Not bad, but
(a) don't post in HTML
(b) I get the feeling from the HTML that your drawing was designed for Arial
(although for me it works less well in variable width). Ascii must be with a
fixed width font, otherwise what looks great to you will look like rubbish to
everyone else.

That said, pretending I used a variable width font is a good excuse when what I
produce actually is rubbish <g>

Welcome to the group, don't let my comments stop you Asciiing in any way.
