After reading the tutorial, feel free to drop
by my site and see the info I have put together
on ASCII art and how to create it.
http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/7373/howto.htm

If you have MSIE4.0, you can try the drag
feature that I have created in an experience
in replicating an ASCII art picture.

I also link to several tutorials -- including Hayley's
fine one!

Welcome to the world of ASCII Art!

There are many varied resources about ascii art at the ASCII Documents
Archive, including two or three different tutorials:

http://website.lineone.net/~martin.atkins/ada/
http://voices.vossnet.co.uk/a/atkins/ada/
Other mirrors are available - but since you live in the UK these should suit
you fine! :o)
