 First of all, you should use only ASCII-characters. Take a look at this
nice list:

    ASCII Character Table   The numbers show you the hex-code of
    =====================   the characters (e.g. the letter 'C' has
       xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx     the code 43).
   `.  0123456789ABCDEF
     `,----------------.    Only the characters that you can find
   2x | !"#$%&'()*+,-./|.   in this box are called ASCII, you
   3x |0123456789:;<=>?||   shouldn't use any other.
   4x |@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO||
   5x |PQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_||   Also you should see this as a box.
   6x |`abcdefghijklmno||   If you don't then you have to change
   7x |pqrstuvwxyz{|}~ ||   to a fixed-width font (e.g. COURIER).
      `----------------'|
       `----------------'   Use only these characters and you will
                   [alf]    have more fun in news:alt.ascii-art


 I'll try to guess what the characters you used should look like (for
they quite sure look different over here than what they look at your
end):

            /\
           /  \
          /    \
  -------/------\-------
  `~--._/        \_.--~'
       /`~--  --~`\ 
      /  _--'`--_  \  
     /_-~        ~-_\

 It looks quite nice that way. Let's see if I can add a circle (and
diddle the pentagram a little:

           ____
      .--~~ /\ ~~--.
    /      /  \      \
  ,'      /    \      `.
  -------/------\-------
  `~--._/        \_.--~'
  `    /~~--__--~~\    '
   \  /  _-~  ~-_  \  /
    `/_-~        ~-_\'
       ~~--____--~~    -Nightshifter/Alf

 It looks a little "flat" in my font - not really like a circle, more
like an ellipse, but it should lead to to the right direction.

 You should wrap your code to 80 character _maximum_. And use the
sugguestion from the page for the start and the endline of the block ;)

 Have fun!
