|I'm tinkering with a couple three line fonts of my own, but I don't want
|to reinvent some of those wheels if someone's already made them.

Here is one I commonly use on C-Net bbs's, since the conference is limited
to 3 lines per entry...

 _  |_   _  _|  _   |~  _  |_  +   |  |  _ _   _   _   _   _   _  _ _|_
(_| |_) (_ (_| (-' ~|~ (_| | | | | |< | | | | | | (_) |_) (_| |  `-, |
                ~       _|      _|                    |     |_   ~~
                  _
|_| \/ \/\/ >< \/ /
               /  ~

There is also a dot font I use quite often:

... ..  ... ..  ... ... ...  . . ...   . . . .   .   . .  . ... ... ...
:.: :.: :   : : :.  :.  : .. :.:  :    : :.' :   :`.': :`.: : : :.: : :
: : :.' :.. :.' :.. :   :..' : : .:. :.: : : :.. :   : :  : :.: :   :::.
... ... ... . . . . .   . . . . . ...
:.: :..  :  : : : : :   : `.' `.'  .'
:`. ..:  :  :.: `.' :.'.: : :  :  :..

The numbers come out very well:
. ... ... . . ... ... ... ... ... ...
: ..:  .: :.: :.. :..  .' :.: :.: : :
: :.. ..:   : ..: :.:  :  :.: ..: :.:

I would also like to make an entire font using the typeface in my sig, but
it is very difficult for some letters.
