New ASCII Arts Webring

Since Yahoo! took over the ASCII Art Ring, they've begun using it to promote themselves. Their interface design is ugly, their navigator isn't exclusively ASCII, and there are advertisements. Since decentralization was one of the goals of Web Rings when they originally became popular, I took it upon myself to write software to support a web ring to replace the ASCII Art Ring. If you have a site featuring ASCII art, I encourage you to register and join this new ring. http://artcode.org/ascii/ andy PS The interface design is ASCII-only, and is Lynx compatible.
This is probably a good place to let people know that as I'm graduating, my
ASCII art webpage (http://users.ox.ac.uk/~sjoh0780/asciiart.html) will
probably die in the next couple of months. When I get set up at my new
university I'll put it up again and post to the newsgroup with the new
address.

There is no rule about not listing ripped off ascii in the ring.
