textmode graphic art for [link]

tools used : pablodraw (xp application) / aciddraw (dos touchups)

my latest official ansi release, its been two years prior to this since i last dabbled in the medium -

and for those of you who are unaware, ansi , alike ascii are mediums based on the standard DOS character set of back in the good old bbs (bulletin board system) days - with a 16 color limitation. Ansi was used as a promotional tool for all kinds of computer related material of that era, as large and indepth as the underground art scene was in its prime (lasted over 10 years beleive it or not) its days are numbered down to a few diehard fans such as myself who still to this day find time to dabble in such a basic yet complex medium.

for any of you who might be interested in trying your hand at such a sport, you can find a windows ansi editor @ the following link

Daily Deviation

Given 2004-09-20
::GIII. SixteenColors.NET by ~taintedxl is the most elaborate, detailed ANSI work I have seen, and that's not even taking into account the subtle ASCII art fused with it. Make sure you full view this spectacular Gigeresque deviation to fully appreciate it! ( Featured by `blackice )

Good Job. It is nice to see that there are still fully active Large Picture ANSI Artists around. :salute:
