This website contains PFP-generator artifacts from pre-NFT days, dating back to 2003
Embedded Files
PFP-generators are direct predecessors to CryptoPunks (2017) by Larva Labs & Bored Ape Yacht Club (2021) by Yuga Labs. The PFP character is built-up in layers using the same technique. The main differentiator is that a PFP collection like BAYC minted hyperlinks on the blockchain that point to the PFP image.
These images came from DHW's archive. All 81 image files below were preserved as Bitcoin Ordinals digital artifacts by @DHWartist in February/March 2023.
#01-#06 created by DHW in 2003 via the WeeMees website for competitor analysis (DHW had no direct link with WeeMees). #07-#81 all from DHW's own PFP-generator IP - Egobots.
At the time of writing the following 6 inscriptions are known to have been vaulted via Emblem Vault: #139195, #203979, #204452, #207523, #211945, #224453.
[for Pepe Wars collection please see Other Ordinals]
