Two 256b VGA intros w/ src (Boxes, Astroids 2) -- Grenhald

Para512: 512b paratrooper w/ src -- vid

"regression...": three 256b demos w/ src (Flower256, Bounce256, Wobble256) -- relsoft

P.S. I hate to link to my own stuff, but anyways ... tiny .ZIP viewers (106 bytes -> ATV; 122, 254 bytes -> me)

Misc. demo URLs (not necessarily for FASM):
http://www.pouet.net
http://www.scene.org
http://www.frontiernet.net/~fys/hugi/hcompo.htm
http://www.hugi.scene.org/compo/ (has newer 64-byte compo entries)
