It could be that the font are different ie the fonts that the art was 
created in is different to that of agent 99,( if you can set up the 
fonts in 99 )
we had the same problem check your fonts.

To whomever:

When I attach ASCII art as a sig in Agent99, it gets scrambled.  I've
tried everything (that I could think of) but my art is not posting
correctly.  What am I doing wrong???

Thanx.

It could be that you are using tabs instead of spaces.  I used to have 
problems with that too.  Rember SPACES not tabs !!  :)

(1)  You have 8bit characters in your name.
(2)  You didn't give a valid return address in Reply-To.
(3)  You use "*" as your "organization" - but it is "netcom".
(4)  You are using a crappy newsreader.
(5)  You obviously don't have a clue.

skooter,  I'm not sure what you mean by scrambled? Have you tried
using a fixed font? Do your sigs look scrambled when YOU view them or
other people? A varible pitch font in Agent can throw this ASCII art
way out!!

Hope this helps????

I am certain your kind of "help" is not what was intended,
desired, expected nor accepted.   The largest flaw of the
internet is the snide remarks (such as yours) from rude people
(such as yourself).  

People say you can find anything and everything somewhere on the
net, well I agree because it seems to have more than a fair share
of buttheads (to put it politely).  

If you cannot reply to a post with info and/or comments that are
relevant and/or beneficial; why waste your time writing junk so
that others (such as myself) waste time reading your junk.
