My first??? Yuck! Most met their demise at the hands of my delete button...
I believe that this fish and sig were my first...

the first big one I ever did was a dragon which I've since rediddled and deleted
the original. The original is on the alt.dragons ascii art webpage. That was
my first ever "publication" or reposting of my artwork. It took me over a week
to make. To put that into perspective, most of the ones I made now take about
20 minutes. (longer for the larger ones- the new cock-a-too took an hour)
And now I'm "hooked" :)

What a timely post this was! My sixth grade, twice-a-week computer class is learning about ASCII Art. They have word processing in another class. Mine is enrichment. It was immediately obvious how connected ASCII Art is to math. The math-challenged students had a much harder time copying even the simplest character. They also have the most to gain. I am using a LOT from this newsgroup...all with appropriate acknowledgments. After 2 lessons copying simple characters I gleaned from here and web pages mentioned in your posts, we went on to creating signature files. Again, a lot of neat ones from here were used as examples. Since you asked, I would like to post a few of the creations here when they are finished. I am sure they will be thrilled with any comments you may have for them. You folks have a fan club! They even know some of you by name. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :: Ms. Laura Bashlor :: :: Shumate Middle School :: :: Gibraltar, Michigan :: :: http://www.gatecom.com/~lauralou :: :: :: :: "Let those of you who say it can't be done :: :: get out of the way of those of us who are doing it." :: ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: > I would be interested in seeing other peoples first ascii drawings. > So how about it Joan, Morfina, llizard, Erik, Colin and all other > regular posters to <aa-a>.

At first ascii art was something that I used to describe things in old
lab reports and to make my email a little bit more interesting... The
result of it is that all of those early tries are long since gone. This
cat is probably
the oldest picture that I have kept:

Many of my early works have never been posted, they have met someone
called 'delete' and unfortunately, they didn't survive. But here's one
of my earlyworks, and I think it's the first one I posted:

`./ Now there's a man who knows where his towel is!
I guess I ought to join in this " My First Ascii Art " game because
someone requested it.
I tend to be a collector and diddler rather than a creative ascii-
artist but I have done a few originals and I think " The Lamprey "
was my first ever original.
Someone was trying to create a new newsgroup named "alt.lampreys"
and opponents said the idea was stupid.
I had to find out what a lamprey actually was because it was being
said that lampreys liked biting cows. Anyway, here is my Very Own
Lamprey of mid-1993 vintage...
