On Usenet? hehe Yeah, but there isn't any ascii-art on it. I use it mainly
to capture amusing media files for use in links.  Although I do have a
decent archive of aa-a dating back to mid 2003 (I lost a few years worth in
the dreaded unscheduled purge incident...bastards!), the archives are my
record of art, such as it is, and I don't even know if I could completely
separate what was my work anyway - it just isn't that important to me. 

Most of the posts made the AFart25 thread were completely OT IMHO YMMV. The
ascii-art posted by me in that thread seems likely to be the OPs object of
praise, or maybe they recognized that not all that was posted ever existed
before, in which case I thank him.  The OA was merely an attempt to be
relevant to the post, and sort'a on-topic for the group. This is an
ascii-art newsgroup, no?  The idea of not being allowed to diddle on
ascii-art seems counter to what people have done in this group for a very
long time. Being recognized for it should be optional, but having the
specter of impropriety leveled against the posting of ANY properly
attributed ascii-art, it just seems outrageous.
