signature field.  I hope someone can help.

>Joey D. Foote

well, playing cards are hard to squeeze in few lines.  here's a first
attempt:

,-------------.
| 6           |
| X           |
|   /\   /\   |
|   \/   \/   |
|             |
|   /\   /\   |
|   \/   \/   |
|             |
|   /\   /\   |
|   \/   \/   |
|           X |
|           9 |
`-------------'


here is a (larger) second attempt


    /
   (_)
    .
   / \
   \ /
    `

       /
     ,/ \.
    <'   `>
     `\,/'
       / 

well, i just included the components, the card can be easily made from what
i have listed.  well, i guess one could make a small diamond using <>.  and
i could leave off the diamond in the corner.

third attempt:

,-------.
|6      |
| <> <> |
| <> <> |
| <> <> |
|      9|
`-------'

there you go!

         | \/ \/ \/ |

          ________
         |{}{}{}{}|_
         |}|6       |
         |{| /\/\/\ |
         |}| \/\/\/ |

its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.

Hmmm.... this was a nice little challenge.... but I got an idea, why not
let the "diamonds" be shaded...

and if that is not clear enough you could put a frame around them


four line sig size version:



  ______

(hmmmm.... that one looked better in emacs.... hmmm....


  ____

:D  even more compressed version...)


and here is a larger one:

(and a couple of compressed versions:

hmmm... :P )


and here they are with numbers added:

I have never tried ascii before.  Could someone help me design a picture
to accompany the following: " The sun settingis no less beautiful than
the sun rising."  I saw this before with a picture of an old and a young
woman.  I'm in the field of Gerontology and would like to design a
signature file.  Thanks.
