Hi everyone,

My 23" x 35" printed Halo 2600 Source Code Poster finally arrived today. I had Cafe Press print it up (for only $20 bucks, too). It turned out great. Of course, I immediately ran to the store and got myself a frame to put it in.

Here are some pictures of the final framed poster on my wall, as well as a close up shot showing the detail. Sorry for the not-so-great image quality. The lighting in my house is not so great.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks, man! No, I haven't put that up for sale. If you want to get the Berzerk one printed, let me know and I can set it up for you.

Was looking closely at the poster and noticed a couple of spacing issues. Most people wouldn't notice them, but they are bugging me. Figures I catch these after it's printed and framed!

Do you really mean spacing or the 'empty' rows of **** ?

Since I have the copy/code force justified in the space, some of the lines look nice and filled (e.g: "12345678") while others tend to get spaced out (e.g. "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8"). I'd say 99% of the people who look at it wouldn't notice it, but I do. I've fixed the master file, so if Al decides to sell this in the store you'll be getting the good version

The asterisks, however, are actually part of the source code and I didn't want to remove them.

Ah, I see.
I was wondering already in fact.
But I only noticed it in some comment area and thought it was in fact separated with spaces
Anyway, it looks very nice and is a beautyful idea.
Also a wonderful christmas present. My fiance, are you reading this?

It was one I had special requested!

[keilbaca]

I really want a berzerk one!

This poster is amazing. I love it, it looks amazing, has a nerd factor to it, and its a huge poster of an Atari sprite. I love every little thing about it.

[Brian O]

Thanks, guys. To date, I have done two: Halo 2600 and Berzerk. Like Grant said, I created the Berzerk one at his request

I am waiting to hear back from Al in regards to selling them through the AA store. They may be a smaller size, though (~ 18" x 24" as opposed to 23" x 35").

I'll keep you guys posted.

EDIT: Here's a link to the Berzerk Poster. Disregard the imagekind link in the thread. I never finished setting that up.
