This was the first one ..
I need some info on how well the barcodes work...
I know on a PC with ansi.sys loaded it looks like a real barcode (pretty cool)
And on a Mac Plus (OLDOLDOLD) with Zterm 0.9 it looks weird but still
looks almost like a barcode...

This is the improved version...
BTW:
KOHb means knight or horse in russian so that's why you have the little 
knight there.. 
Anyone got a better close sized knight out there??
Also interested in horses or Renaissance (sp?) Knights like Sir Launcelot!

Here is the latest version ... The previous is my current sig but this 
is the one i just made today...
It doesn't have a barcode...
I believe it could be improved by putting something in those 4 lines
Where i have my name and e-mail address ..
I don't think figlet will provide me with a reasonable font in 4 lines...
Also looking for a duck saying Quack! instead of the second knight
(Long story; look for cranium on the internet chess server and ask him
about it... )
Also this last version has shortened lines so my news reader/poster won't 
complain..:)


I would also like some input as to how well people see this sig on different
computerrs...

Thank you !
:)
