About
CreativeTrace is a digital space for small creative traces.
The idea is simple: a person leaves something of their own on a shared canvas — a drawing, text, sound, file, sketch, project fragment, or any small creative work. Along with the work, they can add a link to their own resource: a website, channel, portfolio, or another page where they can be found.
Every trace becomes part of a shared wall. Not a feed where everything disappears quickly, but a space where works exist side by side.
Why trace
A trace is a mark.
It does not have to be a large finished work. It can be a small imprint of a moment: a thought, image, poem, sound, sketch, or a piece of an idea.
I wanted to make a place that feels like an offline gallery where people can bring drawings, poems, texts, and other works, but in a digital format.
How the space works
CreativeTrace is a shared canvas. Works by different people appear on it, and separate traces gradually form a living digital gallery.
Perfection is not the point here. The gesture matters: leaving something of your own and seeing it next to other people’s work.
Moderation
Reactions to traces are shown anonymously.
All traces go through manual moderation. This keeps the space safe, human, and away from spam-board energy.
Messaging trace authors
When an author enables this option, viewers can write to them from the canvas — a “Message author” button appears while viewing the trace. The message is delivered to the author in Telegram or by email, along with the sender’s name.
Authors can allow messages when submitting a trace or later in trace editing mode. Sign-in via Telegram or email is required, along with a connected notification channel.
To message an author, you need to sign in on the site. Rate limits apply to protect authors from spam.
