Colin Douthwaite Ascii Art Collection [HUGE]
Here's what I found when searching for Colins art...mostly diddles
and stuff, but it shows the great humour this man had.
There are more posts from on my site, Wicked Ascii Art, but it's mostly
collections of other peoples art.
His memory will truly live on online.
(Hope you see this Colin, whereever you are...)

Well, the globe didn't look quite round enough on my 80 x 24 monochrome
monitor so I put your horse back into Laura's globe and put some
snow back in there again...

I guess I ought to join in this " My First Ascii Art " game because
someone requested it.
I tend to be a collector and diddler rather than a creative ascii-
artist but I have done a few originals and I think " The Lamprey "
was my first ever original.
Someone was trying to create a new newsgroup named "alt.lampreys"
and opponents said the idea was stupid.
I had to find out what a lamprey actually was because it was being
said that lampreys liked biting cows. Anyway, here is my Very Own
Lamprey of mid-1993 vintage...
