Title: ZX Spectrum-tan
Post by: C-Chan on July 30, 2006, 10:31:27 PM
Hello all.
This is a bit of a stretch since I only have her in chibi form AND I really meant for her to be just on my signature.  But in consideration for all the die-hard Sinclair aficionados who've been demanding their representative OS-tan (day in and day out, if I might add... ^^'), I guess this will have to do until a full-body version is completed.  ^___^'

Besides, at least I can record [what I hope is] the first ever ZX Spectrum-tan in history....  ^__^

<<<<NOTE: PICTURE MOVED TO THE ANNEX>>>>

Short on time, but detailed bio will ensue.  Just three quick bullets and then I'll leave youz all alone for now....  ^__^'

1)  You can read more about the ZX Spectrum system here if you'd like:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zx_spectrum

2)  People familiar with the system (or who've at least completed bullet #1) will understand why Spectrum-tan's wearing a buriti on her head, valenkis on her feet and a tape recorder on her belt, and seems to not mind a level of color-clashing that should be illegal.

3)  Please don't mind the pig.  -_-'

LOL!  You guys are the greatest!  ^-^

BTW, if you think THAT clashing's bad, wait till you see Spectrum-tan's rendition of Altered Beast:

Ah, a ZX Spectrum was my first computer, I have some fond memories of it.    I used to program a lot in BASIC with it, since I had few games for it to begin with.   Unfortunately, one day it just blew up (yeah, it did.  plugged in the power supply and up in smoke the computer went).    RIP.

How sad...ashes to ashes, dust to dust. I hope there are enough left in fifty years. My life's dream is to create the world's only FUNCTIONING computer history museum. I would put the original computers on display, and make copies for visitors to use. Alas, if it could only come true...

Hey, Im a lax guardian.  I remind people to stay on topic, delete posts from bots, and im going though and deciding a few threads that need to be locked or deleated (like some of the hentai ones panda posted that no longer display images)

Okay. Sounds good. We'll keep this thread if anyone wants to know more about ZX-tan.

Hold that thought, Captain.  I might just do that for most of these individual -tan threads once I get all their stuff migrated to the Annex.  -__-

SilentBob, did I tell you you're my next best friend?  ^.^
Any info you can offer on the ZX Spectrum is appreciated, since I never used it and am developing Spectrum-tan's character ENTIRELY by ear based on what scant info I can collect....  ^^'

And NewYinzer... *sniff*
Bless your heart for having such an ambitious dream.  The girls of the Binteeji Renmei ("Vintage Federation") salute you.  ^-^\

Well this is it.  Everything I needed from this thread has been moved to the Annex (http://ostan.blackdiam.net/viewtopic.php?t=231)

I should have all the information pertaining to my ZX Spectrum rendition there, plus any additional updates I may have since the time of this writing.  -v-

Thanks to those who participated in this thread.  ^__^
Time to close shop now....

*shakes can of spray paint*
