Who cares?
Well, I didn't know there were only certain characters that you were all owed to use... as for the HTML, my apologies :) I myself am still learning ascii... if anyone would like to inform me what the difference between "ascii" and "non-ascii" characters is I would be happy to hear from you.

Well i'm sorry, I didn't know there was such a thing as "non-ascii" characters... If someone would like to inform me as to the difference between "ascii" and "non-ascii" characters I would be glad to hear from you. I myself am still learning ascii, and i would be open to hearing any input. AS for the HTML, my apologies.

But the problem with using the non standard characters is that they look different from browser to browser.

Effectively it all boils down to the characters that a standard keyboard (typically US character base) can produce when you press a key, sometimes in conjunction with Shift. More accurate definitions can also be found in the FAQ's. Paul Wilkins

Nope, it's just one of many,many shapes in which char #175 (Alt+175 in MS-DOS) aka Hex-AF exposes itself. hth, mic -- ____ ____ ______ ______ ____ ____ ______ ______ ________ ___ _____ ____ ______ ______ ______ ______ _____________ ____________ ______ ______ ______ ______ _______ __ _____ ____ ______ ______ ______ _____ ______ _______ ____ ______ ______ ________ ______ ______ __ _______ _____ ____ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ _____________ ____________ ______ ______ ______ ______ ___ ________ ____ _____ ______ ______ ___ _____ ______ ______ ______ _____ _______ ______ ______ _____________ _________ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ _____ ______ ______ ____ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______

You will be made pretty unwelcome on this newsgroup if you're going to post your diddles, and slight tweaks of OTHER PEOPLE'S ascii with YOUR name on them. Are you just not bright enough to figure out that what you are doing is really rude, and bound to be found out seeing as the people in this newsgroup have probably seen EVERY ascii pic available on the web? Or are you just plain rude? (and I'm not even going to go into the non-ascii characters, and the HTML in your post, because it's obviuous that since you have no aversion to plagiarism, the common courtesy of reading a newsgroup's FAQ would never occur to you.) -Hayley
