REQ: Circles of Magic

Greetings and hallucinations to this wonderful list. I just read the
last 680 posts to this mailing list, and the FAQ. I was hoping to find
a specific ascii for my MUD. What I need really is two ascii graphics.
One being of a dragons claw holding an upraised orb <25x72 characters
being the working field> for the main login screen. <which will be
colored in ansi>

The second ascii I need is much larger. It would have the height of a
full screen <uncertain the amount of characters for a standard
screen..however, the width is the same> What is needed for this ascii
is a circle. Yet not just any circle, this circle will represent the
fantasy theme of the MUD itself. The theme is fantasy, so I am at a
loss as to how to transfer that into ascii capabilities. A circle of
magic however is what is called for.

Also, if there are any avid MUD'ers whom dabble with ascii, and you
are looking for a permanant Imm position, then contact me via email
and I would _gladly_ add you to this newest Smaug format MUD.

-On a footnote here: I know how important it is to give credit to the
drawers of the artwork. _But_ I really don't want initials on my
startup screen, or the main ascii login screen either. <there are a
number of ascii graphics that are needed as well, but these two being
the highest on list of priorities> If it is agreeable to the artist
however, I will give full credit, and a reference to their web site
within the game itself. I will also be _certain_ that all players are
made aware of the proper command for viewing this list of ascii
artists. <your name will be placed within a help file that will be
posted upon the main HELP board itself.-

Future projects <near future>:
A large scroll <full screen> outline. Perhaps have the scroll appear
to be torn at edges and folded over on top. Upon the scroll itself
will be ascii drawn maps of the many areas which are currently being
built.

A well editing sword with a thorny rose twined around the blade:
<I recently saw an ascii that gave me this idea, yet the sword itself
needed to be a little larger..a full screen> A player will see this
every time they check to see who the Immortals of the MUD are.

Well, the list is quite extensive. If you are familiar with mud'ing
stop in at  telnet://circlefour.planetmud.com :4000  or send an email.
<am online in evenings and on weekends>

Thankyou for your time, Kyndig
