The files are indeed very mixed up and poorly labelled. I doubt that
very many people would bother much with downloading this mess. However,
there are people who might. 

Here is a quote from Ribbon's index page:
 
  "In this page you can get all the arts I have created!!! Also I
   update frequently as I Create more everyday!. I have added all
   the Ascii Arts I have collected. Art is my hobby, .I really enjoy
   doing them. You will find some of the ones colored by all the
   great artists here on my page from the other color channels on
   IRC. I have tried my best to keep them in category!!!  If you
   have any problems or concerns please feel free to contact me.
   I am always in #ascii which is located IRC's Undernet server.
   My nick is Ribbon, and I am the channel manger!!! Enjoy the
   world of art and color....;-)" 

I find it amazing that this Ribbon person has the audacity to claim one
of my favourite B'ger ascii pictures as his/her own!

Ribbon, you most certainly did not create the above drawing. You might
have coloured it, but you did not draw it. You should change it by
putting the proper signature in. You should change all of the drawings
that you stole.
