Much better!  Deep thought is right...I found my files on the desktop because my program and .bmp were in different folders.  But that's a minor detail, because I can say in the instructions "program and bitmap must be in same folder."

Okay, now the program allows illegal filenames (I put a ! in front of the program name), name needs to be forced to 8 characters, and, if possible, accept only monochrome bitmaps.

upper case A-Z only, right? i can do that.

Numbers are allowed after the first character (the first character must be uppercase A-Z)

Mine detected whether or not the bitmap was monochrome, so if nemo used the code it should also do that. Grayscale chars would be awesome, though ;)

EDIT: Theta? Would that be valid?

You mean you aren't supporting grayscale characters! *gasp*

Lol, I wouldn't mind if someone wanted to use my source code to implement it, but I'm not messing with grayscale

I should've worked harder on this, but I haven't really understood the goal/what is Correlation yet :S

Nice Hot_Dog, but you should change text-based to ASCII-based because it tends to confuse people. Text-based literally means not even ASCII sprites, just sentences describing the area you're in plus menus. Or you can say ASCII-art tilemaps.

Just FYI, .net is cross platform if it works with mono....:P

I like the starcraft sprites!

Saw your PM, anything I can do, or is it definitely just Paint?
