: LOL! That is really great Ernie. You're just nuts!

: BTW, which terminal text did you decide to use?

Thanks everyone for your kind comments. :)
I ended up using a Custom made terminal that featured a bio on this atrist called Otto Rogers (hey, it was so I could pass it off as part of my OA Art Class, heh).
Thats followed by a screen saying:

a collection of thoughts and ideas,
Familiar as if from a dream

[.:.] PageUP to Return to Otto Rogers Bio
[`:`] PageDown to continue

from there on in, I used the Marathon Rubicon Dream Terminals (the one that describes the Meeting of Kate, the running for threedays straight one, and
and the running towards the horizon terminal.
After that, I believe I put in the 'eat the path' dream terminal about the maze(accompnied by a Blue tinted version of the zooming-in ghost from Marathon:Red).

I put in the last bit of text from the Tempust Irae Scenario's endscreen (i transcribed it), and accompanied it with the Allice in Wonderland images from Rubicon.

A bunch of the Jjaro terminals from infinity (the demo terminal texts) But I altered hacked the deep blue color of the Terminal Browser to be a more deep Aqua, so that it contrasted with the default light aqua color. That, and the JJaro 'fused circles' symbol, and the "rake lines" from an M:Inf. terms I tinted this blue color too. It looks reaally nice!

I included the 1st Terminal from my scenario (Yes Scifiteki, I'm still working on it, its EXAMS right now for me man!) Where Monsters Are In Dreams.
The Story 'Shadows of the Future' I wrote that had Arthur Frane in it was also put into the terminal. Theres some others, but I forget.

The funniest comment I got this morning in my art class was "What is it..? A Futuristic ATM?"
Lol, sad, ignorant non-bungie fans... hehe.
People seem quite impressed with it in person too. I'm glad people liked it.
I'll be updated the site (and notifing here as well) when:
- I get the video of it in use made/uploaded
- Get the plastic transparency for the keypad printed off
- Post a Links section to the origional thread at applefritter.com's forums.

Thanks to everyone who contributed idea for the terminal too. It helped!

Regards,
-Ernie
