thanks a lot!! :))
but there is no "s" there. only "k-NET". :-|

It's for my signature and though I'm satisfied with the "k", the "NE"
is not okay. Even the simple "T" is okay.

Here is my latest attempt. Worked on the "N" and "E" for an hour to
get just this far! :-(

Yep. Tried Figlet but their fonts are so HUGE!

  Maybe try something slightly larger (still 4 lines):

  |""|__     |""\ |""|"""""|""""""|
  |  |  | __ |   `|  |  --.'-.  .-'
  |    < `--'|  |.   |  --'. |  |
  |__|__|    |__| \__|_____| |__|

  Of course, the """ upper lines are not so nice, but having more space
available really helps the N, I think.

HTH,
  Bertram

I second that .. That is the cutest little dragon !

Cuter than my own
 ,---.
'`'_''`
 o( )o
 `0-0'

 ,-v-.
'`'_''`
 o( )o
 `0-0'

Do you have any more renditions of it ?

And may I use it in a upcomming toon (in a few months time with the progress i'm making) ?

      `oo.'
  ,.  `-')
 '^\`-' '
    c-L'-

and a mirror image of the original one ...

 `oo.'
 `-')  ,.
