Heh, I play a game called Paintball NET a lot, and for chat and stuff it uses Arial. So, as you know, ascii is hard in Arial. But the people make it anyways (with aliases) and they get severely mauled because of the spacing stuff. There's only one half good one, and that's a stupid truck that is edited to have stuff like: TLS COMING THROUGH! PAINT TRUCK! HONK HONK! and it's terrible. It has a lot of little details and it looks funny, actually. =) Martin Atkins wrote: > > .----- On 9 Apr 1999 00:08:55 GMT, Lester5374 posted: > | Hi everyone, > | > | I've just been getting into the YAHOO! clubs, they are pretty cool, > |http://clubs.yahoo.com/ what would you think of a club for ASCII?
