How do you spread the word about an obscure Atari ST graphics format from the BBSing days?
Recruit some folks to help you make an artpack full of images and animations showing it off!
That's the idea behind IGNITE, an artpack from Mistigris and Break Into Chat with 18 images and animations in "Instant Graphics and Sound" format.
IGS was a graphics protocol for BBSes on the often-overlooked Atari ST computer platform. It was similar to RIPscrip, but predated it by several years, and included commands for looping, music, and animation.
