[][ hi ... looks like the 'Rider' from 'Dragon & Rider' by Tua Xiong

there is a section in the FAQ about how to do things like this
and is generally understood that if you know whose credits belong
on a pic they should remain on it

the cutting above is approx. 25% of the original pic
so 25% of Tua Xiong is at least Tua or TX ?

Have you been going to archeological digs, Andreas? Is that a SLIDE RULE
that you are looking at?

Nice picture, by the way. I particularly like the angle of the head.

Never mind. Veronica just explained to me that the figure is on the
cover of a book not the Tshirt that you are wearing.

NOTE: I do not pick up my mail from the idirect address. If you
are e-mailing and hit the reply button, add an "e" to "freent";
its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.

You mean like this :

            .a88b. 
         .  a88888b: _.._
        \\\ 8888888')    \

         `c\`-\         \.  \

as in 'studying the ancient tile' ?

Indeed. Ascii Tai Chi or something like that. Haven't read

Well, in a way you could. But it's better you don't.

     You must have drawn these in some kind of editor that uses Ariel font or
some other font than Courier New, System, or Terminal. You need to use one of
those in something like Notepad because these pics look messed up in a fixed
width font.
     I think you might have wanted them to look like this? :
