 Well, you created the ascii-art, haven't you? No matter where you got
the impression from for doing it it's your art, so there should be no
problems to put them in. Well, this is just MHO, so it might be wrong,
but I don't think so  :)

 Well, the next isn't that wide, but the one after it. I think it would
not wrap for my newsreader [1] doesn't do such bad things *evilgrin*

 Yep, that's kinda big. It's mostly 79 chars wide, and if I quote it,
it's 81 - and many newsreaders wrap at 80 (when displaying or !even!
when posting). But it's a great picture anyway!

 No, you are not - at least you SHOULD not use it if you like your art
to be seen by anyone with any newsreader. It's not a standard-character
and might look different than a 'middle-dot' on other computers (very
often unknown characters appear as squares). You should only use the
characters with a value of 32 (thats space) to 126. The complete chart
is posted _very_ often ;)
