How it works

Claim a piece of the daily canvas.

OpenFrame is a shared canvas where each confirmed region becomes part of the live image and the permanent daily archive.

Choose your region

Pick a block on the canvas. Claimed and reserved areas are unavailable, so every contribution has its own space.

Draw directly in the editor, then add your name and optional message or link. Your artwork is fitted to the exact region you selected.

Checkout places a card authorisation first. OpenFrame captures payment only after the server has safely processed and confirmed your claim.

After payment is captured and the claim is confirmed, your drawing appears on the public canvas. This usually takes a few seconds after checkout.

The frame closes at 9 pm AEST each day. A 1080×1080 snapshot is taken then, added to the archive, and posted to Instagram just after.

Minimum claim

10×10 pixels

Claims are bought in blocks of 100 pixels.

First tier

$0.10 / pixel

The first 166,400 pixels are priced at $0.10 per pixel.

Standard tier

$1 / pixel

After the first 166,400 pixels are claimed, remaining pixels are priced at $1 per pixel.

Currency

AUD

All payments are processed in Australian dollars. OpenFrame is proudly Australian based.

No. Regions are checked before checkout and kept unavailable while payment is being finalised.

The reservation expires automatically, and the region becomes available again.

The payment flow is designed to prefer an uncaptured authorisation over charging someone whose claim was not processed.

No. OpenFrame has no accounts or login system. Once confirmed, a region is permanent and cannot be changed.
