I'm really new at this, so I can't give you any good suggestions. The ME looks good, but the MATHIAS is difficult. I can't see the "T". Maybe you could make the top of the "T" a little longer (from side to side)? Good work. -- lmg _ (_/_) _ / _ ,_ _ (_/\_)(_/_/_/_/ \_(_/__) Mathias Erhart wrote: > > Hi folks, > > I tried to put my name "Mathias" into four netiquette-conforming > ASCII-Lines for sigs. > > ,-. ,---. > | .\/ -.� > | |\/| -�. > `-� `---� > short sign "ME" > > ,-. ,-. ,---. ,-.o,-. ,---, > | .\/. \`| |__| |^| \| <. > | |\/| A `| ,--. | | A `> | > `-� `-�`---� `-�-`-�`---� > MATHIAS > > ,-. ,-. ,-. ,-.

I think it's pretty solid, it's the 3rd ASCII ive ever made...
Looks a bit better in notepad than woth the Courier New font. Just check it
yourself. If you like it...grab it.
:)
PS: Is it lame of me to put my name under that?.....just new here..so don't
know all the rules yet.

Thank you! This alternative looks good and IS more solid! > Looks a bit better in notepad than woth the Courier New font. Just check it > yourself. If you like it...grab it. This is something i realized too: My attempts look better with "Courier New" while your attempt looks better in "Terminal"... So I couldn't resist "re-working" your suggestion to rounder shapes which can be seen better in "Courier New" ;) I also "linked" some characters: .-. ,-. ,-.|"""""|,-, ,-----. ,-. ,--. | \ / |/ _ \"| |"/ �-� ,-..-'/ _ \ ( .-� | V | / \ \| |/ ,-, / _||_/ / \ \_\ \ |_|\_/|_|/ \_ _/_/ /_/ |_____/ \____/ > PS: Is it lame of me to put my name under that?.....just new here..so don't > know all the rules yet. I'm relatively new here too ;) but I think the use of short signs is prefered because they can be put easier into artworks.

Thank you Laura, Ingo and "Spawn" for your suggestions! Laura, you are right, the "T" is a problem! In my reply to Spawn's posting you can see, that it's still hard to handle... I like your three line version, Ingo! Veronica Karlsson informed in a recent posting about figlet servers. There I found a nice four-line ascii version of "Mathias" in "bulbhead" style: __ __ __ ____ _ _ ____ __ ___ ( \/ ) /__\ (_ _)( )_( )(_ _) /__\ / __) ) ( /(__)\ )( ) _ ( _)(_ /(__)\ \__ \ (_/\/\_)(__)(__)(__) (_) (_)(____)(__)(__)(___/ -- .-. ,-. ,-.|"""""|,-, ,-----. ,-. ,--. | \ / |/ _ \"| |"/ �-� ,-..-'/ _ \ ( .-� | V | / \ \| |/ ,-, / _||_/ / \ \_\ \ |_|\_/|_|/ \_ _/_/ /_/ |_____/ \____/
