Make one yourself. Have a look at some of the sites with ascii art to
get an idea of how to do it. Then open Notepad and give it a try. A
simple sig is just a border with your email address and etc inside it.
If you give us some idea of what you like someone might work on a sig
for you.

'---------------------------

The usual way to make a sig for alt.ascii-art is to use FIGlet [1] to make a
banner of your name, then draw a pic of something and put them togther in a
text editor. [2]
If you want to use it elsewhere, make sure the pic/text are less than 4
lines long. (It's USENETiquette)

Kind Regards,
-Martin
