EDIT: all furbies have been adopted!


P.S. the pixel art is not mine, they're all by Hide Itoh!

Unfortunately not, they are fully deleted from the server when you delete them  It should have given you a "Are you sure you want to do this" alert though?

I made a Tiny Batman Head artifact, from Dinosaur Comics by Ryan North. The picture is not by me (i suspect it's not by Ryan either), i just edited it to bring down the fie size.

As for the economy, what about Melon's vote-based system? I'm curious to see how that would work in practice on any scale.

I'm not sure how exactly that would map to the artifact trade. What polls are you requesting with your request votes? Would this tie into actual changes to the structure and governance of the forum? If this is bigger than artifacts, what else can complete votes be spent on?

I do think this would probably work better if active votes were given out weekly instead of monthly. Just scaling that part down because this is a website and not a physical place where people live.
Ok, i've had a day to reread the democratism proposal and think about this. I think it wouldn't work for just artifacts. Artifacts, once they're made, are goods. Melon's democratism assumes goods are owned by everyone, and what you buy is labor. Services.
Unrelated: Since the artifact box is apparently not sorted, would it be practical to let us drag and drop artifacts, and make their positions persistant?

Also, is there already a way to include licensing information or information about the source for artifacts that aren't original?

This is such a fascinating concept to me honestly. A little hard to wrap my head around but its super cute. I might wanna add some myself. Maybe little fandom thingies

Ok, so I'll try to explain it as best as possible in my own words.

So you see there are those monkey trinkets back in 2020 called NFTs. NFTs are images you trade with real world money despite having no real value outside of its price. Also you add NFTs via the blockchain and then you wait until somebody buys it at a fixed price. That's the TL;DR but if you want to you can watch a youtuber talk about it.

Artifacts are basically just like that, you add pngs or gifs to a ledger and you wait until somebody buys them but with fantasy currency, so it's still a ponzi scheme but it's safe to trade with. It's more of a game if anything. 

Methinks I'll add something like that to my website once I can for fun.
