Hey folks. Below is a picture I found of a volleyball on the net. Only
problem is its too big for what I wanted to do with it. I was wondering
if someone could shrink it, maybe half the size or so and email it back
to me. Thanks in advance,

Next I'll see what converting it into a bitmap, then shrinking it, and
reconverting it into ascii will do to it.

Animation! Hm, not a bad idea, actually--posting an animation of n frames as n posts, with each next frame following up the previous one. I take it most newsreaders display posts in a tree structure these days, don't they? I'm merely asking because I'm enough of a veteran (=fossil) to still remember "nn." I'll have to try the above idea with a simple animation as soon as am finished with what I'm avoiding working on right now. -- ___ __ __ "Muscles of All Limbs, Unite! / _ / _( ) You Have Nothing to Lose But Your Sinews."
