Skyline BBS (currently at version 1.32, I believe) by Michael Cox is 
probably what you're thinking of.  It supports the SkyPix graphics 
protocol, which allows for the drawing of graphics, brushes, playing of 
sounds, and creation of mouse hit-boxes on screen.  For a fairly good (if 
not fully polished) example of this BBS, call Valhalla East at 
215/431-2153, based right here in West Chester.
