[pic] numeral 2: novice

Hi. This is the first picture I've ever made, and I'd like some feedback:
how it can be improved, what I did wrong, what if anything I did right,
etc. Thanks. In case you can't tell, by the way, it's supposed to be a
numeral 2. And, yes, I nkow it's lopsided, but I couldn't figure out how
to remedy that. It was made in Notepad (that comes with Win95).

  .88.    
d8'  '8b  
`      8b 
       8P 
     .8P  
    .8P   
   .8P    
   88MSH98

But there is something exciting about coming up with one's own stuff.
Here are my suggestions for evening out your 2, Michael:

  .88.
d8'  '8b
`      8b
       8P
     .8P
    .8P
   .8P
 .8P
.8P88MSH98

  .88.
d8'  '8b
`      8b
       8P
     .8P
    .8P
   .8P
 .8P
.8P
.8P
.8P88MSH98
