Sorry, I don't know...but I think it is a very old picture probably from the Steven Sullivan collections and in those days he stripped all the artists' names before compiling his regular postings :-( All the Steven Sullivan collections were archived but the picture is unlikely to carry the artists'name even if you find it: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Chris' FTP site Host: ftp.ncsu.edu Path: pub/ncsu/chking/Archive URL: ftp://ftp.ncsu.edu/pub/ncsu/chking/Archive Contains all the Scarecrow's files, all of Steve Sullivan's files, and Gifscii for many systems. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Sullivan's files: SmallASCIIPics: total 1655 -rw------- 1 chking 384406 Jun 13 14:29 SmallAsciiPics.tar.Z -rw------- 1 chking 14608 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics01 -rw------- 1 chking 14918 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics02 -rw------- 1 chking 22316 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics03 -rw------- 1 chking 16276 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics04 -rw------- 1 chking 16479 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics05 -rw------- 1 chking 18280 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics06 -rw------- 1 chking 20224 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics07 -rw------- 1 chking 16343 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics08 -rw------- 1 chking 24197 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics09 -rw------- 1 chking 24200 Mar 14 21:02 SmallAsciiPics10 -rw------- 1 chking 23857 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics11 -rw------- 1 chking 26148 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics12 -rw------- 1 chking 25309 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics13 -rw------- 1 chking 25162 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics14 -rw------- 1 chking 27403 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics15 -rw------- 1 chking 26304 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics16 -rw------- 1 chking 26335 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics17 -rw------- 1 chking 26566 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics18 -rw------- 1 chking 27231 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics19 -rw------- 1 chking 25841 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics20 -rw------- 1 chking 26155 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics21 -rw------- 1 chking 26517 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics22 -rw------- 1 chking 23908 Mar 26 13:01 SmallAsciiPics23 -rw------- 1 chking 26927 Mar 17 18:00 SmallAsciiPics24 -rw------- 1 chking 26819 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics25 -rw------- 1 chking 26872 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics26 -rw------- 1 chking 27089 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics27 -rw------- 1 chking 26286 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics28 -rw------- 1 chking 26990 Mar 26 13:01 SmallAsciiPics29 -rw------- 1 chking 25440 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics30 -rw------- 1 chking 27552 Mar 16 00:58 SmallAsciiPics31 -rw------- 1 chking 26522 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics32 -rw------- 1 chking 27407 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics33 -rw------- 1 chking 25648 Mar 14 21:02 SmallAsciiPics34 -rw------- 1 chking 26392 Mar 16 00:58 SmallAsciiPics35 -rw------- 1 chking 26387 Mar 14 13:51 SmallAsciiPics36 -rw------- 1 chking 26756 Apr 4 16:32 SmallAsciiPics37 -rw------- 1 chking 26195 Apr 4 19:13 SmallAsciiPics38 -rw------- 1 chking 27315 Apr 19 14:26 SmallAsciiPics39 -rw------- 1 chking 28003 Apr 7 15:55 SmallAsciiPics40 -rw------- 1 chking 27039 Apr 4 19:13 SmallAsciiPics41 -rw------- 1 chking 26942 Apr 7 15:55 SmallAsciiPics42 -rw------- 1 chking 27559 Apr 28 18:07 SmallAsciiPics43 -rw------- 1 chking 27104 Apr 27 01:17 SmallAsciiPics44 -rw------- 1 chking 28057 May 2 18:44 SmallAsciiPics45 -rw------- 1 chking 28200 May 10 01:08 SmallAsciiPics46 -rw------- 1 chking 27465 May 12 12:17 SmallAsciiPics47 -rw------- 1 chking 26690 May 18 09:42 SmallAsciiPics48 -rw------- 1 chking 27291 May 18 10:48 SmallAsciiPics49 -rw------- 1 chking 27335 Jun 3 16:03 SmallAsciiPics50 -rw------- 1 chking 26949 Jun 3 16:02 SmallAsciiPics51 -rw------- 1 chking 6327 Jun 1 08:30 index.html ---------------------------------------------------------------- There are a few pictures around which have some similarity but none of them could definitely be said to be from the "unknown artist"... although "SUNDOG", who was also an early contributor, looks the closest candidate perhaps ? ^ / \ ^ _|.|_ ^ _|I| |I .| |.|_ \II||~~| |~~|| / ~\~|~~~~~~~|~/~ \|II I ..|/ /\ |II. | /\ / \ _|III . |_ / \ |-~| /(|I.I I |)\ |~-| _/(I | +-----------+ |. )\_ \~-----/____-~-____\-----~/ |I.III| /(===)\ | .. | /~~~-----_________---~~~\ `##########!\-#####%!!!!!| |\ _/###########!!\~~-_##%!!!\_/| \##############!!!!!/~~-_%!!!!\ ~)#################!!!!!/~~--\_ __ /#####################%%!!!!/ / \,~\-_____##############%%%!!!!\/ /!!!!\ \ \~-_###########%%%!!!!\ /#####!!!!!!!\~-_#######%%%!!!!!!\_ -unknown- /#############!!!\#########%%%!!!!!!\ |> Berton |> | Corson | III |> /-|\ III i> | _|__|__III i ^ |>\______/III i ^^^ | !__!__III/\ ^^^^^ /\\ ////|====IIII === /\\\/////|====IIII === | | ||||::::::IIII === | | |||| IIII === ----------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~| A .:::.:::. /.\.. ...':::::::.:::. ~|.:[""M#:::.... ..::::::::::::::::::::.....
