I don't grok the question. > Can someone come up with a great work that is bettter viewed in a > certain fixed font, rather than another? Most works are like that. Especially any that are hight detail works where using one fixed font will cause it to be top/bottom squished as there is a lot of variablity in the hight of different fonts. I have only done a few ascii works this year and not many last year but I expect that sometime next year I will be without TV and will be doing a lot more ascii work between illustrating, learning guitar and brewing. -- =()==()==()==()==()- http://fauxascii.com \ \ \ \ \ \ ASCII artist :F_P:-O- -O- -O- -O- -O- -O- -O- Get your ASCII Art T-Shirt: http://www.keystroketshirts.com/ascii/dream-in-ascii-fullView.php
