I'm not an ASCII-Art artist but maybe it can help you to search for a ``figlet server'' on Google. There you can try some ASCII fonts. > -Drew Kutler HTH ./otto -- /"\ ASCII ribbon | Registered Linux User #163698 \ / campaign against | http://www.wean.at/ X HTML mail & | http://www.wean.at/ol/ / \ postings | OL889644-NICAT

I would give you what you asked for, but I believe in the "teach a man to
fish..." way of doing things.
From the FAQ:
========================================================================
[8] Can someone do me some kewl lettering?
========================================================================
There is a program called Figlet which does that sort of thing
automatically -- you type in `Jane Smith', and you get back
___ __,
( / ( o _/_ /
/ __, _ _ `. _ _ , / /_
_/_(_/(_/ /_(/_ (___)/ / /_(_(__/ /_
//
(/
in this and a whole lot of other fonts (see Question 9).
The ASCII art text produced by Figlet can be quite stunning,
so try it first before asking for help from the newsgroups.
IF, however, Figlet doesn't produce the kind of results you want,
THEN post to alt.ascii-art or rec.arts.ascii with your request and
ensure that you include:
* that you have already tried Figlet or don't have access to it
otherwise you will probably just get told to use it.
* a description of the kind of lettering you want, along with
any other symbols or logos which you would like incorporated
into it.
========================================================================
[9] Where can I find Figlet ?
========================================================================
The Figlet home page is at:- http://www.figlet.org/
and links to the FTP site:- ftp://ftp.figlet.org/pub/figlet/
where you can download versions of the program or source-code
for many different platforms.
You can run Figlet on the Web by going to one of the following sites
and choosing your text and options on the Web page. Different sites
offer different options (e.g. multiple fonts at once, justification,
and limited line length). Some of these sites also provide an e-mail
Figlet service for people with browsers which don't support forms.

============================================
Use the web interfaces first and see what you think.
