Some lighter entertainment for a change. I was getting bored with the IBM PC charm of the Anelok title banner written in a 20x10 font, so I doodled a new one:

Anyone care to do better ? :) Constraints: - for each pixel, there is twice the number of color choices of a Ford Model T, i.e., the time-proven black and a daring new white. Isn't it amazing how far technology has come in just a century ? - the size shall not exceed 128 x 64 pixels. - the number of white pixels (black in the .xbm file) shouldn't be excessive, preferably less than 50% per line. A style variant I was thinking of is to have large letters that each fade from mostly black to all or mostly white from left to right, and move them such that they overlap a little. I didn't have the patience to do the dithering, though. - Werner _______________________________________________ Qi Hardware Discussion List Mail to list (members only): [email protected] Subscribe or Unsubscribe: http://lists.en.qi-hardware.com/mailman/listinfo/discussion
