Okay...I've got the sig I want. NOW I have a new problem. The signature looks 
wonderful in the newsgroup. But when I send it in email, it's utter crap. The 
same signature doesn't work for both formats. What do I do?? :P

Ascii sigs only work in a fixed-font.  Set the font in your email 
program to "Courier" and it should look fine.  You'll probably have to 
tell your friends to do the same, or it will look like crap in their 
email programs as well.

The only thing I can think of is that the font you use in your e-mail
client, is different from the one in your newsgroup client.
