Hello and welcome to my first drawing in this newsgroup! The 3D-Effect is
not THAAAAT great, but it looks okay. So let me know your opinion... BTW:
Damn Outlook! If somebody knows how to switch the fixedsys on (already use
this font for newsgroups, but doesn't show it though), then please tell me!
It's not funny to cut'n'paste the pictures to notepad...

Can I suggest using " instead of ~ since in some fonts it appears mid-character (like a bent -). As for outlook express... you can find a easy-setup registry patch that will set up the appropriate settings for Outlook Express newsgroups for ASCII Art. http://website.lineone.net/~martin.atkins/ada/aaaoepatch.txt there's also a mirror in Lule�, Sweden owned by Veronica Karlsson... http://www.ludd.luth.se/~vk/q/ada/aaaoepatch.txt No German mirror unfortunately ... :o) -Martin |\/| _..__|_o._ /\_|_| o._ _ mart.atkins@-- | |(_|| |_|| | /--\|_|<|| |_> --bigfoot.com
