VIC20 Haiku Creator - Poetry in 3.5 Kilobytes

This week on Chickenhead Chronicles I am sharing my Haiku generation program I created a few years ago. While I created and designed it on my unexpanded VIC20, it works 100% on anything from an original PET to a Plus/4 to the modern C64 Ultimate!

Here is a link to the program code:

DCTV for the Amiga - The updated review and tutorial.

This week on 10 Minute Amiga Retro Cast I am updating my seven year old DCTV video and having loads of fun doing it! Join me as we learn about scanning in images, importing JPEG's and PNG's and animating in full 24 bit color! 

Take a peak at Hold and Modify! We have been working on some DCTV stuff together for a while now.

Go ahead and buy a copy of ImageFX even if you don't have a DCTV

Take a look at my old DCTV video if you want to. The audio is bad, but I am still as handsome as ever.
