I'm trying to make my website enjoyable for someone with a lynx-only browser, so there are a few small ascii illustrations I'd like to request. These all need to fit on the same 80*24 page, so they should each be fairly small.... a lightbulb for my big idea/brainstorm page camera for my photography area a bookshelf, or open book for my book discussion area an artist's pallate for my art portfolio a key for my public PGP key If anyone's curious, my home page in its current version is at http://logical.windowware.com/joe
I feel kind of funny, replying to my own post. But I did find most of what I was looking for, after reading the FAQ and playing with gopher and FTP. (Not much of this is available via HTTP:, I spose I shouln't be too suprised...) Anyways, I'm still in search of a camera, and I KNOW there are bookshelves out there someplace, I just have to wade through enough closets to find them... I'll post what I find, in case anyone cares. anansi wrote: > > I'm trying to make my website enjoyable for someone with a lynx-only > browser, so there are a few small ascii illustrations I'd like to > request. > > These all need to fit on the same 80*24 page, so they should each be > fairly small.... > > a lightbulb for my big idea/brainstorm page > camera for my photography area > a bookshelf, or open book for my book discussion area > an artist's pallate for my art portfolio > a key for my public PGP key > > If anyone's curious, my home page in its current version is at > http://logical.windowware.com/joe --------------55CE1A4A3760 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; name="re-post.txt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="re-post.txt" /\ / ) (__/ ____ // _--~~~ ~~~-// / () () // ) | _-//-~ | () (_// | ~~---_ \ () () ) ~--__ () __-~ ~//~~~~~ // ____ --- --- --- --- -- _ -- -- |> -- -- |< -- -- |> -- -- |< -- -- |> -- -- ||- -- -- || -- -- || -- |__________| <__________> <__________> \/ ___________________ ___________________ .-/| 78 ~~**~~ \ / ~~**~~ 79 |\-. |||| : |||| |||| Dorothy asked : The Scarecrow |||| |||| the Scarercow : answered "Some |||| |||| "How can you : people without |||| |||| talk if you : brains do an |||| |||| haven't got : awful lot |||| scarecrow. |||| a brain?" : of talking." |||| of course! |||| She looked at : She replied, |||| |||| him puzzled. : "That's true." |||| |||| : |||| |||| -The Wizard Of Oz- : -The Wizard Of Oz- |||| ||||___________________ : ___________________|||| ||/====================\:/====================\|| `---------------------~___~--------------------'' ad8888888888ba dP' `"8b, 8 ,aaa, "Y888a ,aaaa, ,aaa, ,aa, 8 8' `8 "88baadP""""YbaaadP"""YbdP""Yb 8 8 8 """ """ "" 8b 8 8, ,8 ,aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaddddd88P 8 `"""' ,d8"" Yb, ,ad8" Normand Veilleux "Y8888888888P" --------------55CE1A4A3760--
