I didn't like my name being red, so hello.

Best way to contact me is through Discord: goldn13
(I'm in the Pxls Wiki's Discord)

I have been an administrator of a few indie game Fandom Wikis since 2022. Since then, I learned MediaWiki to help update other Wikis for games and shows I enjoy.

I have been placing on pxls.space with the Precious Family Pixelers since Canvas 89. Before that, I participated in r/place 2017, 2022, and 2023 by helping various smaller anime communities.

My first introduction to pixel art would have been in MS Paint in 2008. In 2012, I started creating pixel art for Minecraft, unknowingly learning how to defiddle images to work with the Minecraft block palette.

Factions

Goldn joined the Precious Family Pixelers faction during Canvas 89 after clicking on a pxls.space link that was pinned in Ironmouse's stream chat during the cyclethon with Connor.

She later created her own faction during Canvas 93 called "Goldn's Squirrels". It was primarily created because she found out she could be in multiple factions at the same time. This also allowed her to switch her chat marker to match her oshi mark, "[🍉🐿️]".

She joined the Squirrel Scouts faction during Canvas 94 to help support Caelan's war and the fact that she found another squirrel. While not actively placing for Squirrel Scouts after C94, Goldn remains quite active with the community on Discord. They also have defiddled Goldn a few times, and Goldn has tried to place on every art of her.

Canvas Artwork

Canvas 93

Goldn used the pixel art of her drawing of the Sylvan Vampire from the now-defunct game Stream Raiders as her piece of artwork on the canvas. The original pixel art was created by @ovelhart.bsky.social on Bluesky.

She placed the artwork between the Precious Family Pixelers' artwork.

A pony was added to the head of the Sylvan Vampire by lilou41.

Since the Precious Family Pixelers didn't have artwork prepared for the gimmick palette, Goldn recoloured the MouseWorm art to work with the canvas's palette.

Goldn's artwork on the gimmick canvas was a recoloured Sylvan Vampire pixel art. It was originally placed on the right side of the canvas, but later moved to be next to the Precious Family Pixelers' MouseWorm.

She placed another Sylvan Vampire in the original spot and created an 'acorn'-patterned lattice to go around it. She invited kitrmain to place their amogi yuri on the lattice after some Precious Family Pixelers had mistakenly covered them with the cube lattice around the MouseWorm.

With only 12 hours remaining before the canvas reset, Goldn put out a call to help her clean up some residual artwork that was left behind after it was moved near her lattice. With the help of some members from Precious Family Pixelers and others from pxls chat, the lattice was expanded to successfully cover up the residual artwork before the canvas ended.

Goldn's 'arcorn'-patterned lattice was left uncompleted before the end of the canvas. Her template had it expand around the various artwork in the area to fill in the virgin pixels around them.

Canvas 94

Goldn started the canvas off by placing the Sylvan Vampire with a rust-orange outline on the right side of the canvas. The original template was completed in about 12 hours. Greymatter expanded the rust-orange outline to the corner.

On October 7th, 2025, Goldn switched her template to be a defiddled witch outfit of her OC by @nonoworks.bsky.social on Bluesky. The template was placed on the branch above the previous Halloween canvas's pumpkin. She moved the original placement down by a few pixels to avoid having the witch hat so close to the edge of the template. She completed and devirgined this addition to the template independently on October 10th, 2025. During the 82.5-hour period that it took to place and devirgin, she averaged 27.05px/h (649.31px/d), increasing her progress by 2,232 pixels.

On October 20th, 2025, Goldn added a Halloween Teddiursa she had defiddled.

On October 22nd, 2025, Goldn added a pumpkin lattice around her artwork. She posted the template in chat and received help from silesianreal, pebble_, Ayden, UnvincibleMan, and a few other people. In the morning of October 25th, 2025, she expanded the lattice up to Moo Deng's template after getting confirmation of the borders around Laurin's artwork. The lattice was completed on October 26th, 2025.

The Sylvan Vampire was moved next to the witch outfit artwork, and the original was later covered up by osu! Logo Builders's lattice on October 24th, 2025.

