Found him by netsearch :) Its the use of letters and not really caring about
the bits of the letter that you're not using right? V cool stuff.

I tried going over the pic seeing if there were any places to put in letters
like 'Y' and other joining letters - it doesn't really work :( They connect
the right bits, which is good, but they give the join an angle that its not
supposed to have - better to put a '+' in or something and leave it to the
imagination :)

Anyway, I found a couple of annoying flaws from when I was doing all the 
frantic filling in of '8's - and being a perfectionist and all :)

Well - its spot the difference time...hope this isn't breach of netiquette
posting a near identical (but this time perfect *cross fingers*) pic?
