👾 Welcome to the C64GFX Newsletter!
Sorry to email again so soon — turns out yesterday’s email had a background issue on some devices, making it hard to read. Hopefully this one’s looking better!
We’re absolutely thrilled to launch the very first edition of the C64GFX newsletter! 🎉 Here’s where you’ll get fresh updates about competitions, pixel art, tools, and community news — straight to your inbox.
Things might slow down a little over the next few months as I focus on wrapping up Sabre Wulf Remastered — thanks for your patience and ongoing support!

🎨 CharSet Logo Compo 2025
A brand new compo is live! Create a logo using just C64 character sets. Simple concept — amazing results.
We've already had over 20 awesome entries (plus a couple of fun “out of compo” submissions) — and there's still plenty of time to join in!
It's super easy to enter: either email your work directly to us, or upload it to CSDb and let us know. And you don’t have to be a scener — anyone is welcome to take part!
🛠️ How You Can Help C64GFX
🔧 Suggest Fixes:
Spot a missing artist credit, a mistagged image, or a dodgy screenshot? Hit the “Suggest Changes” button! You can even attach an image. These go straight into our inbox and usually get addressed the same day.
📈 Grow the Database:
Know a demo or production we’re missing? Have local art files you'd love to share? Drop us a line — we’re always on the lookout for more amazing content to archive and showcase.
💻 Help With Development:
I'm not a web developer by trade — more of a C++ and assembler kind of guy. If you're a front-end or full-stack dev with time and curiosity, let’s chat! We could use your help improving site features and fixing the rough edges.
💸 Support the Site:
We’ve added a donation system to help keep things running. Hosting, storage, and several key features rely on paid services:
Netlify, AWS, Clerk, MongoDB, Web3Forms, Font Awesome — the list goes on. If you’re enjoying the site, even a small donation makes a big difference. Thank you! 🙏
📬 Until Next Time
We’re aiming to send out a new newsletter every 2–4 weeks. If you’ve got feedback, ideas, or pixel-art news to share — just reply!
Thanks again for being part of the scene 💾
