Well I think the biggest one (and I'm not going to embarrass myself by admitting I know his name) is about 5 feet 4 or so , and they decrease in size by about half a foot each, maybe less. :-) That's how it looks to me, when they stand next to the rabbits anyway. :-) -hayley

These are great! How do you do that.. :-) Look and type. :) Though doing lala was bloody difficult coz she has that squiggly antenna thing. :) I "see" pictures in ascii all the time these days, so it seems to be getting easier - just keep churning out ascii and you'll get to "know" the characters really well. :-) Anyway, I have tried and tried and tried and still not come up with a little tubby as good as yours, so I dunno who's the 'master'! :-) Only 6 lines!!!! I had a job keeping mine to 15 or so! :-) > > +===============+============================+ > | _ | Time for Tubby Bye Bye! | > | (o) | | > | _H_ | Fidonet: 2:283/548.67 | > | :`:'O_O`:': | 2:2802/126.11 | > | `: ._, :' | 2:263/500.21 | > | `---' IjD | 1:109/921.68 | > +===============+============================+ -Hayley
