I had downloaded as ascii-art which was a christmas greeting in many different
cultures shaped like a chrstmas tree. I am looking for similar ASCII art
with New Years wish in different language/culture.

Thanks in advance.

I think that would be a great project for you to undertake. First, have
people in as many languages as possible mail you the sentence "happy new
year" translated to their own language. Then, sort them by size.
Finally, post the fruit of you own labour here, sit back, take compliments
and feel proud of yourself for making something you wanted.

I disagree, everyone has the right to my opinion. :-)

I am willing to do it, if users from different cultures will e-mail me Happy
New Year in their language. Please do it A.S.A.P so that I can have it ready
before Jan 31, 1999.

 I am sorry to say that I only received 5 e-mails so far with Happy New
 Year in different languages and 1 reminder that I should look at FAQ and
 ascii-art web sight (which I did, before posting to this news group). 
 
 They are as follows:

"Buon anno nuovo" or "Buon anno nuovo"  (Italian, sent by Emiliano )
"Prospero Ano Nuevo" (Spanish sent, by Jonathon R. Oglesbee)
"Onnellista uutta vuotta" (Finnish, sent by Jan-Erik Finnberg)
"Godt Nytï¿½r" (Danish, "Christian 'CeeJay' Jensen")
"Selamat Tahun Baru" (Indonesian or Malaysian, sent by Ronny Haryanto)
"Sal Mu Barak"  (Indian - Gujarati sent by Me)


Thanks for people who replied.

Yeah, but that's not ASCII, is it?  Wouldn't you have to write:

"God jul och gott nytt aar!"

But that wouldn't be Swedish... (Somebody hearing that would probably
think you got some champaigne in your throat and making a mental note to
not shout and drink at the same time)    :-D

I guess one just have to make some sort of judgment of when to break
such "rules". E.g. if your name is "ï¿½sa" then it doesn't really make
sense to write it as "Asa" (that sounds like a suitable name for a
vulture!).

It doesn't mean 'Happy New Year', but 'Merry Christmas'.
And Your first version is not correct.

Prudence's version was good.

With polish characters it would be:
'Szcz�liwego Nowego Roku' (ISO-8859-2)
