Oh, just the usual stuff:

1. Read the FAQ.
2. Understand the FAQ.
3. Read some tutorials.
4. Experiment.
5. Study what others have done.
6. Post doodles and diddles to this group...

(not necessarily in exactly that order)

Yours and everybody else's!  :)

Here are some of my first attempts:


     /*                     ___              */
     /*                    /  \\             */
     /*             ______ \  //        1    */
     /*            /      \/ o \       ---   */
     /*   ________/             \       2    */
     /*           \_  \__\ \-----o           */
     /* VK          \____|\__|               */



     /*       YYYYYYYYY             */
     /*       | o   o |      1      */
     /*      @    o    @    ---     */
     /*       | _____ |      4      */
     /*       | \___/ |             */
     /* VK     \_____/              */


     /*                            /\/\             */
     /*   ________________________/ @@ \       3    */
     /*   -------.   _________   > ____/<     ---   */
     /*          ||||         ||||             4    */
     /* VK       ||||         ||||                  */
