Today on Mistigram – sometimes… usually the further you get from the mid-‘90s… you need a textmode logo and you just can’t find one. This was, believe it or not, a factor in the indeterminate delay of M-9808 (finally released in 2015, after waiting for 17 years – surely, enough time for a new textmode artist to be born and come of age to fulfil the demand!) But if you’re feeling more pragmatic and less… doomed… you can usually find an underutilized logo that can be spruced up and re-issued to people who genuinely haven’t seen it before. So when I was running a little short on official artgroup iconography for our MIST2000 collection of loose ends from the turn of the century, I sought out this relic from happier times – a month that we had so very many worthwhile FILE_ID.DIZ submissions we just stacked them all up in the infofile. This one is by Quip, and it’s respectable enough!
