My ascii pictures :-)

Yeap, I've been training myself to do some ascii-pictures. You can found 'em
from http://www.saunalahti.fi/joyl/askee.htm

I really like to receive some feedback from all of you, "ascii-geek's" ;-)
Expecially I like my very new one, Rei. Please send some feedbacks.

Most of your pictures are very large and require scrolling to see the
whole thing. I thought that it was smart that you made the fontsize
smaller for the penguin. Why don't you do that for the others too? I did
that to look at Rei just so I could find out what it was a picture of.

You should also be aware that the nonstandard characters you used in
some of your art work will not look the same to everyone.

You used the character "�" in Rei. It is not standard. In Topaz, it
looks like "!".  I know that there are several ASCII-art types out there
in cyberspace who like to use Topaz as their default fixed-width font.
So if you care about them, you should only use the standard characters.
Here are the characters that will look the same across platforms.

Jeah, that didn't came up in my mind when I was making 'em. But I think I'm
gonna make that "smalling" in some day around. I also have a lot of other
things to do, so it may be, that I don't have time so soon.

Well, I have few years experience about making computer ansi's in BBS's. And
there was almost natural that someone used "�" char in her asciis. When
Windows & internet grew up, everybody didn't liked it. There are many
reasons, but one is that Windows does not support all "traditional"
characters that (we) used to use. One big disappoinment was, that in Windows
you can't make all wonderfully ansi's :) (well, there are few fonts that
supports ansi's, but I think that atleast MS Sans Serif or Arial should
support 'em too)

That's one thing... but Windows is pretty good for making large ascii's. As
you see. I enjoyed that a lot, so "few" asciis grew'd up very(?) large ones
:) But I think that when The Big (TM) monitors come to our life, that isn't
problem anymore.

PS. Thanks for all mail you sent :) I appreciate them.
