I was wondering how many of you care about handcrafted ASCII art, which I think is an amazing art style. I would also like to see any drawings you can come up with (this is not required, but it would be fun if you tried; non-ascii chars are fine too). Here goes my attempt: . . '.'.-""-.'.' -./` ({}) `\.- / \ : VvvvvvvV : -- I'm the almighty cacodemon! \ \ / / \ ^^^^ / `'----'` fva Note: If you decide to post a drawing, paste it as a "code snippet" (so that a monospaced font is used). You can check the alignment with the preview button. Edited by: fva

That's pretty good. I do like ascii art and every so often I'll have a stab at something like this but I've never quite got the hang of it.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it . Something I found helpful, and that may be helpful to you too, is this faq by Joan Stark. Her drawings, by the way, are quite impressive, and can be found at her archived website. If you get inspired and decide to draw something, please consider posting it here . Edited by: fva
