Short Description:
- Party Prod. :)
Tools used:
- MS Paint for the lineart sketch, Irfanview to resize the
picture to the target resolution of 160x192 pixels and make a
PGM file for import.
- My own editors MINIPAINT and MG TEXT EDIT on VIC-20.
- MINIPAINT requires a +16K RAM expansion, the other stuff runs
with +8K RAM extra.
How to view the pictures:
The workstage *.prg's and 'AotTF.prg' are actually executable
pictures, when your VIC-20 is equipped with at least a +8K RAM
expansion. Just LOAD them (with just ",8", *not* ",8,1"!) and
then RUN.
Greetings:

- All fellows @ the VIC-20 Denial forum,
- All fellows @ Forum-64, and
- All VIC-20 fans around the world. :)
signing off,
