Re: What do we do when we do ASCII Art?

Who better to decide this than us. Martin why don't you put up a list of the
common ones and we will vote post. We can all vote on the one we like the
best or even vote on the two we like and do this for a week. Then you can
tally it up and we'll just accept the winner. We've done this before on
things and it worked really well. Martin it was your BRAINSTORM question,
what do you say bro?
