Hey peoples! I was wondering if anyone could help me out here... people
have been complaining a bit about the size of my sig (See Below), and
I've been trying to shrink it down, unfortuntly I've had no luck.. first
I tried to shrink the ascii but I couldn't... second I tried getting rid
of the ascii but I couldn't come up with a good format... 

Anyone want to help me out? I'd be grateful!

Thanks!

Zen

IMHO your sig is a fair size, I would just ignore the complaints. =)

I had a go at making it smaller anyway though.

Leave the sig as is. If anyone complains, tell 'em to screw off. The 
'4-line' limit is outdated and unecissary. On;y people who really care 
are anal-retentive folks who got nothing better to do than count lines in 
a sig.

There you are - name and address (as required),
a BUAF and a quote - and yet within four lines
and well below 80 columns (45) - "it's McQ"!

Yea, but i've got another problem. I'd have a very nice sig, but it's
38 lines!!! Now, even if the 4 line limit is outdated...
Thanks,
Duccio.

PS: I never did anything on any ascii picture!!!
