Announce: New FTP Site!

   I am starting to set up an FTP site here.  Right now, I have all the 
latest versions of my ASCII Art Archives, and related files.  I hope to 
add some animations and other goodies soon.

   Please try it out and tell me how it goes.

   -> Host: gagme.wwa.com
      Path: pub/Scarecrow

   Also, tell me what else you like available via FTP.

   I trying to do too many things at once, and I gave a wrong host name 
for my new FTP site.  The correct and tested address and path:

   -> Host: ftp.wwa.com
      Path: pub/Scarecrow

   FTPing is easy.  If you have FTP at your site, and you want to FTP over to
my new FTP site, you would type the following at the prompt on many sites:
 
prompt> ftp ftp.wwa.com
 
   Notice that ftp was typed twice.  The first is the command, the second is
a port of the address.
 
   When the connection opens, you will see:

Connected to sashimi.wwa.com.
220 sashimi.wwa.com FTP server (Version wu-2.4(1) Thu Apr 14 16:43:34 CDT 1994)
ready.
Name (ftp.wwa.com:boba):

   Type "anonymous" for the name, and pressed the return key.  Then:

331 Guest login ok, send your complete e-mail address as password.

   For the password, type your email address.  You'll see:

   Now, let's say you want the file called "Funnies", you would type "get 
Funnies" and press the return.  That's it.  The file will be sent to the 
computer you are FTP'ing from, and will be placed in the folder you were 
in when you started this FTP session.

   When you're done 'getting' files, just type "bye" and it will say:   

221 Goodbye.

   You will be back at your prompt.  This should work with most any of 
the sites listed in the ASCII ART FAQ and ASCII Art Resources.

   Have fun.
