Wow, what a great list! I think I jumped in a just the right time. Don't stop now though. More, more! I have a confession and a problem. I'm been collecting ASCII art from emails and posts for about two years, keeping it in a file, and even sending some on. But now I realize that I should have been attributing it to the artist. And I've cut away all the writing that goes with each piece...even the little initials. Is there any way I can get it identified? Can I post a few at a time here to see if you recognize it?

Why not? We even might see some new pieces. And if you're really after it, you could search dejanews for the stuff. I've got a lot of credited work in my collection because I did search for the proper initials once but I admit that it's a lot of work if you do it alone. Just post away and we'll see if anyone helps. :) ( Andreas ( ) .___. ,-. __) NC + a:f \|/ //===\\ ,-' o `-!| .'+^+`. //=|_|=\\ ,-'---------`-. .'///|\\\`. //=======\\ | [+] [+] | .-------------. //////|\\\\\\ //|||'"`|||\\ | ___ | < huff, puff > /((|||^..|||))\ |||||.^ ||||| | | | // `--v----------' ((|||(oo)|||) |||||o) ||||| | |' | |..~~~O { ~vv' ASCII Dictionary : | - http://www.stud.uni-hannover.de/~freise >O< Alt.Ascii-Art FAQ : - http://www.stud.uni-hannover.de/~freise/ascii/faq.html
