If you do please post it here or e-mail it to me > > >thanx >Jim Lloyd >tim...@wwnet.com ID4 (I never understood how that stands for Independence Day) had three types of space ships: the mother ship (1/4 the mass of the moon), the saucer ships (15 miles in diameter), and the individual fighter ships (the ones which the saucer ships launched against Will Smith & co.) My suggestion for making the saucer ships is to take an ASCII version of Star Trek's Enterprise (TOS or TNG), then delete every part of it except for the saucer section, and maybe add a fin to the end. I don't know whether that would be plagiarism, but if you could add an ASCII White House, put the Saucer Ship above it, and blast the white house to pieces, that would be an interesting creation. It's a fantastic movie. -DAN Wolfe ^^^

I wonder what it'd be called if they did a sequel.
ID42? ID4 2? ID4 TWO?
Hmmmm.

ID4 2? ID4 TWO? > >Hmmmm. > Sometimes they don't include a "2" in the sequel. For example, in the previews before Independence Day, they advertised a sequel to The Crow called The Crow: City of Angels. I was thinking that maybe the ID4 sequel would be about them picking up the pieces after the invasion; it could be called ID4: Reconstruction Era. Another thing that puzzles me is what they'll think to call the next Batman movie. Since people will get mad if I don't say something about ASCII art in this message, here you go: __...-------------...__ =============================== `---...__~~~__...---' / \ |'| |'| < ' > __`\_`___`-------,___/_,_/_ [\ -( ~ ( [\[ [`]/) ), - , /] [ \ ~ ` `[([ ],])], ) / ~)-] [ \-( \ `([ [`[ ])] , -)`/)], [__-_\_(__[_[(]_]_]__)_/_-__] _____ ___ _ _ [----_[ [---\ /-['-[ -Dan [-[ [-[\-[ [----[ Wolfe _[-[_ [-[/-[ [-[ [-----[ [-_-/ [-[ Basically, I have insignificantly small experience with ASCII art; this can be told from the ID4 font, the white house, and the explosion. The energy beam looks fine to me. The ship is actually a slightly modified version of the saucer section of the Enterprise D, stolen from some ASCII art collection at Scarecrow's. That was my original suggestion as to how to do the ship: use the Enterprise saucer. That is also why I signed it closer to the stuff I made from scratch rather than the stolen saucer. Well? Opinions, anyone? -DAN Wolfe ^^^ scw...@ix.netcom.com
