   I let my word processor (MS Word) do that stuff for me. For MS Word you
can download Internet Assistant from the MS web page and add it to the
word processor. Internet Assistant lets you create an html file just as
easily as a .doc or .txt file.
   You can create a web page by opening an ascii file and then saving it
as a .htm file. The word processor does all the work for you. You can add
links and other things very easily. I think all the major word processors
work similarly so you should be able to do this with Word Perfect or
whatever else you might use. 
   I put the picture below on my page just as I described above. I think
bold text looks better for ascii pictures when using graphical web
browsers such as Netscape so I made the entire picture bold text.
   Netscape Gold has a simple feature that lets you colorize text. I used
that feature to colorize this black and white picture of Goofy for my web
page. Color adds a lot to these pictures and it's very simple and quick to
do.
