It seems like though there are the correct number of characters per line some are getting condensed down (e.g. the ***'s). I can't find any option within AOL's (3.0) newsreader to change the font type, maybe someone with AOL knows. But I still wonder why some pictures look fine and other's don't. I write: OK... I don't know for AOL (I hate AOL), but Netscape Navigator and IE5 I would be able to help with. You should be able to chose the default font to view newsgroups in... it is a local thing, not based on how the posting is made... 0ttomatic1 wrote: I liked what you did with Charisma, though it's still not the effect I'm looking for, you gave me a good idea to experiment with (dBBb), I like how this suggests the top half of an oval. I write: Thanks.... it wasn't my idea first... don't know who I stole it off, though. 0ttomatic1 wrote: Thanks for your input, it helps! BTW What is the 1/2 Gifscii Style? ][ncogni']['o I write: Gifscii is a program to convert Gifs to ascii, and gives a distinctive effect. Very full of characters, a bit like what your piccy looks like... personally, I prefer lower density pictures... just a preference, though.
