ASCII art is text so you can copy/paste. The biggest problem that people seem to have is using the correct font. A simple test... if the following two lines are the same length, then you are using a good font.. if not- try another: iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww -joan -- , .--'|} / /}} .=\.--'`\} //` '---./` joan stark || /| spu...@juno.com \\| | |\_\\/ ASCII ART GALLERY: \__/\\ http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/7373/ \\ jgs \|
