This way it looks : symetrical. : 8888888888 : '*888888*' : If there is only one slope on the right, I use a P, if there : is one slope on the left I use a Y. I think the *'s do not fit in with the general shade of the 8's - they make the object look darker (or lighter depending on your screeen). Out of the many suggestions I recieved, I think I prefer the Y. The ? makes the edge smooth, but again adds a 'hole' to the overall shade.
