Yes, I think it looks like one IIRC. It looks even more like a slug,
though. In fact, that's the best ascii slug I've ever seen. :-)

That's a wonderful self-portrait - there's really no need to change
anything. However, I do love rediddling, so here goes:

Just a few small changes, smoothed a few lines and extended the elbow.
Of course, I have no idea which version looks more like you - probably

Hi there folks! It's been a while since I've posted anything so I
figured I'd post some of the things I've been working on and try out
new sig (assuming it works).
Firstly, here's a pic I did of a Pikaia (an extinct animal):

And this is a self portrait I've been working on (it doesn't look that
much like me, but who cares?):

I wasn't even thinking about that. :) Here's basically the same guy, but as a bannana slug, bigger, nastier, and spotted: \/ |\______ \`.".;'.`\ `"""""""+\^"'^`' <---trail of slime--- ` SK __________\/______________________ / |\____ \ | Sarah \`----`\ pikaia @ | | Kearsley `"""""+\ hotmail.com | \__________________________________/
