   It seems that folks ask a lot of questions on these ASCII art groups.  
And it makes sense that they have their own ID.  "Request" isn't appropriate
because somebody who might be able to answer the question, may have the 
word "request" in a kfile because they don't make or store ASCII art.

   So, I added a "Question" ID.  Here are the current IDs:


     Line - Standard ASCII line art.  Line pictures and large lettering.
      GIF - Gray scale image.
      Big - Wider than 80 columns (and optionally, longer than 24 lines).
Animation - Animation.  Usually uuencoded.
    Color - Color.  Usually uuencoded.
      3-D - 3-D art.
  Request - Request for a certain picture or type of picture.
 Question - A question concerning any of the ASCII art topics.
   Repost - Repost of a previously posted pic.
     Talk - Discussion, no pics included.
   Binary - Binaries (software like Figlet and Gifscii).  Usually uuencoded.
