Wondering if someone here could potentially help me with a silly / pointless / fun little project. I have a sizable collection of vintage computers and devices, and once in a while I like to post one of them displaying my company logo to my team Slack channel. Totally impractical, but it’s a fun way to blur the lines between my work and my retrocomputing hobby. Bearing in mind that I’m *not* a programmer, I’d like to find a way to display a simple 1-bit image of my company logo on the screen of my Model 100. Is there anyone here with the ability to help cook up some BASIC code (or something comparable?) for doing this? Given the borderline non-existent graphics capabilities of this machine, I’m guessing it would involve some kind of pixel-by-pixel bitmap or something, but as noted before, I’m no programmer so I’m just guessing here. Let me know if this sounds like the kind of gag you’d be able to help with - there could be a dollar amount roughly equal to a 6-pack of your preferred drink in the mix… :-)
