Ascii art is ascii art no matter how a person decides to code it with either plain ascii, html color codes, or mirc color codes. As long as the person decides to send the coded art as a file attachment, and explains the coding language used in the subject line * What Is The Big Deal *. If you don't want to see the coded art then don't open the file attachment. Some of use who use Mirc or use HTML (personal home pages) enjoy seeing color. ================================================================== Remove the ~ (tilde) from my reply address or use this link gat...@pipcom.com Please DO NOT send me junk mail, advertisements, chain letters or spam mail.

This is an alt.ascii-art newsgroup not alt.uuencoded.colourized-mirc-ascii or alt.binaries.ascii-art!!! 2. Whereas I dont mind the occasional post of either, I do object to having the newsgroup flooded by them. <nasty> Especially by incredibly bright individuals that flood us with our own art with the artists signatures snipped!</nasty> (If you recognize your html tags that was an undocumented feature) Keep it at alt.irc and the like! , , / \/ \ (/ //_ \_ .-._ \|| . \ \ '-._ _,:__.-"/---\_ \ ______/___ '. .--------------------'~-'--.)__( , )\ \ `'--.___ _\ / | Shanaka Dias ,' \)|\ `\| /_.-' _\ \ _:,_ Curtin University " || ( .'__ _.' \'-/,`-~` Western Australia |/ '. ___.> /=,| | / .-'/_ ) |email: edi...@alpha1.curtin.edu.au| snd )' ( /(/ |_________________________________| \\ " '==' http://www.ece.curtin.edu.au/~shanaka
