BBS Banner is An Actively maintained Banner Exchange program for Bulletin Board systems.
The purpose of this site is to give bbs enthusiasts a free service to show their systems.
This service is different than the few BBS Banner sites we have available:
* Users can provide a web OR telnet link on their banners
* Banner size is slightly larger than other available banner exchange sites, and accepts most image formats
* Banner does not have a watermark from the bbs banner site on the user's banner image.

Hi all. Just giving a heads up about a project I've been working on, FlashTem.
It's a flash telnet terminal that I plan to release for free. Right now I'm
beta testing it with some select boards. You can check out the demo at
www.flashterm.com.
