apple logo

hey, i was just thinkin about a new sign for my personal email-account i use for school and freelance work ( though not this one ). since i work on mac i wanted it to show the apple logo ( the apple =). i came up with the following:

    ,*�
 ,:* *:,
:    <� 
 '.,,,:�

but i'm not really satisfied with it. i am no ascii-char-pusher or whatever experienced in this just gave it a try. maybe some of you pro's might help me out hence i want to have a smooth apple with a biten-out place on the right side.

thanks so far...

it is not much better than before, so where are the "circlemaster"s?
But anyway I recall the apple logo is filled...

actually, i though what is use are ascii chars. i use a usenet client for the mac but i can't select the char-sheme so i assume it is ascii. 

but as you say it isn't i'm quite helpless. what other (free) client ( except MaxNews ) for the usenet running under macos9 can you suggest?

I suggest Linux for Mac... anyway it is not the wrong char-sheme but this one � 
does not belong to the ascii characters. they are ascii(32) to ascii(126) I 
think.

The infinity signs are not standard ASCII characters, my newsreader won't
even let me post them.

Here is my attempt:

          _,
        (@'
   .aa. .aa.
 ,@@@@@@@@@@@'
 d@@@@@@@@@P
 #@@@@@@@@@b
 ?@@@@@@@@@@@b
  `@@@@@@@@@@'
    `@@'`@@'

hmm... not entirely happy with it.

Not recommended since it's a control character (DEL). ASCII control
characters are 0-31 and 127.
