   |-our years ago, I was extremely amused by ASCII pictures.  I
   have been collecting them every since.  

    _
   |-or a couple of years, I have cataloged and published three 
   volumes of Compuart collections.  Then, in spite of habitually
   saving beautiful pictures encountered in other people's plan 
   files, signatures, etc, in a private directory, my enthusiasm
   faded.

   _                                            (^)_(^)(^)_(^)
   (oday, I have got hundreds of nice ASCII     /   ..)(..   \
   graphics in that directory.  AND... my    __/    ( || )    \_
   enthusiasm returns.  This means you      (_/      *  *     (_)
   will have a chance to see those art      /                   |\
   works by requesting my Art Collection    |          |     |  | |
   Volume 4.                                |  |       |     \__/ |
                                            \__/       |          |
 ! ()ne tricky point, though.  You MUST      |         |          |
 ! send me ONE or more ASCII graphics in      >         \        /
 ! order to trade.  It can be of any size    <____,--,___|_/|____>
 ! and variety.  It does not need to be your
 ! original work.  However, it must NOT be digitized pictures 
 ! (i.e. captured by a camera and converted into ASCII).  This is
 ! the only requirement.


   (| brief description: Vol. 1 is a collection of ingenious logos
   and signatures.  Vol. 2 is a collection of screen size graphics.

   As for Vol. 4, it's a collection of animals and cartoon figures.
