Yep .. the rest of us ascii-artist seem reluctant to stray from
alt.ascii-art

Alas not ..
I think ascii-art have lost popularity to WWW.
Most old internettechnologies have lost popularity to WWW.
So many new internetusers today don't even know of the existence of Usenet ,
FTP or IRC .. or even real email .. thinking webmail is all there is.

"Yo , so watz yr hotmail ?"
- I don't have a hotmail account .. I have a unix mailaccount.
"Wat !? .. Don't U knoow U must hav a hotmail .. evrybody has 1!"
- Well I don't.
"n00b !!"

I do too .. Bug IMO is the best ascii-artist there is.
Clearly number one on my list of top ascii-artist.
His work would just be better with descriptions.
And if it takes so little effort to make it perfect .. why not do it ?
