PG> Is there such a thing as proportional ASCII art?

 Well someone from AOL postet some ASCII using proportional fonts, but I
 don't like this. Everyone using proportional fonts can use fixed fonts
 too but many people only have fixed fonts. In addition art using
 proportional fonts depends on which font to use (and which you might not
 have) and which side to view at.

PG> All ascii art I've seen is in a fixed pitch font.

 What I see as the better way.

 Maybe, but what's about all the people who can't use proportional fonts
 and don't have the font you used?
