Veronica can reply to this-- but I feel as though I must put my couple of
cents in.  I don't think that Veronica meant to 'slam' the original poster.
I've seen Veronica (and others) write encouraging words to new posters
to the NG.  I'm sure she was referring to the image itself-- and not a personal
dig.

I will have to disagree with your first sentence.  The first pic of Princess
Di is obviously a scanned image-- one obtained from using software.
It doesn't take much work to run a pic through a program.  Usually when
a converter is used, people must "clean up" the final image.  This pic
didn't look "cleaned-up".

I hope that you do post your work on the NG-- it isn't an *expert* group--
we were all newbies at one time...  I think that you will find that it is a
very encouraging and supportive group (as long as you talk about
ASCII art)...

So- here is a request-- some ASCII art from Jeannette Upchurch!
