- api 6y agoThis thread makes me feel old in a good way. Who remembers TheDraw?
- dleslie 6y agoPabloDraw is a modern alternative worth checking out.
- loloquwowndueo 6y agoI DO!! An artist friend was a wizard with that thing, awesome watching him work. I could never produce anything beyond shapeless confetti.
- pridkett 6y agoI wasted so much time trying to make non-terrible animated ANSI art with TheDraw. I remember the first time I realized I could run it in 80x43 mode instead of 80x25 mode and my mind was completely blown. I also remember what a pain it was if you wanted to change color schemes. Especially on an animated piece. I had a BBS animated main screen that originally was red and yellow and at some point I decided bright blue and green would be more “3733+” and I needed to step through it character by character.
- core-questions 6y agoI used to use ACiD Draw for this kind of thing. The blinking parts were my favourite, you could almost make crude animation with it.
- marshal_law 6y agoI do. Brings back some memories - as someone whose handle appeared in the video a few times. :)
- glonq 6y agoAnd don't forget ATASCII art/animation?
