twisted 01 / 97 intro, by pcarcass.
Well the last two months have been kind of hectic for the group, with
holidays bringing computer problems to a few members, Silica Avatar had
a harddrive crash... and Shaman lost all his work, im not sure if he had
computer problems, or upgrading. Anyways Fuse and Purple Dye have been
busy coding TCLS for MR-T twisted bot. So look out for there TCLs.
Look out for our upcoming bbs mod pack, we have finally decided to start
releasing mod packs, with the decline in modding groups. There is a new
version of TWISTED VIEW out, please run it, twview.exe its amazing,
mouse capable, new music, smoother then ever, great work Krypt Keeper.
Our great founder C0unt Zer0, will be missed as he is leaving Twisted to
join a bigger less local group!
Krypt Keepers 5..
I joined TWiSTED about 2 months ago.. since then Ive released
2 things having to with Renegade modding.. none of them got in the pack.
they can be obtained individually from cG . I think the modding scene is
something that should not be forgotten until BBSes are completely DEAD..
Hope that will NEVER happen . Even with the i-net and all that stuff..
A local BBS.. or a local irc channel TWISTED!! will beat all those
stupid WEB pages.. Anyhow, my next project will be a interior ZIP/ARJ
viewer for RG, i might make an iQ version if someone has a use for it :.
Anyhow, I hope to make more utilities, and kinda get into the internal
modding a little more... If i finnaly get a line, i could put No CaRRieR
BBS up, then 9o5 can see a fully modded/hexed board.. but dreams are
dreams.. but hey, you never know right?
New members, pcarqass

deelOts, also, our little mouse Spuz, and his friend Zang. And finally our mascot is now Ramirez, who runs our Swiss Whq Lost in 303.
Good Bye, C0unt Zer0.
Okay, this will be my last contribution to TWiSTED. Im doing this letter
cause I can say more here than I can in a little greetz type thing at the
bottom of an ANSi. So here goes.
First, my thanks. My thanks go out to all the members of TWiSTED, and all
the ANSi artists I know, but particularly to those who were with me right
from the beginning. Putrid Carcass, most particularly, was with me even
back in PoLARs days, so thanks, pC. Id also like to thank Balistix for
coming up with the PoLAR/DaMN merger, and Id like to thank Gus for lending
us a hand with his great board and, in the more recent past, his great
organizational skills. General thanks go out to everyone else in TWiSTED.
Second, Id just like to say that I am -NOT- through with ANSi. I will
still do the occasional ansi, but not for TWiSTED. I will hopefully be
applying to some larger, less local ANSi groups in the near future. I will
say no more about that, as any announcement I make would definitely be
premature, since I have not even begun any negotiations with the art group
that I have in mind.
Third, Id like to say that I really believe in the integrity of ANSi as
an art form. Its a great form of art because there is no cheating. What I
mean by that is that everyone who does ansi is playing on a level field
there are no art programs that can really help you draw better ANSi there
are some that let you do ANSi FASTER, but how good your ansis are is entirel
dependent on your own skill. This is UNLIKE, oh, say, VGA, a field in which
nearly ALL the art I see has been enhanced somehow with the aid of 3-D
studio, or AutoDesk Animator Pros special tools. Thats not ART. Unless
it comes from YOU, its not art. Even comic rip ansis come from the artist.
The artist interprets the comic picture in his own style, and makes it his.
Or hers... Sorry to all you MILLIONS of female ansi artists . Anyways, I
hope that this field, which appears to be slowly dying, to me, remains aroun
for awhile longer at least until -I- grow out of it, which should hopefully
take awhile.
So thats about it. Ive rambled on for far too long, anyways. Ill keep
this last paragraph short. Goodbye. Have fun. Seeya in the funny papers.
