Other than my server (see sig) which is where I "hang out" while I draw and script,
in your IRC client (mIRC is my prefered software for several reasons)
use:
 /server irc.awesomechat.net 6667 (dumps you auto into a chat/"popup" channel)
 /server OklahomaCity.OK.US.ChatNet.Org 6667 (use /list after connecting and find one)
 /server tsunami.ma.us.dal.net 7000 (or 6667) (use /list popups or /list mirc_ )
some are better than others, few have original ASCII (and extended character) Art, most
though not all are giving proper credit. 
I am redoing some pictures and adding one or two to a "presentation" or "show" for 
Halloween and will be around mid-week if interested.
