Took me ages, this!  Best seen in OCR A Extended size 10 (small) or Terminal
size 6 (yes, as small as six).. I've tried to look at it in others... but
its too long-faced or squat-faced!!  Though in Terminal, some characters get
changed... so OCR A Extended is your best bet...

If anyone wants to see the original - it's on me website:
www.saraw.clara.net/pass.jpg

Please, PLEASE tell me how to improve it or whatever!

Thats what it looks like on my newsreader. :-(

> Please, PLEASE tell me how to improve it or whatever!

Take out the non ascii characters. Have a look at the FAQ if you're
not sure which characters should be used in ascii-art. Generally, if
you have to press Alt + a key to get the character you shouldn't use
it, as it will not look the same on different computers. Only ascii
codes 32-126 should be used for ascii-art.

I've replaced the extended characters with ascii characters, hope
it's not too different from how you intended.

Sara uses a swedish keyboard, so it could be a *little* difficult for her to
tell.  However, she has amazed me in how quickly she has learnt to draw
ascii-art.. it was only a month or two ago i introduced her to it <g>

Keep up the good work Sara!

use are in this table:
