Way to search for accessible oekaki?

Postby EpicratesPictus » Fri Jan 02, 2026 8:52 am

Is there a way to find Oekaki posts that you have permission to color in?

I know you can search to see if you posted in the thread, if you are mentioned by either name or id number, and if you bookmarked it you should eventually find them there. What I’m wondering is if there is a way to find Oekaki that you have access to but you forgot to do one or more of the above. I know that there’s posts out there with critters I adopted (generally by sending a trade to pay) that I never posted on, I forgot to bookmark, and the original artist only marked as “sold” but not who they sold to. Some of them I remember I had the link to in a trade message, but I’ve been on this site long enough that I can’t pull up all my past trades as they go past the 100 pages that automatically populate and I don’t remember all the usernames of artists I’ve purchased from (and I’m sure that many of them are no longer the same name anyway).

Thanks for any help!

This is what I would do!

Put your username in the "Search for author" box of the search

Select Oekaki in the "Search in forums" list

Check mark ascending in the "Sort results by"

Select 1000 in the "Return first" drop down list

Then Search. This would cast a wide net of where you posted in the oekaki, with oldest first. Hopefully you posted on adopts you were interested in like "sending in a bid" or "trade sent" or something ^^;

I’ve done that before as well as searched for my name appearing in the text, what I’m looking for are the adopts I purchased where I didn’t remember to comment on the post and the original artist generically marked as “sold” or “adopted” instead of who purchased them
