Is there anything like this available for an Atari 1040ST? I am
involved with a group called Slipshod productions which produces
Star Trek parodies on video (NB this is for our own personal
enjoyment, and *not* for profit; we don't plan on selling
*anything* we produce, merely showing them at conventions, *free
of charge*). Anyway, I have an Atari 1040ST, but I know next to
nothing about graphics. It would be nice if I could get this
package for my machine and then produce the credits for our
projects.
If there is such a package, would the quality be reduced considerably
when used on a TV? I haven't got a colour monitor, and don't have the
resources for acquiring one. (ie. I'm relatively broke)
