Looks nice! Over here in the Netherlands stamps have these perforated
edges (hmm.. why is my English so bad all of a sudden), so here's my
tweak, although I'm sure somebody can do better than me:

'\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/`
Now if it was a sheet of stamps, I could use o's and 8's:
8 8 8
8 30C SINGAPORE 8 30C SINGAPORE 8
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
8 8 8
8 _ _ /\-, 8 _ _ /\-, 8
8 ./_)_ \` - / 8 ./_)_ \` - / 8
8 \,)_) ( c"\ 8 \,)_) ( c"\ 8
8 /_) \ .`-' 8 /_) \ .`-' 8
8 '-\ / 8 '-\ / 8
8 <_ 8 <_ 8
8 8 8
8 30C SINGAPORE 8 30C SINGAPORE 8
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
8 8 8
8 _ _ /\-, 8 _ _ /\-, 8
Certainly needs improvement..
And furthermore I opine that ASCII art should finally receive its
place in a series of stamps! After all, it *is* an art in its own
right. If Elvis can have a stamp, why not aaa? So.. which country
will be the first..? So much material to choose from...
