Was the prompt “chunky” or “chonker”, by the way? Maybe I misheard… 😉

#WeeklyTeletextArt

A Level 2.5 teletext graphic of a blue and white chocolate bar wrapping on a purple background. The wrapping has the word "Diary Bilk" in big serif letters, with "Crudeberry's" in smaller gold text above and "Chunky" in the corner. Below the bar is the slogan "one chunk leads to another".

A Level 1 teletext graphic of a blue and white chocolate bar wrapping on a magenta background. The wrapping has the word "Diary Bilk" in big serif letters, with "Crudeberry's" in smaller yellow text above and "Chunky" in the corner. Below the bar is the slogan "one chunk leads to another".

For the upcoming #ChunkyFringe the #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt is "Chunky" and/or "Fringe".

Here's a #teletext nod to an old chocolate advert; regrettably trademarks have had to be altered for legal reasons.

The ChunkyText user pages magazine has been cleared out ready for next weekend, and the edit server is LIVE NOW.

I thought since we have a week to go until Chunky Fringe maybe we should call those a #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt for anyone needing a bit of artistic inspiration 😁

Your Art Here in teletext mosaic lettering

Teletext artists:
In the past I've done an artist showcase – a page for each artist to show off a few of their best/favourite creations, and a short (3-4 line) bio.

The online editing server will be enabled closer the event as usual for new artworks, and I might pick a #WeeklyTeletextArt theme 😄

People seem to have drifted off it again. I'm tempted to let "Spaceship" run for another week. #WeeklyTeletextArt

A teletext recreation of the final level of the arcade game Phoenix with a small ship shooting away the hull of a big yellow mothership.

The #weeklyteletextart prompt this week was "spaceship".

So here's a re-posting of a #teletext recreation of the final level of the shoot-em-up arcade game "Phoenix", featuring one of the first examples of an end-of-game boss.

The X-303 'Prometheus' for a last-minute #WeeklyTeletextArt "Spaceship"

Whoops, it's been a slightly longer week than usual hasn't it... Oh well, the next #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt is "Spaceship" 🛸

Justadude is back with another #WeeklyTeletextArt piece! So is this what happens if you don't brush your teeth? 🤔

Prompt: #Chameleon + #Dentist

#ceefax #teletext #pixelart #videotext #1bit #textmode

Teletext artwork of a dentist's chair with "Open Wide!" in bold lettering

Open wide #WeeklyTeletextArt

New #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt: "Dentist" and/or "Chameleon"

Justadude's teletext artwork of a landscape depicting a red and purple building beneath a sky of two gradiented shades of blue.

Justadude offers some #WeeklyTeletextArt with his colourful #landscape piece. Nice work on the clouds!

Prompt: 🔵#Blue + 🏙️#Sky

(I haven't made one for this prompt... yet...)

I've been a bit under the weather this week (not a pun) so it's been hard to sit up at the PC and work on a #WeeklyTeletextArt, but I've been inspired by @therebeccariots.bsky.social's Weather Watch hat

It's Saturday again, and this week's completely random #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt is "Blue and/or Sky" for no reason in particular 😏

Teletext art of a dude with long hair and a red hoodie pointing a staple gun at you, firing off bits of metal as you instantly regret visiting those pirate music websites. And then, the final words you hear before you are taken to the station: 'never illegally download'.

A quick entry for #WeeklyTeletextArt because I'm working on Advent calendar stuff.

Prompt: #Pirates 🏴‍☠️

"Always pay for music, never illegally download," otherwise a dude with a staple gun will break through your door.

Teletext artwork of the pirate station Radio Caroline aboard the MV Mi Amigo

Teletext artwork of the pirate station Radio Caroline aboard the MV Mi Amigo, with a level 2.5 teletext colour palette, and a radiating signals effect

I took too long starting my #WeeklyTeletextArt "pirates" image again so @jamienemeth.bsky.social beat me to my idea 😆
Since he already took the Ross Revenge, I figured I'd do the Mi Amigo instead 😁
(The radiating signals effect animates)
#Teletext #RadioCaroline

Teletext pixel artwork of the Radio Caroline ship 'Ross Revenge' (red ship with a large transmission mast and the text 'radio caroline' on the side of the upper decks), on the sea against a background of a relatively clear sky with a few fluffy clouds.

