Mistodon: originally drawn in #pixelart as part of @grymmjack 's "food gang" as seen a few days ago, this saucy character was redrawn in #ANSIart as interface art for the new IMBIBE01 food-themed electronic magazine. We then took things a step further and also used him in a promo for Chicago's #textmode art-loving @paperthinpizza , purveyors of delicious pies and terrible Figlet logos.

An ambulatory slice of pepperoni pizza wearing a chef's hat contemplates his next move.

Mason Kirk () and Gale Fields () are among the forces defending cyberspace in the world of "Cyber Purge" (https://thegreenherring.itch.io/cyber-purge-zzt). Here they are ready to practice their martial arts and stay in shape in the physical world as well as the digital!

In the middle of a desert at night, with sand, rice grass and rocks around their feet, two shapeshifters in the forms of muscular animal men stand beside each other in fighting stances with clenched fists ready to begin practice.

To one side, Mason Kirk, a kangaroo with a huge tail, deep red in color with a white underbelly and cyan eyes, stands with one arm tensed at his side, the other out in front, and his legs apart. Dressed in dark cyan with white accents, he is wearing only elbow and knee braces, a bandanna tied around his tail, fingerless gloves and ankle protectors, and a long loincloth. He is wide-hipped with markings that resemble top surgery scars, a pouch on his belly, and gigantic legs which end in long kangaroo feet with thick, sharp claws.

To the other side, Gale Fields, a big white hare with long black hair and red eyes, stands with his arms tensed and held behind and in front. Clad in deep red with black trimmings, he is only wearing compression sleeves, gym shorts with a black belt tipped in red tied in front, and ankle protectors. He is profoundly stocky, with a big muscle gut on display, hips and legs so built that they render his shorts form-fitting, and long, thick rabbit's feet tipped with big claws.

The image is signed "TGH! 2025" and the address "thegreenherring.neocities.org" appears in the corner of the image.

In recent weeks I've been playing "DDST," a fun adventure game for Atari ST BBSes that I had never tried before.

I *love* that it lets you save basically whenever you want. Makes it possible to avoid losing progress while exploring dungeons crowded with monsters and traps.

My wife took a quick peek while I was in a dungeon and asked if it was a QR code. Nope ... just some VT52 text art!

ASCII Art is so beautiful that when I see it I remain speechless and staring at it for several minutes: it is a real art and I admire anyone who is capable of creating these masterpieces!

If you have the new SyncTerm, then check it out!

Telnet to GOF at guardian.synchro.net, port 23.

Set "Screen Mode" to "Atari ST 80x25" and "Font" to "Atari ST."

You can also see VT52 in action by visiting these other fine BBSes (running on actual Atari ST hardware):

Dark Force
darkforce-bbs.dyndns.org:1040

STar Fleet HQ
bbs.sfhqbbs.org:5983

Biker Bob's Clubhouse

Due to the new Atari ST VT52 support in SyncTerm, I added a VT52 logon screen to my "Guardian of Forever" BBS today.

GOF is a Synchronet BBS. I love Sync's JS support ... makes it easy to code interfaces, doors, etc. It's how I added IGS support before.

Anyway, most menus are still the stock Sync ASCII, but I hope to slowly add VT52-specific ones eventually.

Textmode screen says "Guardian of Forever -- a unique bulletin board system supporting VT52, ANSI, and IGS."
