A text file AMV? That'd be a hoot.
That's easy enough, given a reasonably slow display device. Back in the day of serial terminals (you should be old enough to have a reasonable chance to remember?) there were lots of ANSI animations, and ASCII too I suppose.. (I mean just text-screens with a form-feed between them, though using some positioning codes makes for far better animations.)
If you want, I could make an ANSI AMV, but it'd need a program that displays it timed to be much use.. (You'd play the music in a separate program of course.) Indeed using AAlib you can convert existing AMVs easily, though it is of course much more impressive to do it by hand (better looking too, if done by someone halfway competent). I'd be willing to do a really short one by hand..
(And this is getting waay off topic, but who can blame us? Maybe I can suggest an ANSI AMV contest to make it more on topic..)
I'm sure we've all had firsts. Take it easy guys, at least he had the balls to consider hosting a contest. This kid has only made one AMV he's not a big shot like you think you are. Ohh, if you don't like the rules, then blow it out your ass and move on. Keep the forum nice for everyone, not just self proclaimed AMV masters like yourselves.
