Well, um, first of all, if your wondering what ad This means, I put it there so that when it
says "Re:" it will appear: "Re:ad This". Pretty crafty eh? Anyways, I once remember seeing a
sig with a scary 'ol dragon blowing smoke and in the smoke it gave all of their contact info. I
want the same deal, only with this trumpet:
_,'
@=====TTT=======::_
(( UUU___c_) )) `.
`------------'
In it I want it to say the same thing this sig says under the qoute.(it doesn't have to be in
the same format or anything...) Got it? I realize it is confusing.......

Without looking really hard, i'd say that this is more like a 'french horn in rain' ;))) However a french horn is a tough task i think, especially in this size... Thanx! Kronome Gergely.

However here's my 6-line version, with a bit more details (but big enough to not fit into any .sig :( ): /"\ __ __ __ ,f h`--...___________________][_][_][_________________.-. | | __...--.-.-------------pq-pq-pq------.`\--------._| `q y'" ( ( ____(_)_|| || ||____ ) ) \./ `\`\.___( =======||_||)||=== )_.' / `9=----------------------------' BTW I'm interested in any asciis of trumpets (or other wind instruments). Could someone plz give me a pointer (or possibly send in some)? cheers, Kronome Gergely
Would a french horn do? I just made this one, it is not very good. If you
look really hard, it sort of almost looks like one, though.

Many thanks to everyone who responded! (Especially to Colin Douthwaite) Wow!... This stuff was much more i hoped for. cheers, Kronome Gergely.
Sarah, When you make your pictures, make sure that everything is between position #3 and #73. The bar below may come in handy. Place all letters of your picture between the markings (Putting letters in positions #3 and #73 is safe) v v WWWW5WWW10WWWW5WWW20WWWW5WWW30WWWW5WWW40WWWW5WWW50WWWW5WWW60WWWW5WWW70W73 ^ ^ Also check that there are no "unused blanks" to the right of the picture. The "unused blanks" are usually not visible. However, you can make the "unused blanks" visible by highlighting your picture from top to bottom (or do a "select all") The highlight color should stop right after the last letter in each line. If it doesn't, delete the "unused blanks" using the delete key on your keyboard. That should help solve at least some of the problems that you are having. ================================================================ [] [] [] /( )\ Visit the Gallery of the 'steins!
