Need 6 line art needed

alt.ascii-art · 24 messages · 22 Jul 1998 - 27 Jul 1998
Greetings everyone,

I'm new to this group but love the art. You guys are great! I'm looking
for small art...specifically 6 lines, no more than 6 lines. I've been to
the ususal top 20 or so sites on a casual romp through Yahoo and Hotbot
searches.

Can anyone suggest a favorite place for 6 line art? I want to start
small and I figure you guys can help if anyone could. Thanks a bunch and
keep up the great work. This is fascinating art and I only hope I can do
some of the art I've seen. Thanks again...

Those have been added to the list:

Could you please be more specific? What exactly would you like to see
that is 6 or fewer lines high? In the meantime, here is a horse.

I suppose we could just write a list of possible subjects and then try
to make the things on the list in exactly six lines... (and why not
complicate things by specifying a second rule: "Only _new_ stuff!")

Here's a possible start of the list:

Animals
=======

cat
dog
cow
horse  (done)
goat
sheep
rabbit
hen
lion
zebra
elephant
snake
eagle


Food
====

pizza
hot dog
carrot
apple
pear
banana
orange
pineapple
pork chop
bottle of [something]


Sports
======

football
tennis
ice hockey
riding
running
swimming


Clothes
=======

hat
shirt
t-shirt
trousers
shorts
skirt
blouse
shoes
gloves


Furniture
=========

chair
table
bed
cupboard
sofa


Misc.
=====

house
church
shop
world map
car
bike
motorcycle
snowmobile
skateboard
paper bag
suitcase
handbag
road
tree
flower
TV
radio
computer



I'll start this off with a repost of my Mumin trolls, but now in six
lines:



           //

That horse was not new, Veronica, so cannot be considered as being done
on this bizarre list.

6 line alarm clock:


   ( ) ( )    |.
    `_^_'    (|||)(|
    / |,\         ,|
   |- ' -|       |.
    \_,_/       (|||)(|
    /___\            ,|

If my alarm had not just rung, I would attempt to make another 6 line
horse, but there it is. I have no more time here.  (Rationing has been
imposed!)



NOTE: I do not pick up my mail from the idirect address that you

to "freent"; its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.

Oops! Mistake! An old horse doesn't count in this challenge. Thank you
for checking and correcting that one.  (I'm a little bit tired right
now  8] )

      ._.-.___.' (`\
     //(        ( `'

To help keep track of how this list develops (and to avoid X number of

with varying degrees of commenting an cropping...) I'm putting it on my
homepage:

This is now the official source for the list (as well as a "score
board"). Please suggest more topics to draw.

Bizarre?  Nah, what is bizarre is that she left off Beavis & Butthead
and Birthday Cakes...the top two of 1993 and the main motivation to
create a moderated newsgroup...alt.ascii-art.

Rowan Crawford aka "Row" absolutely hated Beavis & Butthead requests. *8-)

5 < 6 so this one won't pass. (I'm not saying it's a bad slice of pizza,
just that it isn't exactly six lines high and won't fit into my six line
challenge).

That was the original poster, yes, but I later narrowed it down to exactly 
six lines (to make it more interesting):

: to make the things on the list in exactly six lines... (and why not
: complicate things by specifying a second rule: "Only _new_ stuff!")

(that's also when I renamed the thread to "six line ascii challenge")

I was bored, figured I'd try my own radio

1             .==============.

Ok maybe it'S not quite as good as I'd like... the bulge at the top under
the handle is a CD player. the pluses and pipes to the right of the tape
decks represent a 3-band equalizer.

Oldies 103.7 (KEYN, Wichita KS) rules you. ;-)
