I wasted so much time trying to make non-terrible animated ANSI art with TheDraw. I remember the first time I realized I could run it in 80x43 mode instead of 80x25 mode and my mind was completely blown.

I also remember what a pain it was if you wanted to change color schemes. Especially on an animated piece. I had a BBS animated main screen that originally was red and yellow and at some point I decided bright blue and green would be more “3733+” and I needed to step through it character by character.
