[REQ] - Miniature Tower in a seal
alt.ascii-art
· 10 messages · 8 Sep 1998 - 3 Oct 1998
I have a picture of a building on my website at:
http://angband.gt.ed.net/~rmboye/tower1.htm
I'm curious if there is somewhere here could create a miniature version
of it, encircled by a border.
Something around the size, or a little larger of this wonderful
medallion I just borrowed from Joan Stark.
_o8888888o_
.o888' ... '888o.
.o88' :::;(;::: '88o.
,88' .::;.) );:::. '88,
,88' :::;`(,' (,;::: '88,
,88' :::;;). (, (';::: '88,
88' :::;( ) ; ' );;:: '88
88 '::;')_,_)_(`;::' 88
88 '::[_____]::' 88
88 \_ _/ 88
88 |#|_ 88
88, __.-'(__ ) ,88
'88, '-. \___ ) ,88'
'88, _.\_)__ ) ,88'
'88o, _ (__ ) ,o88'
'88o, `'-\#/' ,o88'
'888o,_ _,o888'
'8JGS88888' jgs
And hey, while anyone's at it, a plain ASCII version of that building a
bit larger than that in the aforementioned requested 'seal' - just an
ASCII picture of it, smaller than 40 lines long would be very very mmuch
appreciated.
You guys make me so jealious. I can draw somewhat but I wish I could do
ASCII art.