On October 29th, 2025, Goldn supported the Squirrel Scouts faction's war by placing with them. She also created a defiddle of the 'Yum Hotdog' incident.

On November 5th, Goldn was permitted by osu! Logo Builders to place her Watermelon Squirrel on their lattice near the location of the original Sylvan Vampire. The Watermelon Squirrel was done by @ovelhart.bsky.social on Bluesky. Goldn had commissioned this piece for the next canvas, but with how long the canvas was taking, she decided to place it a canvas earlier.

Canvas 95

Goldn started off the canvas by dropping her Watermelon Squirrel to create a small claim just above Green Lattice's claim in the corner. Later, adding her Sylvan Vampire next to it.

On November 16th, 2025, Goldn added a slipstream-related lattice. The lattice started super large to cover a general area, but after chatting with Green Lattice's leadership, she determined a boundary that reduced the lattice.

On November 19th, 2025, Goldn defiddled some more slipstream-related assets and asked Narf if they can be added around Space PXLS. The next morning StaelaaOpal invited her to join the Space PXLS Discord for future space-related collabs.

She invited kitrmain to place their amogi yuri on the lattice. As well as helped get the heart around them completed before the canvas reset.

On December 17th, 2025, Goldn added a teddiursa to her template.

Canvas 96

Goldn started the canvas out by claiming a section in the '6'. She later added a lattice across the entire '6', which started at 73,593 pixels total, and after masking the art over the canvas, the lattice ended at 42,598 pixels.

On Wednesday, January 21st, 2026, the Squirrel Scouts surprised Goldn by placing a collab piece in the '6' during her livestream. The collab piece was of Cae and Goldn as Chip 'n' Dale. It took the Squirrel Scouts three and a half hours to complete.

Canvas 97

Goldn started the canvas by making a small claim near Precious Family Pixelers.

On February 19th, 2026, PFam asked if they could include Goldn's artwork in the lattice. This did involve switching the outline from 18 Azure to 26 Pastel Yellow. The next day, the template was updated to include the lattice.

Goldn originally intended to end the canvas with a 60k All-Time pixel count, but accidentally placed two pixels over. So she continued placing until the next 100 pixels to even it out for the next canvas. She ended the canvas with 60,100 all-time placed pixels.

Canvas 98

Goldn started the canvas by making a small claim near Precious Family Pixelers at the top of the Watermelon Heart from Canvas 67.

Canvas 98a

Goldn started the canvas by making a small claim with the Sylvan Vampire art. Due to the gimmick palette, she later defiddled a screenshot of her avatar doing :3 face instead to fit within the cheese hole. It was briefly griefed about 30 minutes before the canvas ended, but she was able to repair it before it ended.

Goldn also defiddled the Michi Borgor Pup used in Precious Family Pixelers' template the night before the gimmick canvas started.

Canvas 99

Goldn started the canvas not by placing her own artwork, but by helping Precious Family Pixelers outline theirs. She later added her Squirrel on Watermelon and Sylvan Vampire near PFam.

In the last week of the canvas, Goldn added 3 watermelon eggs to the egg hunt in Squirrel Scouts' lattice.

Canvas 100

Goldn started planning the artwork she was going to have placed for the May canvas on February 17th, 2026 with a simple defiddled sketch to give a scale to the details she wanted to keep. On and off over the next month, she finished defiddling the artwork. She shared it in a faction's discord server for feedback. After much feedback, she finalized the art on April 14th, 2026. The size of the artwork before being outlined was 34,658 pixels.

Due to the size of the artwork, Goldn did attempt to preclaim a spot on the May canvas. But since there wasn't a lot of room left on the preclaim plans with the Space Collab, her artwork was a floater. The final size with the outline is 35,934 pixels.

At the start of Canvas 100, Goldn started her claim at the bottom of the canvas during her lunch break. But due to the holes in the canvas, the space collab ended up overlapping with her artwork. With the help of members from Swarm and Squirrel Scouts, a new location was found near the top of the canvas. It did overlap some smaller artwork, but they were willing to move since they can fit in other locations much easier.

The Squirrel Scouts submitted art of Goldn wearing a space suit to the Space Collab.
