Not too long ago I had asked for some line art of Celtic Knotwork. Due to the underwhelming response, I decided to knuckle down and make my own. Here are some examples. ..jm -=-=-=-=-=-=- /~~\/~~\/~~\/~~\/~~\/~~\ | /\/ /\/ /\/ /\/ /\/ /\ | | \/ /\/ /\/ /\/ /\/ /\/ | \ \/\ \/\ \/\ \/\ \/\ \/ /\ \/\ \/\ \/\ \/\ \/\ \ | /\/ /\/ /\/ /\/ /\/ /\ | | \/ /\/ /\/ /\/ /\/ /\/ | \__/\__/\__/\__/\__/\__/ /~~\/~~\/~~\/~~\/~~\/~~\ | db/ db/ db/ db/ db/ db | | 9P /9P /9P /9P /9P /9P | \ \db \db \db \db \db \/ /\ 9P\ 9P\ 9P\ 9P\ 9P\ \ | db/ db/ db/ db/ db/ db | | 9P /9P /9P /9P /9P /9P | \__/\__/\__/\__/\__/\__/ With the above, I tried filling in the holes to give it the "shaded" look. Sorta worked. :-/ /~~~~\/~~~~\ | |~\/ /~| | \ \/ /\/ / \ \/\ \/ __/\ \/\ \__ ___/\__/\___ This is a basic 6x4 knot. With a little cut-n-pasting, you can string them together: /~~~~\/~~~~\/~~~~\/~~~~\/~~~~\/~~~~\/~~~~\/~~~~\ | |~\/ /~| || |~\/ /~| || |~\/ /~| || |~\/ /~| | \ \/ /\/ / \ \/ /\/ / \ \/ /\/ / \ \/ /\/ / \ \/\ \/ \ \/\ \/ \ \/\ \/ \ \/\ \/ __/\ \/\ \____/\ \/\ \____/\ \/\ \____/\ \/\ \__ ___/\__/\______/\__/\______/\__/\______/\__/\___ 8~~~\/~~\/~~~ 8 8b/ db/ d8 8 9P /9P /9P 8b \db \db \d 8P\ 9P\ 9P\ 9 __db__db__db_ This is another 6x4 knot that I shaded in. Strung together, you get: 8~~~\/~~\/~~~8~~~\/~~\/~~~8~~~\/~~\/~~~8~~~\/~~\/~~~ 8 8b/ db/ d8 8 8b/ db/ d8 8 8b/ db/ d8 8 8b/ db/ d8 8 9P /9P /9P 8 9P /9P /9P 8 9P /9P /9P 8 9P /9P /9P 8b \db \db \d8b \db \db \d8b \db \db \d8b \db \db \d 8P\ 9P\ 9P\ 98P\ 9P\ 9P\ 98P\ 9P\ 9P\ 98P\ 9P\ 9P\ 9 __db__db__db___db__db__db___db__db__db___db__db__db_ This is the knot pattern that I decided for my .sig file, but I removed the shading. I took the pattern: /~~~\/~~\/~~~\ | /\/ /\/ /\ | \ \/ /\/ /\/ / \ \/\ \/\ \/ _/\ \/\ \/\ \_ __/\__/\__/\__ and strung it together. Note that I modified the right half to mirror the left: /~~~\/~~\/~~~\/~~~\/~~\/~~~\ /~~~\/~~\/~~~\/~~~\/~~\/~~~\ | /\/ /\/ /\ || /\/ /\/ /\ | James M Mudge | /\ \/\ \/\ || /\ \/\ \/\ | \ \/ /\/ /\/ /\ \/ /\/ /\/ /jmu...@world.std.com\ \/\ \/\ \/ /\ \/\ \/\ \/ / \ \/\ \/\ \/ \ \/\ \/\ \/ Boston MA \/ /\/ /\/ / \/ /\/ /\/ / ,_/\ \/\ \/\ \__/\ \/\ \/\ \______________________/ /\/ /\/ /\__/ /\/ /\/ /\_, (__/\__/\__/\____/\__/\__/\________________________/\__/\__/\____/\__/\__/\__) I didn't care for it, so I redid it, this time inverting the pattern so it was now upsidedown! ~~\/~~\/~~\/~~ ~\ \/\ \/\ \/~ /\ \/\ \/\ \ / /\/ /\/ /\ \ | \/ /\/ /\/ | \___/\__/\___/ This is the final .sig.
