The BRL idea was the original reason I came to this group, seeking art 
for it, there were some great contributions by some great ppl, and now I 
seem to be stuck! BRL is still vapourware at this stage.

"HARPY" seems to be missing my sig.
There were some nice works in there that I hadn't seen before by other
people.  
There was a link posted some time back to a site that had ascii art
for a lot of dungeon bbs.  You may want to try and dig that up.

It's been suggested a few times but roguelike developers are too anal to
put anything new or interesting in their games.

Well, to each his/her own, but when comes to the latest Nethack, I tip my hat 
to the dev team for their on-going innovation and ability to keep the gameplay 
fresh.
