That looks much better on my screen... let`s do a test:
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm|
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii|
Do the two |s in the lines above line up?
If not, it`s time for a font change:
__ __ _
| \/ | ___ _ __ ___ ___ _ __ __ _ ___ ___ __| |
| |\/| |/ _ \| '_ \ / _ \/ __| '_ \ / _` |/ __/ _ \/ _` |
| | | | (_) | | | | (_) \__ \ |_) | (_| | (_| __/ (_| |
|_| |_|\___/|_| |_|\___/|___/ .__/ \__,_|\___\___|\__,_|
/ _| ___ _ |_|| |_ ___
| |_ / _ \| '_ \| __/ __|
| _| (_) | | | | |_\__ \
|_| \___/|_| |_|\__|___/
