Keep in mind that ASCII-Characters are those with an value of 32-126 decimal or 20 to 7E hex. Someone who has a list handy please post it :-) The eyes you made are using 192dec (or c0hex), which isn't in this rage, and the feet are made up of 248dec. There is also a small reminder to use the ' instead of � (which looks quite the same in most charsets but isn't ASCII either). So use the ' (should be SHIFT-# on german keyboard or SHIFT-7, I believe?). My ascii-diddle for this little owl (I think): ,--. `LL' ' ` `oo' Well, it doesn't work out that well... But at least it's universal and can be seen by everyone (with a monospaced font). The codes from 128dec on are up to the local encoding. Quite many people use iso-8859-1 for that (which is what you used) but not all of them. But all have the ASCII characters. Read about this in detail in the FAQ which is posted quite frequently. > `�v�� > (_) > --"-"-- Here the same as above: `LvL' (_) --"-"-- Well, somehow the L doesn't look quite well - but at the moment I can't think of anything suiting better and displaying the thing you wanted displayed.... > ///) > ///�( > // _/ > | | > ( \ > \\ \) > )\ \ > / \_\ > | \& > | | > | | > | | > |____| > (_\ Here it's just the eye, again: ///) ///o( // _/ | | ( \ \\ \) )\ \ / \_\ | \& | | | | | | |____| (_\ I think, the 'o' does suit quite well in here. > any comments?
