AOL only has the Arial font- (unless you've
updated to 4.0)--  do not use the Arial font for
ASCII art since it is proportional.  To enable the
most viewers and to keep the ASCII art
"universal", use a fixed-width font such as
Courier or FixedSys (probably your default
on notepad).  So yes, make your pic in notepad,
copy and paste it here-- it'll look skewy to
you but to everyone else, it'll look fine.
