If anyone would be so kind, I'd like some ankhs.  Obviously, the one in
my .sig is pretty lame.  Any and all ankhs would be quite welcome.

Only one requirement:  It should NOT look like a Christian cross.  


Thanks!

Just my 2 pennies, but it just looks so much nicer when it's cleaned up a 
bit and doesn't have all those seemingly random characters scattered about.

I agree.  I'm the oroginal requester, and this is apparently a GIF conversion
frmo the ankh worn by Death (one of the Endless, "Sandman" comic), and the
first attempt was "dirty" because the ankh in the GIF was slightly tilted to
the left. (I know, it's my screen backdrop right now. :)

I was kinda hoping someone could do a decent one by hand, since all of mine
end up looking too much like *shudder* crosses, and I could have
grabbed the one above myself.  *sigh*

Thanks anyway.
