Thanks.. so, I've amended the rules to cover AI/copying/converting .. latest rules online here: https://c64gfx.com/compo/charsetlogocompo2025



RULES*

Fresh work only: No pre-2025 releases.

CharSet only: Max 256 unique characters.

Logo required: Must form a readable word/phrase/number.

** No AI!: Use of AI for generation or inspiration is forbidden. **

** No copying!: Please don't copy - inspiration/mimicking is ok within reason. **

** No converting!: Fresh work only as we already said. **

No VIC tricks: No sprites, rasters, or other effects (except for fade-in).

No animation: Still images only

Entries: Max 6 entries in total per person.

*We may tweak the rules slightly if needed.

if you don't know how to convert your logo to charmode, png2prg 1.10.1 is here to help you.
It supports all standard gfx-modes, including all char-modes.

Simply run a 320x200 png through png2prg with the -display flag and it should autodetect the correct gfx mode.
In case it doesn't, try forcing the mode:

png2prg -d -m petscii image.png
png2prg -d -m sccharset image.png
png2prg -d -m mccharset image.png
png2prg -d -m mixedcharset image.png
png2prg -d -m ecm image.png

Enjoy this fun compo :)

@Burg:
ECM! Yes! I like to poke in my own displayers for everything from scratch, but for ECM last time I had to bother a real coder (thanks Icon!). I’ll surely try png2prg out! Thanks!
