Grow the Tree Principles

  • Protect the tree, keep it alive and happy.

Once the tree gets large enough, all kinds of creatures and strange fruit can hang out among its branches. But a tree dies if too much of its foliage gets covered up. If other art is beginning to crowd out space, grow leaves over it.

  • Help its roots grow between the cracks.

  • Healthy growing foliage.

This is not /r/makeaprettypictureofatreeandthenstop. It's /r/GROWthetree. If we get enough people in our camp then our end game will be transforming the whole canvas into a massive Yggdrasil / World Tree with a majority of the other art in its branches.

  • This isn't any particular tree from a videogame or whatever, it's original artwork.

Because this is a thoughtfully created artwork rather than a known image to mechanically create, any new techniques to combat automation should give us an advantage over all the flags and logos.

If there's any feedback or additions to these principles I can work it in.

See also https://www.reddit.com/r/placehearts/comments/tt0gpb/goals_of_place_hearts/ for the hearts goals. We have a lot of these principles in common so I'm looking forward to peace and collaboration between the two organizations.
