Last week I was asked to produce a .sig for the student television 
station of which I am a member. For the sig I decided to attempt the 
stations logo, an exploded isometric projection of a cube!

for those that didn't do any basic tech drawing then this 
basically means three sides of the cube visible, top and two upright 
sides, with an upright edge closest to you. To be isometric (in the same 
meaning that I was taught) the verticals are vertical (!) but the none 
vertical edges  should be at thirty degrees to the horizontal. The 
exploded bit just means the sides are then seperated by a small gap.

so far this is my attempt...

BEGIN SIG
			      _  _/_ 
	   _.-'-._	(  / ( ` /  (  /	Mail:YSTV
	.-'       '-.	 \/ ,_) (_,  \/		     Goodricke College,
       :.`-._   _.-'.:	_/   York Student 	     University of York,
       | `-._`-'_.-' | 	      Television	     Heslington,
       |     | |     |				     York
       |     | |     |	 Email:-		     YO1 5DD
        `-._ | | _.-'	    ystv@unix.york.ac.uk
            `' `'	
	^its a exploded, isometric
	projection of a cube (honest)..and its our logo!

END SIG

I was just curious to see if any of you ascii experts could provide any 
better representation of the cube bit?? (the rest I am happy with)

Thanks
Adam
