Hi all,

This is a logo I recently did for my Web site. I wanted to have an 
ASCII-only logo for those (like me) who do their browsing with Lynx or 
another text-only browser.

I based the lettering on a Figlet and then added the background, shine 
effect and washing machines (that's what they are :) It turned out pretty 
well but any improvements would be very welcome. (Resizing is OK.)

It would look better without that hex-type encoding on some characters, and
the extended characters that they decode into.

I *think* that's what it should look like. As for improvements, I think it's
fine as it is.
