This is one of Targon's works...probably from 1987. I HOPE
this doesn't move around.

Drat! It was sooo neat. If you couldn't tell, it's "Daffy Duck" with his feet crossed. Oh well, I wish we had DOS back! Linda
Here's a short version--loses something though. Targon, I wish you were here!

Chris -- The secret to sucess on the job is to work as though you were working for yourself. Your company provides you with the work area,Equipment and other benefits,but basically you know what has to be done and the best way to do it. So it's up to you to run your own show. -Lair Ribeiro
Well, I'm glad someone can appreciate him in his entirity. Targon is one of the best ASCII artists I've ever known. Never met him, but he and Suzie Oviatt were frequent posters on GEnie (now defunct), I think. We use to have weekly contests and they always won if they participated. Won a few myself, but haven't figured out how this stuff works in Windows (HATE it). Again, I wish we had old DOS...so much easier to do ASCII art. I'm playing offline, I'll see what I can whip up. I have a LOT more of Targon and Suzie's work on a floppy disk (the BIG ones) <G>, but I can't access them. My hubby took WP5.1 out of my HD and I can't get to them. Also, I think the disks have been damaged (kinda old). Thanks for the feedback. Linda

How'd you do that? I tried and tried and couldn't do it. FYI, I FINALLY broke into one of my floppys! BUT, I had to use one of Carl's (my hubby's) computers to do it. I think my B: drive is bad, so I'm getting one today. Don't know when I can get Carl to put it in though. Anyway, there IS progress. Look for some wonderful art later this week. Thanks, Linda

You don't understand. I was working with the dinasaurs--WordPerfect 5.1 in DOS. All of the stuff I have on disk is in WP5.1 format and it ran on DOS...that's what I meant. I think my B: drive is dirty...possibly the disks too. They're pretty old. I haven't gotten a new drive yet...if I can even find one. Linda
