Just a small niggle.
It would be prudent for you to place your initials on the left side of
the container. That way people when copying it are less likely to remove
them.

looking out my kitchen window i see a hanging basket of flowers and i sat
and tapped randomly to duplicate its look--i should have tried to include
the nest thats being built--thought i would try that later since im a
novice--lizard's? due to your inference i visited her site--i dont see a
hanging basket with a wire hanger going down the middle--to try to duplicate
someone else is a terrible thought to infer. but i wish to thank a special
friend for encouraging me to try to put a special image of mine in
ascii--sadly mistaken.

Hmmm... It looks like we have a little misunderstanding.  No one was
trying to imply you were copying anything.  Paul was just making a
comment on Veronica's little diddle on your hanging flower basket:
See, this is llizard (two l's):

                           ,^
ejm       ===%^^7^^^^^7^^^^  

Now look here -------------------------------------------._
                                                           `-.
See llizard hiding in the flowers?                            `.
                                                                \
Please don't be discouraged from ascii-art; that's a             |
wonderful hanging flower basket.                                 |
