I realize this is not exactly .sig size, but It's the only one I have.
Not my work -- artist unknown, possibly GIF-to-ASCII.

Well, I think I've seen something similar somewhere before, kinda like:
 __
/(o\
\o)/

A sort of yin-yang/stop sign kind of thing...  And yes, I realize this is a
hexagon, and that stop signs are octagons, but it looks a bit like one, okay?
Or an even smaller one:

(%)

But I'm not sure if it comes across as a yin-yang...

Hi,
   You guys do great work here, keep it up!
  Would someone be kind enough to draw me a yin-yang symbol, not to big, it's 
for my sig.

Much appreciated,
Dung

It is easy to imagine the seventh and eighth edges on the
sides, and that is what does it.

	(%)

                      _
How about like this: (%)
                      ~

(In some fonts the tilde will look good there, in others
it won't.)
