READ ABOUT THIS ASCII-ART PROJECT AND CHECK OUT THE RESULTS BELOW!!!!

This was an experiment if you will. It was a compilation ascii-art
project. One person did a portion of the picture and set the theme and 
then passed it on to the next person. When all 5 people did their part
of the scene, then they all took turns in diddling each others work. 

I think it turned out so well, I would like to do some more of these. 
Using nursery rhymes, seemed to be a fun thing to do. If you would like
to participate in one let me know by email, and we'll get 5 people
grouped together. Also, include some nusery rhymes and the words to
them, that you would like to see done. If I get enough people wanting
to do the same ones, I will get you paired up together. No promises on
doing the one you submit though. Obviously, not everyone likes the same
rhymes. *S*

Your friend,
Donovan
