I'm afraid your picture got munged. It looks like you used a variable width font; try Lucida Console, Terminal, or Courier New. There were also a few non-ascii characters (like �) which aren't guaranteed to look the same on all systems. I've replaced them with their nearest ascii equivalents. The FAQ has a list of valid ascii characters. Here's what I think your pic was supposed to look like; it's hard to tell exactly because I don't have the same font. If it's not quite right, fix it up and post it again. | | .---. { ::::: } (�`-.{ ::::::: }.-'�) (�`-.,(�`-.,{ } IXI { },.-'�),.-'�) \ }\ `- -' /{ / } } { { ...Im gonna eat ya puppies... ..and consume them like flies.. .----------------------. |-=-> fiend@c4.com <-=-| `----------------------� -- Harry Mason ("hjm200.ecs@soton@ac@uk" =~ tr/@./.@/)
