Art
I've created many art pieces for the ManePxls faction which you can see on the ManePxls wiki page. (Tip: You can use Ctrl+F and search for "TheWaffleLord" to see which canvases I made art on.)
The other art pieces I've made can be found in the history section below.
History
Discovering Pxls
I first found out about Pxls very shortly after I first learned about r/place when I watched this video made by LittleshyFiM showcasing what the brony community built on r/place.
I was disappointed that I wasn't able to take part in the event, so I went looking for clones of r/place and stumbled upon pxls.space.
Canvas 10
The first thing I did after creating a Pxls account was visit the Pxls subreddit and came across a post made by someone wanting to start a void in the bottom left on the canvas, which I helped by placing about 20 pixels before moving on. I then helped make grylical's checkerboard pattern which later got destroyed. After that, I helped with various projects until the canvas reset.
Nearing the end of the canvas, I helped some bronies in the pxls.space Discord server build the word "HORSES" on the large art piece commemorating The New Pixel Axis at the bottom of the canvas.

Canvas 11
Shortly before the canvas reset, I looked through various messages in the #plans channel in the Pxls Discord to find a project I could help with once canvas 11 began. I narrowed it down to two choices: Doki Doki Pxls Club or Team PXLS. I ended up choosing Team PXLS and helped make their art during canvas 11.
Midway through the canvas, I joined the ManePxls Discord server and helped them make their art and lattice until the end of the canvas.
From this point onward I would continue to help ManePxls and Team PXLS make their art on every canvas they were active on.

Canvas 12
Nothing particularly noteworthy. I helped some users/factions with various projects.
Canvas 13
I helped ManePxls, Avogadro, Team PXLS, and several other projects/factions.
This canvas was the first time I built something of my own on Pxls, an ego in the shape of a waffle.

Canvas 14
I built my first solo art piece, the :rooHappy: emote from the Twitch streamer AdmiralBahroo.
I began assisting squiddies in making many updates to the global template which was previously only handled by him. I would continue to make updates to the global until canvas 50.
Sometime during the canvas, a user used pxlsFiddle's lattice detector feature, looked at the :rooHappy: emote on the canvas, and found that the way the art was designed caused it to look a bit creepy on the lattice detector. Pairing that with another user's art just above :rooHappy: of a sign with the text "death", it made for a horrifyingly amusing combo.

Death Panda.
Canvas 15
As part of a group art project done by ManePxls, my pony OC was built on the canvas alongside the pony OCs of many other ManePxls members.

I defiddled the initial canvas.

Canvas 45 and Canvas 46
During canvas 45 I expressed my dislike of 2ch in a staff channel on the Pxls Discord noting how extremely toxic they had acted, which was leaked by another staff member causing 2ch to attack ManePxls and completely remove their art.
A truce was made between ManePxls and 2ch allowing ManePxls to build their art on canvas 46, under the conditions that I had to apologize to them and make a 2ch themed pony art.

I hid small ponies of each of the Mane 6 all around the canvas.

Canvas 56
To celebrate ManePxls hitting its 4 year anniversary, a small art piece was made depicting three pony OCs of the two previous owners of ManePxls and myself.

Canvas 56a
I noticed that some other staff members were making some stuff outside of the normally placeable area so I made a small avocado holding a fiddle in homage to Avogadro and pxlsFiddle.

Canvas 71
I made peeking pony and ponk variants of my pony OC since many other ManePxls members also made art of their OCs on the canvas.
-
I placed my peeking pony next to the portal the long pony goes into since I'm a big fan of the Portal series.
-
Canvas 73
I revived the Do Push faction.
Canvas 74
After having it in my "planned art" folder for nearly 5 years, I finally got around to making my third and final Roo art. The previous two being on canvas 14 and canvas 21.
As a fun nod to the osuplace faction, I added the text "osu" to the cookie as a reference to how they sometimes refer to the osu! logo as a "cookie".
Since I was already making an art piece that made me nostalgic for the older days of Pxls, I made an ego as well. The last time having done so on canvas 13.

Canvas 75
I made the initial canvas larger.
