Original Date: June 18, 1993 Last Update: January 21, 1994 Penny's MahJongg Tiles - for use with - Nels Anderson's EGA MahJongg These tiles were created for a black background. Sometimes I use a dark gray background if my eyes are hurting after too many hours of play, but I like the added effect of black. It may sometimes be necessary to press F8 to see which tiles cancel each other out, I mean the two groups of four listed last. They are similar but don't always match. These tiles were specifically created for Nels' MahJongg - they may not look as good in other programs with different color palettes. ----> Penny's tiles are listed in order of creation <---- 01. Aliens ...... Robots, spaceships and creatures. 02. Doodles ..... Sketches of things. 03. Trains ...... Penny's favorite train set. 04. Kid Stuff ... Toys, candy and fun. 05. Just Stuff .. Pretty little drawings of stuff. 06. Abstract .... Colorful shapes and designs. 07. Insanity .... Designed to be difficult. 08. Tuffy ....... Tuff but pretty. Wear your glasses. 09. Granny ...... This reminds me of grandma's crochet. 10. Mosaic ...... Beautiful textures and colors. 11. The Visit ... Penny's spaceman visits a little brown planet that looks like an oatmeal cookie in space.

I am insecure and would like to know how I'm doing, or at least whether I should continue to thrust my doodling upon an already weary world. My husband Sam says he likes them, but... what else could he say?? He has to live here. I am making more, I just can't stop. I enjoy the hobby. I reserve all rights over my art and ideas, I might want to use them for another project. My tiles may be freely circulated for use with Nels Anderson's MahJongg Game. Nels has done a great job. His MahJongg Game and Tile Maker has given me a wonderful outlet for my creative obsessions. I love art projects. I almost forgot to mention how much I have enjoyed all the hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours of playing this beautifully designed game. But I can't help remembering what William Shatner said to his Trekies, on Saturday Night Live, he said "Get A Life, Will You People?" Does that make us Nelsies?

Thanks. |-------------------------------------| | I monitor FidoNet gaming messages | |-------------------------------------| | I am no longer on America On Line | |-------------------------------------| Please write to me soon..... We will be moving to Alamogordo, New Mexico soon. I will still be monitoring FidoNet gaming messages, but we won't be on America On Line any more. There is no local phone number listed for Alamogordo. So we must conclude that AOL is not available there. That is disappointing. It will be harder to get my tile sets out to the world. I will not know my new address till I get there. When I get it I will include it with a tile set and impose on one of my fans to put it on AOL so you will know where to write to me. We plan to move in April. It sure is pretty there. My tiles are also available on Nels Anderson's board. The phone number for it is listed in your game files. Sam will continue to put them on that board for me. Also Sam says our mail will be forwarded for a while for this address. So please write to me. Moving April '94. There is a possibility that we may move before April. We will if we can get everything done ahead of schedule. Bye.... Please Tell Me Your Favorite Tile Set.... END TRANS
