   Congratulations and welcome to sysophood. I only launched my very own   
   bbs last October and love it.   
      
   I'm creative enough to make something ugly. And, if you don't mind some   
   unsolicited advice, start slowly.   
      
   While I still haven't created any ANSI art for my own bbs, I have   
   created ASCII art. I started with figlet, playing with various fonts,   
   and going from there.   
      
   I have a feeling my move to using ANSI will eventually replace my   
   ascii. For now, though, it's perfectly suitable as it is so I may not.   
      
   I also take old ansi art and play with it locally. Nothing I've done   
   would ever be suitable on a bbs.   
      
   I just wish it were easier to render CP437 on a linux terminal.
