Well, as we are a small warez 3l1t3 community, I think we should do it like some others do/did: Create our own intro!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3TzIEc2Sm4&feature=related

Intro is a stuff crackers/pirates but in their shared products. These kinds of intro's can still be found on illegal software even today, but the heyday was on the Commodore/Amiga/BBS era. Its either an .exe file that comes in the game folder or which is programmed to play at the beginning of the game.

It consists of three things:

Animation
Music
Greetings

Animation, as you can see from the example video, isnt very straightforward. Its a basic animation demo you might see on a amiga convention or something.

Music is usually a one of those popular songs or self-made stuff.

Greetings is a long text which goes underneath the animation. This usually has some basic message like "Another fine crack from ***, provided by ***". In the heyday, these greetings also contained messages and "greetz" sented to other pirate-groups. There's also sometimes list of names of the group (I love this one), addresses (we could add the site address and see how many people will visit here)...etc.

So, we need someone to do the animations and the musical piece. Anyone can write a message, but I think I could make the example (as I consider myself a good writer).

Any volunteers?

I have some music sitting around from an old abandoned Wolfenstein mod of mine. I'll have to ask the guy who made it, but otherwise... Smile I can also try programming some exe thingy (statically linked to SDL, maybe).

i think you misunderstood the whole point of "intros"

intros are put into patches/cracks/rips/stuff created by themselves as a stamp or a signature for recognition
this is just a sharing forum board.

AND even though if you wanted to make an intro, people create their own intros and music, don't copy or rip off anything

No need to be so harsh Russ.
We only want to put an intro into our uploads to gain more members, because there are like 5-10 active people on this forum.
