Looking for Ascii Artists

Looking for Ascii Artists

alt.ascii-art · 9 messages · 13 Dec 1997 - 19 Dec 1997
Hi there..  
  I'm looking for some artists to submit some Ascii to me for a mud that I am 
putting up.  I really want a nice looking opening and I don't know how to do 
Ascii.
  What I am looking for is the name of the Mud, which is Oddville, in some 
kind of cool looking way.  The style is up to whoever wants to submit.  
However, I would like the O to have some kind of star or dot in the center of 
it, but that's personal prefernence and not really important.  If any of you 
are interested please submit something to tur...@iswi.net.  Thanks
Julez

You want a FIGlet, I believe.  It's available pretty much anywhere on the
internet; I have a few links to downloadable and online FIGlet programs
under my website at http://members.xoom.com/mozilla/altasciiart.html
It's a very user-unfriendly page, but it should be right near the top.

There are lots of options available with FIGlet... and you should be able to
find what you're looking for.

To get something like this:

____   ____                         .__               
\   \ /   /___________  ____   ____ |__| ____ _____   
 \   Y   // __ \_  __ \/  _ \ /    \|  |/ ___\\__  \  
  \     /\  ___/|  | \(  <_> )   |  \  \  \___ / __ \_
   \___/  \___  >__|   \____/|___|  /__|\___  >____  /
              \/                  \/        \/     \/ 

or this:

__   __                _         
\ \ / /__ _ _ ___ _ _ (_)__ __ _ 
 \ V / -_) '_/ _ \ ' \| / _/ _` |
  \_/\___|_| \___/_||_|_\__\__,_|
                                 
or some other "ascii art font", try one of these:

http://mediacube.datacom.de/cgi-bin/moniteurs/figlet
http://www.surfplaza.com/figlet/
ftp://ftp.nicoh.com/pub/figlet/
http://st-www.cs.uiuc.edu/users/chai/figlet.html
http://www.inf.utfsm.cl/cgi-bin/figlet

They are sites with a program called "Figlet" that "translates"
ordinairy
text to text "painted" as ascii art.

PS-Just trying to be useful for once..

YES!  Don't you just hate how Outlook Express does that to lines when it's
not spaced away from the edge?  ICK!
