1. Hello, we're  back to Lord Soth's turn at  writing this...  so I'm supplying
this 0-day pack from the depths of the  dank iCE(tm) office building.  Okay,
first off I want to  apologize to a few people  over some  STUPID mistakes I
made in last month's pack.  Apologies to (in no order):  SleepWalker, Tempus
Thales, Force Ten, Cooly,  Grimace, Veks, Friar, Spiff, and Azagoth.  I also
want to apologize  to everyone out there for my blatent mistakes in the last
pack.  But onto this month.   Despite finals, AP Tests, and  post-graduation
partying,  we've got a nice  collection of  artwork this month.   The coders
also hit their compilers to put together 3 nice loaders on the side of their
more major projects.

2. We  have a whole  boatload  of new  artists  again  this month.   But first,
Biscuit  and  Masterken  have been  moved  back to  the  "Active" list,  and
BodyCount has changed his handle to Highness.  Force Ten has also started to
help us again in group administration, and he will be a big help to iCE once
again.   Our new members  include Shockwave, an old-scene  VGA artist who is
returning  to iCE after a  long stay with ACiD.  Also from ACiD comes CETiS,
who  left the scene  in June 1994 and has  returned a year  later with  iCE.
Musicphreak has also joined the group after  parting with ACiD.  Joining iCE
from  Union  comes the ansi  artists  Image,  Juice, and  #28,  who are  all
excellent  masters of  the blinking  cursor ;).  It doesn't  seem  possible,
but our long time friend, Ed.. otherwise known as Terminator 2,  has  graced
us with his presence after giving Unchained a shot.  We also want to welcome
Mahbell,  a very  talented new  ansi artist,  and also Delsion,  a demoscene
graphician  from  Finland  who  previously  did  some  of  the  graphics for
Epidemic.  Finally, but not to be discredited,  the coder Greater Evil comes
from Relic bearing gifts,  namely RIP code in C that has been implemented in
iCEView this month.

2½.We had 3  departures this  month.  Nttk, aka Culture Shock, has left iCE and
joined  ACiD.   Quazar decided he didn't have  time to  make the comback  he
started,  and Grateful  Dead has left and joined  Vintage.  We wish them all
luck!

3. Congratulations to Borian, who is now a daddy to a happy, healthy, baby boy.
Lets hope Borian Jr gets some of dad's talent :)   Also, happy 18th Birthday
to Neurotic.  (HAAAAAPPPPPYYYY BBBIIIIIRRRRTTTTTHHH.....)

4. The Number to out WHQ, Sanctuary, is now 305-KNOW-iCE. Tempus has moved once
again :).  But, guess what.. he's still a big fag.

5. Toon Goon's System 1 ansi is not being re-released.   He did not mean for it
to be released  last month, although through  miscommunication I  put it in.
The ansi in last month's pack was not finished, and the version in this pack
has alot of changes in it.  My apologies to TG again.

6. As always, you can buy VGA, Rip, Ansis, or full graphics/music presentations
by contacting us at  ice@freedom.wit.com  or slothy@netcom.com  (by the way,
ansis do not really cost $100-200, that was an April Fools' joke :)

7. The following  files are viewable  in the  viewer  although they  have  been
stripped of 65,534/65,535ths of their colors to further enhance your viewing
pleasure:

8. Hi Ellis Dee. ;)

9. Rick, dood, are you like.. an ansi recruiter?  You are?  Then welcome to iCE
dood! :D

0. For an up-to-date of how well iCE is coming along in the ansi scene, please
refer to the well written and all-together  accurate  article  by Stone The
Crow aptly entitled "iCE SUX."  We feel it captures the spirit of our group
to a tee..

Have fun viewing!
