coral's remix feels like a step in the right direction from my pov. so i tried to riff on top of @coralorca's riffing of @brettdrawsstuff's idea. having a lot of trouble coming up with something that feels both very nounish and true to the original idea 😅

This feels pretty gatekeeperish rather than nounish imo especially since the original artist wasn’t consulted. 

Up vote or down vote the prop. But it shouldn’t just be only select artists allowed to propose new traits and be the deciders. Same vibe with the bowl cut.

i don’t quite understand the view that the community artists we trust shouldn’t opine on new trait proposals. surely if someone put up a prop to add code to our smart contracts we would be interested to hear from the verbs team if they think it’s high quality and fits with the rest of the code base?

ultimately voters decide whatever they decide but but i always WANT domain experts to opine rather than not

it’s open source art. we funded the noundry platform so that anyone can try a different iteration easily while tracking provenance clearly and it’s intentionally. saying that forking art in a public and attributed way is gatekeeping doesn’t hold truth to me and the act in no way suggests new artists need approval

They can opine away but what I’m taking issue with is the redesign without the original artist asking for it. That feels like gatekeeping & saying that only those who’ve had traits accepted previously should submit unless given approval. 

And I agree —it should just go to a vote. titw

The Yellow Collective on Base

Also — we need more creativity & more traits being added more often to bring renewed energy to the auctions. /yellow auctions are so much more fun right now due to the newness of the art. Need the same for /nouns
