g0> That sounds great! Thank you I appreciate your help!
No problem at all.. Glad I can finally give back to ya...
g0> Thank you again but please do not stress yourself out trying to get it done

g0> love the help!
Again no problem at all. It's my pleasure...
g0> One question I do have regarding C64 BBSes is: Do they usually store art in

Yes, they store them as text files known as SEQ files. So it is pretty much
the same stuff, just different character set..
g0> I'd love to check out Image BBS that you mention (or any others that you
g0> recommend looking at) on the C64 emulator too if its possible! I've always
g0> been facinated by BBS stuff and the C64 is one of the platforms I haven't

g0> considering my first computer was a Commodore 128 (wish I still had it!)!
No Problem at all. I will send Shane the term program setup along with the Image
BBS setup, you can check it out from the sysop side and see what all
the craze was back in the 80's and early 90's.. We just released a upgrade
version back in December (3.0 yea, I did some of the programming on it jeez LOL)
and I will send you that, another simple setup just click the runme.bat and it
will boot to waiting for call..
I will get it to him soon, since we are a ways off I gotcha with the no
rush.. LOL :)
