. Here's one I made just now:
