Hello, does anyone know of a CGI script that will let users fill out a form
choosing
their ansii art picture and the text that goes in it, and then send it by
email?
I don't know if it exists, or even if it does will you not mind sharing it.
I think
it's a great idea, so much so that I wouldn't be surprised if someone else
has
already created a script like it

The end input would be something like this:


                   |^^^^^^|
                   |      |
                   |      |
                   | (o)(o)     ________________________
                   @      _) __/                        |
                    | ,___| /__   USERS OWN CHOICE OF   |
                    |   /      \      TEXT HERE         |
                    /___\       \_______________________|
                   /     \

In the form they would choose the picture and then the text that should be
inserted.  Then it would be emailed to
whoever they like.

Thanks in advance,

Localizador.

That's an interesting idea... like those webcard things which send a note
saying 'Collect your card here' but with an ASCII Pic enclosed in the email,
instead of a URL.

In fact, if I get time next week (no school next week) I might have a bash
at making one, and stick it up somewhere. Maybe :o)

Kind Regards,
-Martin
