It is a pretty good page, Ole. Most of the pictures do not have many non-standard
characters. Those could be easily edited and posted here; no problem. It probably
wouldn't hurt you a bit, to do that for our edification. Or, you could post them
on alt.binaries.pictures.ascii, just as they are, in the pix format. That would be
an easy thing for a lot of these colored-extended pictures.

    The website owners of all these IRC color sites could easily do the same. Why not
post .gif's or .jpg's of your extended-pictures on the asciey pictures news group? Many
of you have a few examples on your pages... Post those, and make some more. Advertise
the newsgroup on your web pages; it's not like it's being used frequently by anyone
here. Last I checked, I was the only one who had posted any ascii-.gif coversions there,
in a long time. I don't think anyone would object to colored ascii and/or extended
pictures being posted to ABPA.

    This might also help with some of your own "accreditation" problems. Usenet posts, as
you know, are practically permanent. They are archived on the web at several sites, such
as Dejanews and Remarq. This could prove to be a boon in solving some of the infighting
that seems to be prevelant between the pop-up manufacturers.

    Anyway, congratulations on posting a web page with some pictures on it. You should
increase the thing, as time allows. The only suggestion I have, is you might reduce the
number of pictures per page, because of the loading time. It took me three attempts to
load all of that large page. I live in the sticks, of course...
