Hail! Here's a challenge for you artists out there--I want an ASCII dragon for my .sig file. I'd do it myself, but my skills go barely as far as stick figures, much less anything artistic...Any additional effects on the dragon (breathing fire, holding someone in one of his/her claws, etc) are welcome. Just please email the result to me (you can post it on the group if you wish, but I don't read it often...) Thanks in advance :) The Dark Archon (note the lack of sig)

If you were going to copy that dragon and post it, why didn't you post the whole thing and let the artist have some credit?
