ManePxls is Pxls' resident Brony Faction, who's aim is to create art from the TV show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

History

ManePxls was started by discord user Valra Bellkeys#4497 on 4/24/18. Discussion about bringing ponies to pxls.space began in the Manechat discord server between Valra Bellkeys#4497, danmur15#7432, ktmbandit (Siarnaq)#4606, and hydroglyphic#4775. ManePxls did not officially begin calling themselves "ManePxls" until after they moved to their secondary location on Canvas 10, originally writing "r/manechat" instead.

On July 4th, 2018, Valra Bellkeys#4497 handed leadership over to danmur15#7432, who has had control of the faction since.

Canvas 10

The original artwork made on Canvas 10.

ManePxls started out with big plans to invade OSU's art to gain a foothold on the canvas. This was ok to begin with but it got a few people angry, in and outside of pxls, so that plan was cancelled. After helping to repair the original artwork, ManePxls found a home on the right border, where they did not intervene with any other art for the duration of the canvas.

Now with a more sizeable faction than canvas 10, ManePxls attempted to secure an area all to themselves by working with other factions in the pxls discord server. However, they got pushed out of their original spot (to the right of AFiP) and had to squeeze in between two pieces of artwork by discord user dani26795#0181. As the Canvas progressed, ManePxls branched out into abandoned or empty spaces surrounding the 'core'.

It is also to be noted that two new factions came out of this canvas.

Rainbow Lattice

This is the first time Rainbow Lattice was used as infill. At this point it was still a part of ManePxls, but it would soon break off as it's own faction.

Anti Bronie Coalation

While an enemy of ManePxls, it is important to note that this was the first canvas where the Anti Bronie Coalation (ABC) began to harass ManePxls. Editor's note: the spelling of 'Brony' and 'Coalition' used in the heading is correct to what the group named itself.

Canvas 13

This was the first canvas where ManePxls had its own designated area. Canvas 13 was relatively uneventful other than attacks from ABC towards the end and users writing funny phrases into the art while working. There was also a tribute to the main factions the ManePxls was allied with at the time, in between the apple and the FiM Fiction logo. These allies included (left to right) AFiP, Flower Lattice, Green Lattice, Red Lattice, Rainbow Road, and Rainbow Lattice.

This was the largest area ManePxls took up across it's time on Pxls. This combined with a smaller than expected canvas caused more of the community to begin disliking ManePxls. Discord user Glitchdemall#0001 decided to start the message below ManePxls' area which was intended to say "You ponies need to make your area smaller. We want space too. -pxls community". However this did not end up this way as it became a meme within the community.

To help appease the community, Manepxls gave up a slot on the left side of their area to the newly formed LoL faction, which later became home to the Fox faction. Also, a cookie was added to the mouth of the grey bat pony by request of a few members of the community.

During the construction of the members became worried that it would not be completed due to an increase in artwork size and a decline in active members. From this point on ManePxls would scale down it's plans each canvas.
