Gopherhole cosmetic work with gophermap and text art
****************************************************
25th-June-2022, Shanghai, Sunny
Hey! I finally was able to decorated a bit of my gopherhole.
In the past weeks, I was browsing the gopherholes, and so many nice
pages and text arts I saw, and I was really stuned.
## gophermap customization
--------------------------
Starting from yesterday, I try to learn how to use the gophermap to
customize the gopher page and also trying to add text art into the
gopher home page.
Yesterday after some play, I was able to set up the main page with
the gophermap file and it is looks much nicer :-)
I borrowed ice303(
[email protected] thanks buddy!)'s page layout, I
like the simplicity and cleaness.
*About* section: will short introduce myself and the gadgets I play.
*Phlog* section: phlog of cause. :-D
*Archive* section: to be added when the Phlog grows.
Other sections maybe added in the future.
## text arts
------------
I once thought that the text arts are manually made/drawn, until
today, I looked into it, and did some search, found out there are
quite some existing (online) tools for making the text art with
different fonts, and converstion tools eventually converting
pictures to ANSI arts--they are much wider though, may not fitting
in the gopher typical width(I gess somewhere said better no more
than 67 for old device compatibility, but many people use smaller
screen nowadays to view gopher would benefit for sure as well).
However I still believe the best fit/one have to be made manually,
I actually wanted to made a banner myself to describe my dream
place:
A house in the mountain valley surrounded by grass and flowers.
I don't know whether I could made myself, but I want to try it
out.
Before this, I will use the selected "Flower Power" text art on my
gopher page, I like it so much, It may looks a bit feminine, but
this is so far the best (and most like one) from all the types I
tried.
Now it is looks like a home.
Hope you guys will also like it, and enjoy the reading.
-Peter
