History
Fire was founded in July 1994 by ANSI artists Donut Hole and Vendetta as a parody of iCE, one of the top art groups of the time. From the second pack onward, the group was ostensibly led by Halaster, who gradually elevated Fire by recruiting talented artists from regional art groups, and by becoming a competent ANSI artist himself. After releasing monthly collections of their work, Fire planned a merger with Canadian artscene group Mistigris, in March of 1995. The merger was unsuccessful and Fire collapsed shortly thereafter when Halaster quit the group to join ACiD. Image resolution describes the detail an image holds. ...

In August of 1995, Halaster quit ACiD and re-formed Fire. After its rebirth, Fire became a popular and critically successful group, releasing artwork and applications such as the DOS based ANSI editor, Pyrodraw. At various points in time, Fire was home to some of the most respected ANSI artists in the scene, including Iodine, Eerie and Prisoner #1. ‹ The template below has been proposed for deletion. ...
Through most of its history, Fire was headquartered at The Regency BBS, located in Atlanta's 404 area code. The Regency was one of the only dial-up BBSs that transitioned to IP technology via use of the telnet protocol. This transition was short-lived and only marginally successful, but allowed Fire to retain its headquarters after most BBSs had closed. The Regency's geographic location contributed to the early history of the group, as most of its initial artistic roster hailed from Atlanta.
Not unlike the relationship between ACiD Productions and Remorse ASCII, Fire had a separate ASCII sub-group called Fire ASCII. Fire also maintained a separate music/tracking entity called Radiance. ACiD Productions (ACiD) is an underground digital art group. ...
