Introduction to Singing Cicada ASCII Art Volume 6 His Mountain and Stone 2004.07.21 Outline: Ⅰ Layout Design Ⅱ Postscript Origin from: Tolo Note Ⅰ Layout design After becoming familiar with the use of basic components such as special symbols and color codes, you have almost mastered the basic skills. Finally, let’s talk about the more comprehensive overall design. signature file The signature file of BBS allows netizens to leave a small space at the end of the article to express their own characteristics when posting articles. Some people will write a few funny words to make everyone laugh or think deeply. Another type of people will make a beautiful signature, just like their own handwritten signature. People who know ASCII art will of course prefer the latter style. Here I demonstrate a simple style so that everyone can learn to make a good-looking signature file: Decide on the text, such as your own BBS ID, a certain word, usually all English letters After deciding on the text, start designing its font. Remember that the fonts should be consistent. Decorative graphics Next, put some decorative graphics on it Add color and finally paint with color code Remind everyone to arrange the symbols first and wait until all the symbols are arranged before placing the color code. Because color coding in edit mode will mess up your originally neatly arranged pictures. If you enter the color code too early, it will be very hard to sort out that part of the symbols.

Because color coding in edit mode will mess up your originally neatly arranged pictures. If you enter the color code too early, it will be very hard to sort out that part of the symbols. In addition, don’t forget to pay attention to the limit on the number of lines. It is recommended that the signature file should be four to six lines. Do not draw too many lines. Especially avoid having more words than the text of this article. Some people’s signature file has more words than the text of the article. It feels weird. Dynamic Kanban Dynamic billboard refers to the screen that continuously switches in the upper half when users browse near the BBS home directory. The content is usually lyrics, online promotions or important announcements from the site. The upper limit of the number of lines in a dynamic signboard is usually ten to eleven lines. When designing, nine to ten lines is more appropriate. 2002 Asset Management Hot, delicious and fun..

The only thing that always allows them to shine is stars ^^ not five-pointed stars Because they take up a small proportion of space, making them sparkle will not dazzle the reader. Enter the board screen The real name of the board entry screen is memo. It is the facade of the BBS discussion board. The original purpose is to let netizens who enter this board inform them of some precautions, such as board rules and the latest news. This entire page of space, in addition to advanced techniques and animation, is the biggest stage for ASCII Art. The following author provides some reference works Mingchan Station NewBoard Board I want AllenHuang Things to note when applying for board opening 1.

Well, this time I packed so many pictures into everyone at once, I almost ran out of stock :p I believe that every work has its merits and shortcomings that can be used as a reference. Feeling directly from examples is better than using long text descriptions. I hope that the readers here are already eager to give it a try and are ready to modify the screen or submit lyrics ^^ Ⅱ Postscript Why do you want to write these things? I don’t know. I just want to write and share my experience. Anyway, I am idle. I usually don’t do anything on Guan Mingchan’s Note board. I'll take advantage of these few days to write something, and also flesh out its highlights. Do you have to be artistically talented to create these ASCII works? Well, not really, because I really don’t know anything about drawing in general. No matter it's cartoons, sketches, watercolors, Chinese paintings, etc., I can only envy others ^^" I really didn’t expect that now I would have room to develop in the ASCII world. I have been playing BBS for nearly five years, but in the first two years, I didn’t even know what a color code was. It wasn’t until later that I became the moderator of a high school class board because I wanted to make the class board’s board screen and highlight area look better. I just started learning how to color text and how to draw table lines. Compared to the experts on the PTT asciiart BBSmovie Vision board The author's creative skills are just ordinary. When I usually encounter bottlenecks in drawing, I often go to these boards to browse reference materials or look for inspiration. Once I discover a powerful drawing technique, I will write it down and try to apply it to my works. I think I may never be able to reach the level of some people. . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . .
