An ASCII art thief! Wow, imagine finding one of those here! Why the nerve of the bloody rascule. I wouldn't have dreamed it possible. Someone who actually takes ASCII art from other sources and uses it. My my ... how shocking. Of course, none of the rest of us have ever been guilty of such a horrible offense. Although, if the truth were to be told, and ASCII theft were a crime, most of us would probably be hanging from the business end of a short ASCII rope. > Well, in my search for objects to make a NEW sig with, I came across >this nice looking snake in ScareCrow's (one of 'em) collection (was no name). >Anyway, can anybody reduce this (yet retaining its niceness). Like try and >make it about 10 lines? Please? Wouldn't want me to have to steal your sig, >now would you... heh heh heh... justkidding.... :) Here it is: Now about this snake. I think that before our convicted ASCII fellon is allowed to use it, we should probably take a few weeks to make sure it hasn't appeared in somebody's sig before. He may be trying to pull a fast one here. You can't trust these ASCII art poachers. They're somewhere between a child molester and a politician. If there's any room between those two. > /^\/^\ > _|__| O| >\/ /~ \_/ \ > \____|__________/ \ > \_______ \ > `\ \ \ > | | \ > / / \ > / / \\ > / / \ \ > / / \ \ > / / _----_ \ \ > / / _-~ ~-_ | | > ( ( _-~ _--_ ~-_ _/ | > \ ~-____-~ _-~ ~-_ ~-_-~ / > ~-_ _-~ ~-_ _-~ > ~--______-~ ~-___-~ Hmmm ... a snake ... appropriate for a sig snatcher.
