open notepad, type up some text and save it as .txt

you can't have images in there, but you could try to draw some ASCII art anyways.

Or...

You could go the long way and use Turing to make it...seeing as this is a Turing Help Forum you are posting in.

This will tell you everything you need to know, but of course you'll understand none of it considering how "really really really new" you are to this game.

And no, you cannot have pictures in a textfile.

If I havn't scared you off yet, repost/PM me.

Woah! tony! In a really scathing mood today aren't we!?

And this is the right forum Laughing ?

lisa89: A text file is exactly what it says. It is text only. Text in a text file can not have any formatting. No bold, no underline, no blue color, no indent etc... Hence, no pictures. Any editor (MS Word, WordPad, NotePad, NoteTab Light, Dev C++, Turing) can create a text file. When you click "Save as..." change the extension to ".txt" and make sure that in the lower box "All files." is selected.

Why do you need to know how to make a text file anyways?

I guess I just happened to look at a bunch of topics in which you had uncharacteristically been quite obtuse to the posters...not a bad thing at all...but I guess it was just a coincindinky...
