Group with great interest. I know I've got a lot of replies to catch
up on, but my main priorities right now are finishing Goodnite
Luddite (currently 54/64) for a 2nd December release, and finishing
Ma jolie (13/20) for release in the first twenty weeks of 2003.
BTW, does anyone know the *exact* release-dates of the original Manic
Miner, Jet Set Willy, and JSW II? I believe MM was released in August
1983, and JSW between January and March 1984 (because of the "April
Showers" room in Your Sinclair).

much deliberation the answer has to be no, I'm afraid.
The title-picture has to be a screenshot of a MM/JSW room. I want
people who visit this Group for the first time to think, "Wow, isn't
this that game I remember from the 1980s? And it can be edited?
Amazing!"

yet! I recently scanned in a photo of Daniela Hantuchová, which
produced a TIFF file larger than a megabyte! :-(

2003 - the earliest day that I might be leaving university. After
that, I hope to bring my website back at a new address, although
nothing is certain at this stage.
