So after some clarifications I made my hopefully last changes.
As this one version has colors, and not 100% the same as used by Profik in their slideshow, I removed myself from the creators of GoGrey, as due to the two line's modification it is not my creation in 100% (BTW the B&W version was created by me too).
Also I deleted that it is released by Profik, as they made some small modiciations, so they did not release the same picture what I made.

Hopefully it is all right for everyone now and 100% legit :-D
Just for clarification (before someone will say I just cloned the picture from Profik): my picture was made BEFORE Profik's GoGray demo, so this one is the original version, later on created (based on Profik request) a B&W version. I have enough PETSCII edit file from 2017 to prove it for anyone interested.

Thanks for the comments. Sorry for not reacting earlier, busy days, ill kids. (but they are OK now).
I have several versions from this PETSCII back to 2017, and it was a kind of cooperation between Larry and me agreed after the 2017 Arok party. This picture was made for their use, not planned as a standalone release.
Profik is a really great team, with some really great ideas and demos. This GoGrey looks fantastic. I know my picture contributed almost nothing to their final rank or the quality of the demo, just added a little atmosphere to it, I wanted to challange the Amiga loading screen in a way.
I just though it was well made, and may add to my listing with some background info.
BTW the same made in colors originally for the Plus/4 IHFLI slideshow as a "moving it object", but it was finally not used. If you see this link, it is from 2017, so yes, it happened and the first finished version was realy at the end of 2017 :-)

The comment related to the red color is true. On plus/4 is is a very dark red, but during the conversion it turned to simple red. Due to some config issus Marq's great PETSCII editor shows the colors much darker than reality (in C64 mode) on my screen, while in Plus/4 is is correct. Maybe a config problem, maybe my monitor. Also VICE does not help too much, except using Community Color setting :-) So I highly recommend forget original VICE C64 colors, it is not faithful according to my view.
I uploaded a new version with a darker color (hopefully it is closer to reality :-) )

Come to think of it, the red is probably dark red instead of light. Updated prg behind the same link.

This wasn't the one used in the demo Go Gray and unless this version was actually spread at the 2018 party, can't be set as released there but released today.

BTW I no way linked to the creation of Larry's fantastic GFX converter or the bitmap arts created for the slideshow. That is 100% Profik.

Loader screen used in C64 demo GoGray as a humble contribution from me. The PETSCII picture originally planned for Plus/4 Dreamtime 2K18, but during th process created a C64 version (a Color and a B&W one). With Marq's tool it is pretty easy to do.
The B&W, slightly modified version can be found in the Profik demo GoGray, really fantastic idea. Certainly my small PETSCII did not contribute too much in the ranking, so I just mentioned, where and when it was released.
