you could just type 'telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl' in the run dialogue box rather than in telnet itself - worked straight away for me that way

Or you could just do a google for asciimation sites as this one is really really old - the guy who originally made it was in New Zealand, remember it being a .nz web address

Must of taken bloody ages to do! lol

Cheers,

Andy

http://www.asciimation.co.nz/



Cheers,

OMG! What a nutter this guy is.

The ascii Star Wars is way too geeky but have u seen some of his other projects. View website above and goto the homepage. He's made a built in video camera inside a scalextric slot car, jet powered beer cooler and a pretty thorough rebuild of a 70's MGB.
