| If an entry of mine is deemed "Out of Compo" (which is totally fine, btw--helps me figure out where the rule edge cases are) may I submit more entries that conform to the rules? |

| Nb. In my original post I mentioned that you could use CharPad or Pixcen to count chars… later removed from the rules section completely. The tool we’ll be using, when needed, will be PNG2PRG. Unless the PRG supplied already meets requirements - many last year were “valid” char-mode graphics but the displayer used was showing them in Koala/bitmap mode. Those all qualified. |

| @Katon: for sure, so long as it’s not already released/published by anyone (including those pesky preservers) :-) |

| Is it possible to publish in this competition a logo painted in 1996, which has been lying on a floppy disk for 29 years and has not been published anywhere? |

| One more: mimicking of brand logos is ok. |
