Yeah? :-) I actually learned how to do ascii by studying other people's work. :-) 
I still do if I'm utterly stuck on a piece - I'll go to Joan, or Joris, or whoever
and have a look at how they did such an angle, or how they solved the 'fingers 
problem'. :-) That's probably why my stuff often look a bit too much like Joan's. 
;-)

>I wish I could do asciis like that.

Me too - I LOVE Row's stuff, and I've tried to use the letters and numbers the way
he does, but it never looks as good. :) he just has the knack, like Joan and Joris. 
:-) Sucks, huh? :)
