============================================================================


   NOTE:  Since Bob Allison ( Scarecrow ) gave up as Moderator of
          "rec.arts.ascii" newsgroup his Scarecrow Ascii archives
           have become difficult to access. Their future is uncertain.

          The following Ascii Art archives may still be operating 
          but there is NO GUARANTEE of their validity or continuance.

9  Where can I find ASCII art?
------------------------------

You can FTP and Gopher ASCII art (single pics and archives of dozens 
or hundreds of images).  FTP'ing is easy.  Gophering is easier.  See
