The first thing I would do would be to pump those tires...

I think your car definitely looks like a car. But the tires are flat.
Also the door handle on the back door seemed like it was on the wrong
side and the hood looks a bit odd. Here's my alteration:


                                                        o
                     _________________________          |
                   /           ||             |\        |
                 / _           ||             |  \      |
     __________/__/____________||_____________|____\____|___
   /           |             - ||           - |              \
  |            |               ||             |               |_

I had a car from 1948 (pegeot 403) with door handles placed
just like that. Great car.

I did some more changes, like it?

That car should have its engine checked for emissions. That much
smoke can't be good for the enviornment.

I like the tire tracks, but I think the car needs a bit of work.

     Not much of an improvement, but the headlight beams now overlap 
"realistically"  (is that a dirty word in this NG?) and I'm trying to 
get the top of the roof lined up correctly.
     Sheesh, I only started taking this group to try to get some 
hints on an AN ASCII art plate tectonics diagram I need to draw for a 
sf mailing list. Is there a FAQ posted any time regularly with things 
like snippets for drawing inclined lines and differing sizes of 
circles?

Actually, there's three ways to do this, use a program, or
experiment, or steal.

Please dont steal, it takes away all reason for the ones that actually make their own to Show them
off in a forum such as this. Plus, well, its wrong, isnt it.

Oh, but it's okay to steal, as long as you keep/put the initials in the pic.

Well... Ermmm... Sort of.
But what if you keep a pic for, oh say, 5 months and then decide to post it or
use it for something else (still keeping the inits), you can't really call that
quoting because quoting is done with texts.
