let me know :)
          Thanks.

It's a penguin.  If your computer isn't set up to view this newsgroup in the
correct font, then consult the FAQ to see how to make the neccesary changes to
view it correctly.

Hi folks!

I am also looking for a version of Tux. Someone posted quite a while ago
(Dunno which ascii-art newsgroup) a rather huge, colored ASCII-Tux (Size
was something like 500k or more). Ok, not really text as far as I
remember, but it was drawn in colored asciis...

Maybe someone has a faint reminder of it...

Thanx
  Andy

This reminds me of a poster you can by from http://www.thinkgeek.com
It is a picture of Tux using colored and faded text (the text is the
source code of the Linux kernel) ... I don't think it really counts
as ascii-art but it is rather cool looking. You can find it at
http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/things/340a.html

Hope that helps.

Yippieh, that was the one I was looking for. The other ones are quite
nice though... :-)

came from Sara...
