|Howdy all!
|I'm in yahoo chat quite a bit and have seen some pics people use there
|that are ascii conversions. I think I've figured out how to space them
|to use up to about six lines. Does anyone have any art thats 6 lines or
|less that I may try in the chat room? Also does anyone else know
|anything about useing ascii pics in the chat rooms. I imagine yahoo chat
|may be specific to itself. Most settings in the chat room is java
|enabled if that makes a difference. Thanks for your help!! I wish I
|could draw but you all are great and I love the pics!!   *<:-)~

'------------------------

As far as I know, Java uses different fonts on different computer systems so
making ascii art will be near impossible unless the chat is set to the
'courier' java font which will always be monospaced eg 'Courier New' on
Win95.
