I'm not sure you meant text logo... But that's my vision of your logo:

            ______________________
  ,--.   .`~ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _:
  `-,~| `~ ~______________________;
    |~:`~.`,....,.. ,... '..' ....
    |~~.`  ````.``:',``.: :: :.``.|
    |~:--. ,```|| ||   || || |:  ||

  ,-'~|   :`::.`| ||   |'.|'.|'..,;
  `--'     '''''  ';    '.;'.`....` aCh


Hope you enjoy it!

It may be interesting, but not very obvious. How about this one?

Could you please change the sig-seperator from "space, dash, dash" to "dash,
dash, space"? It enables most newsreaders to cut your sig automatically.

Absolutely agree! This version is most comfortable for reading. ( But some
diddles are still possible )

That was my mistake during editing.

But after your question I've realized that know nothing about newsreaders.
Can you give me an advice about most handy and comfortable newsreader,
please?
( Now I use 'Outlook Express' )
Thanks in advance!

I like MaraZ's version a lot too!

Pity you use OE, by default it removes what it thinks are "excess" spaces.
There may be a workaround, but i know none.

>( Now I use 'Outlook Express' )

I can only give you the advice to dump OE as soon as possible. You might want to
try a program like Free/Forte Agent, FA is very configurable but especially to a
beginner (i don't know how long you're reading the NG's) it can be a bit
confusing. But once you've used it for about a week or two, you'll get
comfortable with it.

Check "All Fonts" and then you just have to scroll down a page to see
them all.

Five seconds!

You are right,I was thinking of another list of fonts when
i said that.I only have 126 figlet fonts,I guess i should 
go on a figlet font binge and get some more.

And *what* am I supposed to do with *that* garbage? I meant like this:

http://www.surfplaza.com/figlet/

I always use Figlet on the web! I don't have the quota to keep software
on my account. Either it's "on the system", on the web or I live without
it.

Mine has 17, but of course that's only a test setup.  The code, which
I wrote to show that accepting arbitrary strings to figletize can be
done safely, is in public domain if anyone wants to use it to set up a
proper figlet server:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CGI::Carp qw/fatalsToBrowser/;
use CGI qw/:all escapeHTML/;

my $figlet = '/home/i/l/iltzu/figlet22/figlet';
my $fonts = '/home/i/l/iltzu/figlet22/fonts';

#
# Read list of available fonts
#
opendir FONTS, $fonts
    or die "Can't open font directory: $!\n";

my %fonts;
@fonts{grep s/\.flf$// => readdir FONTS} = ();

closedir FONTS
    or die "Error closing font directory: $!\n";

#
# Check parameters
#
param(font => 'standard')
    unless exists $fonts{param('font') || ''};
param(width => 80)
    unless (param('width') || 0) > 0;

#
# Generate form
#
print(header(),
      start_html('FIGLet WWW Interface'),
      startform(),
      table(Tr(td('Text:'),
	       td({-colspan => 4},
		  textfield(-name => 'text',
			    -size => 60))),
	    Tr(td('Font:'),
	       td(popup_menu(-name => 'font',
			     -values => [sort keys %fonts])),
	       td('Screen width:'),
	       td(textfield(-name => 'width',
			    -size => 5)),
	       td({-align => 'right'},
		  submit(-value => 'FIGLetize!')))),
      endform());

#
# FIGLetize input
#
if (length (param('text') || '')) {
    my $pid = open FIGLET, "-|";
    die "Can't fork" unless defined $pid;
    exec($figlet,
	 -d => $fonts,
	 -f => scalar param('font'),
	 -w => scalar param('width'),
	 param('text')) unless $pid;
    
    print "<HR>\n<PRE>\n";
    while (<FIGLET>) {
	print escapeHTML($_);
    }
    print "</PRE>\n";
    close FIGLET
	or die "Error running FIGLet: $!\n";
}

print(end_html());

__END__

The test URL is http://www.sci.fi/~iltzu/cgi-bin/figlet.pl

Now that I think about it, there's no reason not to add ascflip.flf to
the list, since I already have it on the server.  Make that 18 fonts.

And *why* do you think I suggested that you make a more "complete" one?

I dont have the services reuired to make a figlet page.THe only
way i could do that is with a GIANT javascript that held all
the fonts in an array....No one would want to dl _that_ page to make
a figlet......maybe one of those who do run figlet services could
update thier font list.......
