Forum: Too Lazy BBS

Custom pixel art emojis on my custom BBS

From BBS ( /u/PunkyRooo https://www.reddit.com/user/PunkyRooo ) to All on Thu Jun 25 14:28:06 2026

After a brief hiatus, I am back working on my custom BBS (Dead Information Society | http://disbbs.org ) and I wanted a way to add a little more visual spice to my command-line driven, text only interface. While a pop-up, mouse-driven pixel editor deviates quite heavily from the current UX, I'm hoping the benefit is worthwhile.
Users can then use :name: to utilize any of the pixel art as emoji in chat and other areas of the BBS.
I am envisioning how this could be expanded upon... other art features like a graffiti wall.... and maybe even using the sprites in custom or community built games. submitted by /u/PunkyRooo [link] [comments]
