When it does come back up, she has some good references and links on it. I've got some of the FAQ's cached, if you want me to zip them up and email them to you. To peruse other artists' work, go to www.google.com and search for "ascii art", or go to the ascii art webrings at http://r.webring.com/webring?ring=ascii&list or http://artcode.org/ascii/list.php . As for an editor, check out Markus Gebhart's www.jave.de for the -best- ascii art tool around! He also has references to Figlet fonts (at http://ianchai.50megs.com/figlet.html ), which are used to automatically transform typed letters to ascii art letters (useful for banners, lettering, etc.). Finally, when you find something that catches your fancy and ascii-fy it, post it here for the rest of us to enjoy! Good luck and have fun! -Phydeaux ObAscii: .--. _ ,---. ___ \# `----------"---=<_)_)_>-. `,_/________.-----,_____,.-` dew o' `-===' `o
