I think that the ='s are too harsh as they aren't balanced out at the bottom so I amde this:

%=====================================%   Dave Jarvis
%             WELCOME TO              %   jar...@software.mitel.com
%   |\/| \ /   |  | /~\ |~) |   |~\   %  "Rock and Roll ...
%   |  |  |    \/\/ \_/ |~\ |__ |_/   %   Ain't Noise Pollution."

Then I wondered what would happen if I put a slant in it and I came up with this:

%-------------------------------------%   Dave Jarvis
%             WELCOME TO              %   jar...@software.mitel.com
%   /| /| |/   |   / /~| /~) /   /~|  %  "Rock and Roll ...
%  / |/ | /    |/|/ |_/ /~| /__ /_/   %   Ain't Noise Pollution."

5-liners:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%   Dave Jarvis
%             WELCOME TO              %   jar...@software.mitel.com
%   /| /| |/   |   / /~| /~) /   /~|  %  
%  / |/ | /    |/|/ |_/ /~| /__ /_/   %  "Rock and Roll ...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%   Ain't Noise Pollution."
