It's great, apart from the non-ASCII chars (they show up as "!" in my font.)
I have placed arrows that show you which chars i mean. Perhaps you could replace
them with true ASCII chars.

Hi,

I'm new on ASCII-Arts, and what you said was really new for me : Some chars
aren't ASCII's?

Could you post a list of "Real" ASCII-Chars, or a definition of them please.

             What ASCII stands for
 
 American Standard Code Information Interchange.
 
 ASCII is comprised of a set of characters common
 to all keyboard systems, in this that means that
 anyone viewing the posts to alt.ascii-art will
 be able to see what others have posted.
 
 If you have a nonstandard keyboard, please refer to 
 the table at the bottom of this document for a list
 of the ASCII characters, and their numerical 
 assignment.
 
 Fonts used are a different consideration, and to 
 view the text correctly on alt.ascii-art you will
 need to choose one that sets spacing the same for
 each character. Commonly used fonts are Courier New,
 and Fixedsys, among others. If you are having trouble
 setting the news reader that you have to a fixed width
 font, requesting assistance of the group with specifics
 is a good way to get help from someone who has the 
 same software, or who will recommend another software 
 to try.

  !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@
  ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`
  abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~

The definition, of course, is that of the American Standard Code for
Information Interchange.  More specifically, ascii art as it is
understood here is restricted to printable ASCII characters (codes 32
to 126, listed above) and line breaks (encoding varies, usually codes
10 and/or 13).

But if that went over your head, don't worry.  Just use the characters
I've listed above.  Be careful, though.  For example, the character
you used (ISO-8859-1 code 180, acute accent, not ASCII) may be nearly
impossible to tell in some fonts from ' (ASCII code 39, apostrophe or
single quote).


There are also several ASCII characters that can look different in
various fonts.  Well, they all can and do, but for some this is more
marked.  ~, for example, may be placed at the level of either - or ",
and the same goes for ^ and *.  In some fonts ' is vertical, in others
it slopes and is a mirror image of `.  < and > may be as tall as ( and
), or the may more closely resemble =.

Most of those differences don't matter much, but ~ in particular can
be deceptive, because, if your font has it near the top, it's tempting
to use it for overlining.  (ISO-8859-1 has a real overline character,
but ASCII doesn't.)  Similarly, someone with ~ near the middle of the
line might expect -~-~-~-~- to look like barbed wire.

O.K., I removed the non-ASCII chars and the nice thumb %), but I don't
like the finger now... Any diddles?
