Hi,

I like ASCII and I am also hopelessly nostalgic for the old-style smiley faces. I love Lord Nightmare's raw CGA tileset on the Wiki. Not only is it a beautiful character set, it also feels great to know that you're using the real stuff. Still, the raw tileset isn't perfectly suited to Dwarf Fortress ... So here's a version: Increased line height to 8x9 for readability, fixes to walls etc. to make them continuous again, ▓ was weird, too-wide æ character touched up.

Pixel-doubled, which is what I use:

Plain 8x9:
