In deference to Sven, I've narrowed my sig to 5 lines instead of 6. But I 
won't go to 4 just so he can still be concerned that people will insist on 
breaking the rules.

Hey! No problem, boss.  I have a solution.  Just put the two dashes in the sig
so that only 4 lines come after the dashes. Might look a bit tacky t some, but
at least no one can say it's over 4 lines. :)

Well, I assume you all know that the sigdashes are on a line by itself and
that the signature comes after it.  NOTE:  This is just for educational
purposes - and to make some peopel happy for a really really lousy troll.

Hey Sven!  Do you even have another subject?  I found an ascii picture
for you to use in your sig.  I think it might fit your personality.
Of course, I couldn't find a picture of Hitler or a Nazi storm trooper. :)

Don't let that idiot Sven defeat you Llizard! Her is a nice big one just for
you (I know it's a dinosaur but they're a kind of lizards right? and I don't 
know who made it):

(no, I'm only joking, don't use a sig this big - except possibly when writing
letters to Sven...)

Ok, this is what I've come up with:

             
       ~~0 /
        /_oo-#= \_|_/             \ 0==
        .| \/  _|_|_|_   \_|_/ =#-@@_\
        ||__      |,    _|_|_|_     |.    Q
   0 /  | |\\    /|\       |,     __||   _ @
  /_oo-#=   ''            /|\    //| |  / /_\
  .| \/     _/                \_''     L(_)__
  ||__       |,                |,     _( )_\.  
  | |\\     /|\         EJM96 /|\    / / /| | 
      ''                            '   '

What do you think?

I have figured out how to get the violinists and the violist in but am having 
trouble with the cellist. Any suggestions?

       ~~0 /
        /_oo-#= \_|_/             \ 0==
        .| \/  _|_|_|_   \_|_/ =#-@@_\
        ||__      |,    _|_|_|_     |.
   0 /  | |\\    /|\       |,     __||  
  /_oo-#=   ''            /|\    //| |
  .| \/     _/                \_''       .
  ||__       |,                |,      __| 
  | |\\     /|\         EJM96 /|\      | | 
      ''              


Here's what I've come up with so far. 
                0 
               _ @
              / /_\
      \_     L()  .
       |,   _() _||
EJM96 /|\  / / /| |
          '   '


Ok, ok, Sven, you win.