Getting in on the #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt: Pirates!

I'm surprised I was first in with this idea, I'll be honest! Radio Caroline felt an obvious choice.

In a way, we're all now doing 'pirate' teletext!

A little piece for the #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt: Pirates!

Because Teletext art alone isn’t obscure enough, let’s add an obscure software piracy reference to the mix! 💾🏴‍☠️

Radio Jackie logo recreated in Level 2.5 teletext. On a white background is a thick red line that is bent into an abstract almost rectangular shape suggesting the letters R and J, with a thick red dot at the top right. Below the design is text that reads "107.8 Radio Jackie. The Sound of SW London".

Radio Jackie logo recreated in Level 1 teletext. On a white background is a thick red line that is bent into an abstract almost rectangular shape suggesting the letters R and J, with a thick red dot at the top right. Below the design is text that reads "107.8 Radio Jackie. The Sound of SW London".

Thinking outside the box for the #WeeklyTeletextArt "pirates" prompt.

Taking classic Level 1 #teletext decoders into account with "safety" foreground blue so the black foreground doesn't get hidden, and "safety" double height so ignored double size doesn't leave a spurious black stripe.

This Saturday's #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt was chosen by new teletextr Wizzle: "Pirates" Yaarrrrr 🏴‍☠️

#WeeklyTeletextArt in the house!

Prompt:🕰️On Time (I bent the rulez, though I am actually on time!)

Also: foreground black 4ever

A figure leaps towards the door of an old British Rail train, from a dark coloured car on a railway platform. Teletext artwork with a more natural colour palette.

Stretching the definition of the "On Time" prompt to breaking point for my #WeeklyTeletextArt. And it's another exciting round of "what's the #teletext film scene?" that everyone enjoys so much... 😄

Teletext graphic of an isometric train pulling into a station with colourful buildings and an analogue clock. A pixel art man waits on the other side of the platform with his yellow dog.

A timely #WeeklyTeletextArt entry from Justadude for the prompt 'on time'!

My entry will come sometime later in the week, but hopefully still on time. (I'll stop saying the word 'time' now.)

I nearly forgot #WeeklyTeletextArt again, but luckily @illarterate.bsky.social reminded me and I'll repay him with mild teasing by making this week's prompt "On Time" 😄

Teletext artwork of a dark red/burgundy limo with large chrome bumper on a dark brown background with grey/blue sky

A 1970s Lincoln Continental limousine for #WeeklyTeletextArt.
The level 2.5 version tweaks some of the more stubborn Hold Mosaic issues slightly, and expands out the background for a cinematic look.

Some great horsepower artwork this #WeeklyTeletextArt from #teletext artists old and new.
This week I thought we'd ignore the end-of-October-in-the-room and go back to random words, but the random picker chose "Pumpkin" and/or "Limousine" 😄

A teletext horse champs at the burger, snorting and chomping on his beefy dinner. The burger, overflowing with lettuce, fits perfectly into Neddy's mouth. A tribute to '90s teletext artist Steve Horsley, whose nickname is "Horsenburger".

#WeeklyTeletextArt time again, and actually within the 'deadline'! 😲

Prompt: #Horsepower 🐴💪

This #horse is powered by burgers, much like @horsenburger.bsky.social himself.

Sherlock Horse neighs, erm, weighs in for this week’s #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt, horsepower!

There's an art exhibition currently happening on actual broadcast teletext in Finland (they, as well as many other places in the world, enviably still have the teletext we knew and loved, unlike the UK):

(There's also an ongoing #WeeklyTeletextArt prompt to look out for.)
