The original request (the same as you can read above anyway) has disappeared from the buffer] ... kyndig [email] [home] 20 Sep. 19:16, from: 207.144.100.115, black Hi, sorry, I had a phone call. But in answer to the earlier statement about me learning to do it. Believe me, in all honesty, I have tried. I read the FAQ, and Ascii for beginners, and went as far as downloaded a .dos ascii graphic builder and spend 6 hours on it. But art is not my forte'. I asked the artist whom made this drawing to invert it and she was more than happy to help. In fact, she is also working on another ascii. :+) But, I don't want to push my luck, so am hoping you guys can set it so these fairies face each other on the same lines, and sorry for the spam that follows. --------------------------------------------------------------------- VK [email] [home] 20 Sep. 19:20, from: 130.240.2.24, red Kyndig >> What kind of computer/OS are you using? --------------------------------------------------------------------- kyndig [email] [home] 20 Sep. 19:24, from: 207.144.100.115, black I am using a Pentium Laptop with windows 95 --------------------------------------------------------------------- kyndig [email] [home] 20 Sep. 19:25, from: 207.144.100.115, black These are the two pics, I have been working on for the past 3 hours, and cannot get them to face each other. *sigh* Any assistance? .--. _, .--; \ /(_ / '. | '-._ .

Find out if there is a way to "cut out blocks" in some text editor in your computer. Learn how, and then do that. (that's why I want to know about what computer/OS you're using...). 2. Cut-and-paste each line. This is the simplest (but not the most efficient) method. 3. Copy the whole bloody thing by hand, one character at a time! (very inconvenient, but perfectly possible!) 4. (I made this one up now, don't know if it will work though) Think up some trick with html tables. <table><tr><td> first pic here </td><td> second pic here </td></tr></table> then load the html document in a browser and cut-and-paste from there... (like I said, I haven't actually tried this one). --------------------------------------------------------------------- VK [email] [home] 20 Sep. 19:27, from: 130.240.2.24, red Kyndig >> I'm not that familiar with that OS I'm afraid... :-/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- VK [email] [home] 20 Sep. 19:28, from: 130.240.2.24, red Kyndig >> Why not try method 2 described above.
