I managed once, with a Mickey Laura, I think you will have more luck with socalled "solid style" than "line style" ascii art. Solid style ascii art is analogous to brush painting, filling in areas. Line style ascii art is analogous to pencil drawing, tracing outlines. Allen Mullen has done great solid style ascii art, search the web for his site. <grin> Here is someone who understands that ascii art as an artform is independent from medium. The ascii art here will live in a cross-stitch medium! <very big grin> ========================================================= [] .oo Visit the Gallery of the 'steins!
