REQ: Hippocampus or Hippo

REQ: Hippocampus or Hippo

Hi!
I was just wondering if anyone out there had a decent picture of a hippocampus
and/or a hippopotamus. The hippocampus would be preferable. This is for the
welcome screen of a moo I run. My own (feeble) attempt is below:

                                       .-/|_.
                                     ./ o  \;`\
                                    <_,--,  ; ;`.
   _______________________________      /'   ; ;|
  |                              _|-._/'     ;_/\
  |                            <~x-^--._        `\                  
  | banner would go in here     |_>     '\    ,;;~\                
  |  somewhere                    |       `-;~;~ ;~`-._         
  |                               |        `\._~; ~;~`;`~;_   
  |                               |           '`-;._.;_; _.;
  |_______________________________|         .__      `..  ;'
                                           :' _``;----'.-'
                                            `' `:.,,;.~`,
                                                     `;'`\
                                                  apw `--'

I think the aspect ratio is somewhat out (my monitor had the wrong ratio set
at the time), and I'm not exactly happy with it (the picture that is - the
monitor works fine :). Something of comparable size would be nice if at all
possible. (btw, for those of you who don't know, a hippocampus, apart from
being a part of the brain, is like a "mer-horse" if you will - a horse with a
fish's tail).

Could you also please email me as I haven't been actively reading this group
for some time.

Thanks,

Andrew.
