I’ve been thinking about setting up a dynamic image grid similiar to milliondollarhomepage, but 500×500. Users choose their place on grid.

My question is how would you go about drawing the image from the data? I’ve been thinking the image can be drawn from a array[500][500], each slot storing color for a pixel. So when a user adds a piece in the square, you record position and size and replace that in the array>?

Then each time the image changes you store the total blob in the DB so you have some versioning

What do you guys think?

    1. Create empty 500×500 image.
    2. On each addition of new entry, store that entry in database.
    3. Add entry to image.
    4. Save static image as a file.
    5. Serve this image to page visitor.

    This way you have both a history of all changes and a fast and static image to show.
