I thought you were doing it yourself. I did it myself! Generated ASCII-Art is for Losers. I just translated "galwen nin mellon" into a Tengwar Font, and then took this, zoomed it, and drew my picture with this. Because I had no picture on which I could see, what "galwen nin mellon" looks like in tengwar. so the programm made a TEXT document with "galwen nin mellon" in tengwar. Tengwar doesn't produce ASCII-Art, it produces a simple text-file, but the font isnt times new roman, or any other common font, its a tengwar font. The output of Tengwar looks like this: http://www.8ung.at/jackel/tengscribe.jpg I took this dokument, looked at it, and then drew my ASCII-picture. Its like I look at a picture, and then paint an ASCII-Picture of this original picture. Greets Daniel -- .'. SPACE INVADERS .'. .'.#.'. .'.#.'. :#####: __.^.__ :#####: //^\\ | 4ever | //^\\
