2018 Derpibooru Community Collab

@Darth Sonic  
yep i’m still around, anything i could edit?  
(apart this post. oki ,glad you’re fine with it , i gotta sleep. cya!)

There is still time, right?  
I made a new vector for my contribution (removed the community collab tag from the old one as well).  
I really have to learn how to draw this guy’s mane from different perspectives.  
 
But it could have been worse, right?

Welp, ‘twas fun to have helped. I’m glad I managed to finish before the deadline with a few. :3

Glad I was able to put in my diamond doge OC in time. Better have a DD in the pic before G5 erases their species from existance.

Hoo boy, took some last minute panicking, but I finally finished this batch for myself and friends. Would it be possible to get them grouped together along with another who did his own? If it’s easier, I can drop the collab tags and upload a composite version instead. (Apologies for the long post with the images)  
 
 
 
 
 
 

“(GMT-5)”  
This is why I was so panicked today. When are you guys gonna fix the first post so it says GMT+5? These bonus 10 hours have been so needed though.

I wanted to contribute to the occasion, so I whipped up something for a friend and I:
 

 
I hope everything is workable for you. They might end up a little short, given that they are reclining. If you need a different resolution please let me know.
 
 
Here’s to a wonderful 2018, everyone~

Ok then

@Minus  
No, “minus five” is correct; that’s how time zones that are behind GMT/UTC are denoted.

@patachu  
But seriously man, thank you so much! Has this already been submitted, or do I have to personally upload it for it to count?

@Darth Sonic  
It is submitted.

@LightningBolt  
Awesome!

@Exhumed Legume  
I really love this, because this confusion/problem is actually a problem of coordinate transformations, a huge topic in the mathematics of General Relativity :p
 
It’s nice when there’s something invariant, though - in this case, “x hours left as of this post” is something true in every time zone, so you can simply mouse over the “posted y minutes/hours ago”, and subtract that from “x hours left as of this post” and get the time left, no matter your time zone.
 
Invariants are the best. In fact they’re the only way to do physics :p

Well lts almost a wrap. l highly doubt l’d be able to draw another OC in such short notice now n_nU

@Cirrus Light
 
Yeah, but normally people tends to think in terms of “I’ll be back around X” and not in “I’ll be back in Y units of time”, except to denote very short spans of times (“be back in 20 minutes” for instance).

Finally! It is done!

Was meant to do Jmygamers’es as well, but it looks like they had someone else do theirs already.

 
And I’d like to be next to my pals  
, >>1617871t (merged), and  
And it would be best if I was not put near >>1595266t (deleted)
 
@Exhumed Legume  
I live in GMT. so this:  
“11:59PM (GMT-5) on Wednesday, December 27th, 2017.”  
becomes this:  
“6:59PM (GMT) on Wednesday, December 27th, 2017.”  
But here’s the thing. it’s currently 2:42AM on Thursday and I still have time? This is mistakenly written. I have until:  
“4:59AM (GMT+5) on Thursday, December 28th, 2017.”  
It’s +5, not -5. I think I would know a little about Subtraction.

@Minus  

But you apparently don’t know about time zones. :P  
The +/- means “this time zone is this much ahead of (+) or behind (-) UTC.”
 
Case in point, 11:59 pm UTC = 6:59 pm UTC-5.  
Or, Dec 27 11:59 pm UTC-5 = Dec 28 4:59 am UTC. Or Dec 28 6:59 am UTC+2, which is my time zone.
 
Two hours left as I type this, BTW.

How does “I want to be next to this person” work if they’re flying?… :q
 
I mean, I guess there’s the spot directly under them… Which also depends on the distance from camera/depth, heh.
 
Hrm.

We should just put a countdown in the banner next time we do this

@Litrojia  
Trust me, you do not want me writing Javascript

@Exhumed Legume  
I don’t see how what I did was any different. You’ve pretty much copied my calculations. The original post was done in EST, which is equal to GMT+5, Yet it claimed to be GMT-5. Even google says “Greenwich Mean Time is 5 hours ahead of Eastern Time”. This actually is an error on their part.

@Litrojia  
Or straight-up announce the deadline in UTC and let everyone figure it out for themselves.
 
 
@Minus  
You’re still getting it backwards. And misreading what I typed. XP  
Look, just go here for the primer…

Why do I have to be so damn slow, won’t be able to paint it and tidy up in time.

hooray for doing it last minute…
