Because ASCII art and FIGlet are created for  fixed-width fonts.  period.
If you are looking for something to be used internally (on AOL)--
then you'll need to look for it on AOL, not on the internet.
The text-based art that you'll find on the internet is not
proportional.  In order to assure an image that can be seen universally,
the fixed-pitch fonts are used.

Does that answer your question?
