   While anybody can email me for files, there are a couple of things 
they can do to see sigs even sooner than waiting for me to mail some back 
to them.

   One is to check out the sigs I have been (and will be) posting to 
r.a.a, from the past SAAAs.  Also, you can FTP the big Best of the 
Scarecrow's Sig Gallery from Jorn's or Chris' FTP sites.

   And remember, a sig doesn't have to be fancy.  As it says in the FAQ, 
"You might simply 'Figletize' your name, pop in your addy and a pic, and
presto, instant sig:"
 
       |         |  'Guitar John' ||      ___| johnsmith@foo.bar.edu |
       |         |                ||     /                  _)  |    |
       |   _ \   __ \   __ \     \||/     __  \   __ `__ \   |  __|  __ \
   \   |  (   |  |   |  |   |    /()\          |  |   |   |  |  |    |   |
   ___/   ___/  _|  _| _|  _|    \__/    _____/  _|  _|  _| _|  __| _|  _|

   The only thing you shouldn't do is cop somebody else's sig.  Other 
than that, most people do 'find' ASCII art somewhere and use it in their 
sig.  And you can always use a quote or two.

   If you are posting to the ASCII groups, or sending an email message, 
you can use a big sig.  But for most groups, 4 to 6 lines is a good rule 
of thumb.
