WANTED: Someone to convert ANSI to PETSCII

Howdy.

I have commissioned some BBS screens in ANSI format that are simply amazing. Unfortunately, the artist doesn't know anything about doing PETSCII.

I am willing to pay to have these screens converted from ANSI to PETSCII. The graphics are not heavily shaded nor full of dual-color cells.

The URL to the graphics is:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0By1chBa0OtQpVzhNdlNvYXJJbHBfQ..

If you're interested in the job, please PM me with a price and when you could have it done.

C64aae is supposed to be a good one, but the download link is broken on their site. It's the only one I know of that outputs SEQ.

If anyone knows of a tool that converts a screen and color map to a SEQ file that'd be incredible as the screen tools out there are pretty damn good.

You were saying?

Can you name a Windows or Online PETSCII editor that does output SEQ?

Um, did you read the part about the author of the ANSI not knowing anything about C64, or was that detail too non-l33t for you?

Biggest issue with the screens provided is they're 80 columns wide.
Scale down to 40 columns, and suddenly there are many many blocks that have two non-background colours.

Any conversion's going to have to lose either detail or colour fidelity.

petscii and typical ansi gfx is made very differently anyway, so anything but a complete remake wouldnt work at all (or look like crap)

That took me about 4 hours. I'm sure a more competent artist could do it much more quickly. Now I don't know about you, but I'd say that's a pretty fair approximation of the original.
