Noundry update time!

Including Gallery updates, Studio updates and a new sdk for Nounish app devs.

Let's dive in
🧵👇

Starting with https://gallery.noundry.wtf

- The prop thumbnail previews are back for a quick review at a glance when voting
- You can now submit traits to the Gallery directly from Noundry Studio!

To the https://studio.noundry.wtf Lots to unpack here.

- First off...there's an actual color picker now! Don't worry...it will still stick to the Nouns Palette, picking the pallette color closest to your selection
- Speaking of picker...you can finally pick the specific parts you want. (better late than never ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

- You can now keep track of the current trait colors to keep it's pallette minimal and consistent
- The color picker was also simplified to a single color instead of stroke/fill color...that was a nuisance!

Last but not least, I introduce to you (to the devs who got nounish apps to maintain, really) https://assets.noundry.wtf and https://www.npmjs.com/package/@noundry/nouns-assets

TL;DR: the API compiles an image-data.json directly from the onchain artwork, which you can then import into your app so that it stays always  in sync with the DAO's artwork

@noundry/nouns-assets is a drop-in replacement for @nouns/assets, that together with the noundry assets API will free you from having to update and redeploy your app every time a new trait makes it to the DAO.

If we want to keep the Noundry machine pumping, we shouldn't be imposing chores on all the ecosystem devs every time we drop a new gem onchain. This should keep our builders happy and prevent a couple of broken windows ✌️

Time to put them to use. Get ready for some Noundry contests SOON™

This time, we'll try something different:
- Nouners vote on a theme for the contest (e.g. AI, Science, a specific color?)
- Artists submit parts that fit the theme
- Nouners vote on best part, it gets the prize and is proposed to the DAO
