Frequently asked questions

Where is this type of decoration commonly used online?

It's popular in online communities focused on Japanese culture, especially around New Year. It can also be used in personal blogs or themed Discord servers.

How do I ensure the vertical design stays intact in a chat app?

Use the small size for chat applications like WhatsApp or Telegram. On desktop versions of these apps, the monospace font usually keeps the alignment. Mobile screens might still introduce line breaks if the art is too wide.
