Large OWOT screenshots: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 21:13, 3 February 2026

You can take large screenshots by going into the console and using updateRendererZoom(percentage). Larger screenshots can be assembled using scripts, or by stitching several screenshots together.

Frontpage

Screenshots covering a large portion of the frontpage, more than 500 coordinates on all sides (4000x4000 tiles).

FP

FP had also created large screenshots of the YWOT frontpage at /~fp/photographWorlds

Mainpage snapshot by FP from April 9th, 2019. This image is accessible via https://ourworldoftext.com/frontpage_april_4_2019.png.
December 14th, 2021, 1000 coordinates on all sides. This image is accessible via https://ourworldoftext.com/static/files/img_1000_dec14-2021.png.
With color. The colorful scribbles were a script that would generate winding roads. These roads have long since been deleted.

Mr.Guy

On December 20th, 2023, Mr.Guy printed out the entirety of the frontpage.

Catha'Vi

On February 28th, 2025, Catha'Vi used a Python script to form a 2000x2000 tile (roughly 500x500 in coordinates) map of Spawn, where each tile is represented by a pixel.

"First visualization"
"Shading based on percentage of tile occupation gives a different picture"
PNG version
"averaging all the char colors per tile"
Transparent version

e_g.

1080x720 tiles (270x200 coordinates) (July 2025)
September 14th, 2025

Other worlds

Rscr

Created by taking multiple screenshots at maximum zoom and then stitching them together in Google Slides.

The full snapshots of each world is then placed alongside one another for size comparison.

Large screenshots of other sites

FP hosts a collection of large YWOT screenshots at /~fp/photographWorlds. In the mid 2020s, Anonymousellama21 and DeepTraveler also figured out ways to make snapshots of the Mainpage.

YWOT frontpage, 1000 coordinates on all sides

TextWall frontpage, 83 coordinates on all sides

Notes

↑ A color ban was imposed on the front page starting from December 19th, 2025, meaning that no new colored text would appear until February 2026. Links and colored emojis could be used to circumvent the color ban, but they appear as black in RRT's screenshots.
↑ The blue spam here is the remnant of a massive spam wave from November 2025. It consisted of vaporeon image pastes.
↑ ^3.0 ^3.1 The long stream of text going downwards from Spawn was created by Schjessu's lightning script, specifically the PISS function, which could generate 1000+ coord piss streams in the blink of an eye.
↑ The large column of spam seen here was from something called "OWOT Endless Town," which was consisted of numerous ASCII buildings pasted over and over again.
↑ ^5.0 ^5.1 ^5.2 The massive shape seen in this snapshot was generated by gimmickCellar's raywiper.
↑ Small smudges of color are visible at Spawn for the first time in roughly six weeks, marking the end of The Great Color Ban of 2025/2026. Colors were not restored all at once, however, and on the first day only red was re-enabled.
