Hi Everyone,
I've been lurking on this NG for quite some time, however much though I 
wanted I have never got arround to creating any ascii art of my own.  
Having read all of the FAQ's (Thanks Guys they are great), I set about 
creating my first <GRIN> "Masterpiece" </GRIN>.

So here it is:

I welcome any criticism, and improvements, although I my self am not 
happy with the removable hard disk handle, I can't find a better way of 
doing it at the moment.  

Your criticism is eagerly awaited ...

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

I like it! It looks just like my m8's PC, apart from the removable HDD...
I`m not really sure what one is supposed to look like, since I`ve never seen
one --- so I can`t offer any ideas on it. Certainly no criticism on it --
it's a great first attempt.

my house, I reckon you'd better fill your'n hand, cause I
keep my ray guns tied down.

Here is a very Quick (and Quite Lame) attempt:

      .....     
    #########     Dark Hair
   ###########  
  (#\__   __/#) 
  | (<>)~(<>) |   Glasses
   '   /_\   '  
   | .     . |  
   \  '~~~'  /    Usually a Smile!
    '._____.'   
CA                

It's *MUCH* easier to do square things!!!!!!!

It could be something to with the FAQ which says 'Try drawing anything 
that will stand still'  My Computer furfilled these criteria, and was 
infront of me when I decided to do some ASCII.

All the best,
Chris

Not quite.  Some people are so new that they don't draw the whole
computer, they just draw an icon(i.e. my winamp post).

I did not make no 'puter pix.  Of course, I made askey pix
afore I had a computer.  The first one I made with a computer
was this:

   It used to have a bunch of non-standard characters in it.
But I threw them out of the house.  Some folks probably did
better kerrections of it fer me than I have done here. But
anyways, it ain't no commuter.

Actually, I believe that the dinosaurs did a tremendous amount of
commuting. This is what really caused them to become extinct. They all
died from inhaling too many exhaust fumes in the traffic jams. (How else
does one explain all those pools of oil under the earth's crust. It was
from poorly maintained vehicles sitting for hours in standstill traffic,
dripping oil...)

Are you sure that didn't say 'painting'?  (My cousin was in danger 
of being painted once or twice, last time the decorators were in).

 These are my favourite cat pictures ever;  Mike's stalking cat
 was the inspiration for my one line cat-and-mouse [below].

Yes folks, it's Nika!! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, my cat Nika has been
meticulously drawn on my computer. Now, the experts' many hours of
drawing are paying off for you! Now you too can see the one and only
Nika in this special edition USENET post. Here it is, the moment we've
all been waiting for...

Do you like them? I'll post back when I draw some more. I already made
an animation with Nika, and I'll post that soon. "Nika stalks the mouse"
would make a nice sig pic or sig blank (hint, hint). If you're
wondering, I really do have a cat named Nika.
