sigh.

So others can see your nice picture, I replaced your boxes with O's,
your trademark with an asterix, and your crosses with +'s.

What is that thing in the water supposed to be? (Besides the boat.)

Just a reminder, the rules are:

* use a font where all characters have the same width.

* use an editor rather than a word processor.

* don't use any "national letters" or any other "strange" characters
that may be interpreted differently by different computers (or even
different programs in one computer)

* very wide pictures can get destroyed by programs that put in a "CR" 
when it feels that the line should end. This makes the picture look very
strange, sometimes it even becomes impossible to tell what it is
supposed to look like.

* don't use tabs (because they too are interpreted differently by
different computers/programs)

Here is an ascii table of standard characters:
