Printed log-in screens from Phantasmal Alchemy, an Atari BBS in the mid 1980s. Made in Atari’s own ascii-standard ATASCII. 

The BBS started rather humbly, but eventually grew to encompass a large assortment of 8-bit hardware, including two 20MB hard drives.  Which, for Atari 8-bit stuff was pretty much infinite storage back then. :) The BBS was quite popular in Southeastern Connecticut, and I met many people through the BBS that I am still friends with to this day.

ANSI by LnS in 1992. Ruff Rider was a quite famous American BBS back in the days, it seems.

Very impressive text mode animation! Seems to be something from the PTT BBS, somehow.

Because Tumblr needs more Amiga ASCII. (via atochip)
