doggymommee8301 Sounds good and shouldn't take a lot of work. I'll add a difficulty rating too.
New Features On TwoInchBrush.com
That’s a great idea too Felix!!
Are those commercial adds/blog links between paintings intended?
I found them incredibly annoying!
Am I the only one?
Two small updates:
- Search results now include original paintings and community members
- When searching Bob Ross paintings by color you can now set an option that the results must contain all selected colors (thanks @Voy Kay for the idea!)
Is is possible to have something that allows a filter for canvas type, like black, white, oval, pre prepared with gesso when browsing BRs works?
I am generally ready to go, then find a painting I like think, yep I’ll do that, then discover I don’t have a black canvas or gesso painted canvas.
@Mrs C#969 Most of the time these paintings have "Black Gesso" listed as a used color.
I'll add something to filter for them in the next few days.
@Mrs C#969 In fact, just type 'OVAL' in the search bar and you will find them!
'Black gesso' can be found with the 'search by colors' mode.
@Voy Kay#973 , it was more so you can search and maybe exclude ovals or exclude pre prepared canvases or black canvases, or like look for all that are on a black canvas for example.
@Mrs C#975 I'll add something like this to the color search
doggymommee8301 Bob Ross paintings are now commentable.
I have chosen to not alert members when another person has commented on a BR painting that they have commented in the past, as I think this would create too many notifications.
Felix I have a challenge suggestion. I have seen lots of folks posting paintings of waterfalls lately. And I have been wanting to try one. When I searched keyword waterfall, I saw there are actually quite a few Bob did. What if you had a "paint all the paintings with waterfalls" challenge?
doggymommee8301 Great suggestion, thanks!
Once I can get myself to spend more than two hours coding for twoinchbrush I'll add a tagging system to the BR-paintings that will let me create challenges like this one super fast.
I'll need some help from the community in tagging all the pics though!
Felix Hey, just going through the Community articles, and realised there should be a "Report" feature, so you can be alerted to remove spam articles. There's one there now that was uploaded today.
Felix I will second ALotofHappyAccidents there Felix. There is indeed commercial spam in the article section:
https://www.twoinchbrush.com/articles/kpi-for-seo-9-must-have-metrics-in-your-seo-analysis
Thanks for the heads up! I've banned the user and removed the article.
Seems like an overhaul for the whole report system is needed here...

@Felix: I have a few suggestions on new features. I have to mention that I neither have the technical insight if you can realize them and/or how time costly a realization would be nor if those suggestions have already been posted by someone else.
- In case someone refers to an other painter in his painting, e.g. @Tom0779, it would be great if the painter gets a notification about this
- I think I mentioned it several times and others too that it would be great that you can change the main upload picture of your painting. Yet if you are unhappy with it (happens often when you upload it from a mobile phone) and/or you did some additional details/corrections you can only delete the whole upload and do it again. Here you might loose a lot of valuable input already done by others.
- It would be great if you can upload additional pictures for Bob Ross recreations as well. E.g. sometimes I would share a picture of a framed painting also. Or you could show some pictures of the different stages, etc..
These are my suggestions.
Another useful feature is to be able to go back to the same place if, for example, you open one of the blurred images or look at comments on a picture. I always get sent back to the very start of the Main SIte.
Thanks!
- Good idea, I'll check how much work it would be to add detection of username mentions.
- Same
- Should not be too much work, as it would work the same way as with the originals
@Colin Hudson#1837
I can change it so that clicking on an item on the newsfeed opens the painting in a new tab, so the position you scrolled to does not get lost. Would that help?
To unblurr the paintings on the feed you can tap the little red "NSFW" on the bottom right without visiting the details page.

Felix: One further idea came to my mind. It would be great if you can follow a specific painter, so you are always informed when this painter uploads a new painting, etc..
