As from now you can post up to 80 characters / line without any problem (no change) and then up to 200 characters / line if you add "long lines" to the body of the post (up from 160). Anything over that will now be forwarded to a moderator for review (they used to be rejected). I have also been thinking about an FAQ on ASCII art. We can either use the alt.ascii-art one or write our own. Any comments are gratefully received. If there is anything else in the posting guidelines that you would like us to look at the please feel free to contact us. -- Graham Drabble (Head Moderator - rec.arts.ascii) Posting Guidelines: Submissions: rec-arts-ascii@gweep.ca.
