totally by hand!
took me about 3 hours.
It'd probably have been faster to setup a spectrum emulator and some kind of screngrabber, but that would've been cheating :oD

it was certainly 3 hours well spent...looks very realistic...thought ya might of used a speccy screen generator or something...

that to make a real spectrum do the same would only take a couple of kilobytes of data.
On a similar topic, did anyone else ever try plugging in a microphone into their spectrum and making screeching noises at it in the hope it might actually load something from the sound? (best I could manage was the bdeeeeeeee noise to make the border roll)

that pic of us all looking down at the camera that alfie took at the Dragon Bar really captured the moment perfectly. Maybe that could be turned into an something else.
