That's one reason engineers and many other techies have a hard time grokking 'style'. We have a hard time figuring out how to approach utter nonsense.

Here's an old one for you (although incomplete and still being added to
as of the beginning of this year) ...
Star Wars ASCIImation

Or maybe you prefer Star Trek ...

In Terminal: > > telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl Nope. :-) That's based on an older copy of the original at my link (it says so in the first "frame"), so is less complete. There's various copies of it around, including a YouTube version with sound taken from the movie, but the ASCIImation website is the original source and therefore most up-to-date.

Someone *definitely* has too much free time on their hands! ;)

Certain endeavors have various aspects, which with sensitive handling
given reasonable discretion when circumstances permit until the need
expires unless events conspire to intervene, for which there's no prima
facia reason why, with the appropriate give and take if all goes well in
the fullness of time, that as far as one can see can clearly and
efficiently achieve a confluence of advantageous productivity if the
time is ripe.

When I was working Christmas Eve at a small 3K FM'er, the main joy
was the teletype. As it turned Christmas Day at the various bureaus each
one would send greetings in whatever their ASCII art equivalent. Rome
did a wonderous Madonna and Child with strike overs, etc., that gave all
sorts of shading and nuance. One I always looked forward to. (sigh).

I didn't draw them - I copied them from a website years ago. I had to
remove a couple of big ships because they ere too wide for standard
Usenet line lengths.
Here's a few more "borrowed" ASCII signatures ...

(='.'=) This is Bunny. Copy and paste Bunny into your

()___() This is Bear. Copy and paste Bear into your

Commander Keen agrees! Though I've found a fair bit of ASCII art
surviving on BBSes still running <http://www.telnetbbsguide.com/>. I
used to love really good ASCII art pre-WWW and even in early WWW days
when ASCII art was dialup friendly. Remember when you'd wait minutes for
some graphic heavy web pages to load? Not with ASCII art! :-)

But then I'd miss the well considered opinions and scintillating commentary! Not to mention the sigs. :-D -- This is not a sig. It has never been a sig. In fact, this sig wouldn't even know what a sig looks like.
