Talk: Is it OK to copy ASCII art?

Talk: Is it OK to copy ASCII art?

This is really an interesting subject, but I believe that little
can be done about copying anything at all that one finds on the net.

For instance, I have a sig for a dog-related mailing list.  I drew it
from scratch.  (Believe me, it's not a great piece of art).  Yet, I
found it, minus my user-id, in one of the small ascii posts here
quite recently.  It had been submitted by someone else, with THAT
person's name on it.
