Hey all

I went to one of those figlet servers so I could get my name in ascii... I
tried pasting it into my sig box (I use Microsoft Outlook Express) and it
was broken up into lines... it kinda looked like that down there. Does
anyone know how I can fix this problem???

  o
  8
  8  .oPYo.  oPYo.  .oPYo.  ooYoYo.  o    o
  8  8oooo8  8  `'  8oooo8  8' 8  8  8    8
  8  8.      8      8.      8  8  8  8    8
oP'  `Yooo'  8      `Yooo'  8  8  8  `YooP8
...: :.....: ..:::: :.....: ..:..:.. :....8
:::: ::::::: :::::: ::::::: :::::::: ::ooP'.
:::: ::::::: :::::: ::::::: :::::::: ::...::
or:
   '||'

    || .|...||  ||' '' .|...||  || || || '|.  |
    || ||       ||     ||       || || ||  '|.|
|| .|'  '|...' .||.     '|...' .|| || ||.  '|
 '''                                    .. |
                                         ''
here us another:
    JJJ
    JJJ    eee   rr rr     eee   mm mm mmmm   yy   yy
    JJJ  ee   e  rrr  r  ee   e  mmm  mm  mm  yy   yy

                                               yyyyy

I have tried to do exactly what ur talking about and it doesn't work. You
have to create the name in figlet and then u have to save the file as a txt
doc...open the file (in notepad works), then u can cut and paste to where
ever you want it.

The Windows version of FIGlet is easier, you just type in what you want, click
on COPY and then click on PASTE in any other text editor.

pasting, or you're using Outlook Express. ;-)
