     With BBSs you can display high ASCII characters (like those able to be
produced in TheDraw or ACiDVIEW), some of those characters are blocks (the same
kind of blocks that can be used in ANSI pics).
     But just using blocks, 14x70 is very restricting, and anything you do will
look very elongated, unless the half blocks were assumed by the original
poster. The blocks take up an entire space for where each letter would be.
Imagine these H's all touching and making one continuous ladder.

     That's another possible suggestion?
