Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can help me.  I had to reformat my harddrive due to
un-comprehensable (at least to my non-tech brain) problems.  In the
process I found that I could not retrieve all of my ASCII art that I had
saved from this newsgroup from my back-ups discs.  There was some type
of corruption.

I managed to find most of it but someone had posted a mouse holding a
wedge of cheese that had the address and name of the person inside the
piece of cheese.

If anyone has a copy, could they please send it along to me.  I would
appreciate it tremendously.

Also, I lost the information pertaining to the fonts that are used for
this type of work, because the all line up properly.  Couls someone
please send/post that information again as well.

Thanks so much!

Sandra (who will eventually have some of your very tallented work to
pass around to others - SOON!!!)

I don't understand why people continuously remove an artist's signature
to their work.  No one would ever consider walking up to a Rembrant and
painting over their signature... why do they feel this is any less a
work of art.

I have used some of the work by some of you here and would never
consider this proper to do.  Also, many ask where the art comes from and
I gladly direct them to the many ASCII artists so that they can see the
wonderful work that you all produce.

This is the way it should be.  I just consider my use of it a
"promotion" of all of your work.
