Who's who in ASCII art

Subject: Talk/Line: who's who of ascii (500 lines)
Date: Wed Jan 24 04:36:23 1996
Brian Odom <bodom@cs.indiana.edu> suggested making a list of ascii
artists, and started the ball rolling with these participants:
>>scarecrow (aka the archiver)
>>colin douthwaite (sp?) (another archiver)
>>philip kaulfuss (boy genius)
>>daniel au (haven't seen him in awhile)
>>valkyrie (lovely e-stamp collection)
>>lennert stock (weird abstract style. i like it)
>>christopher (xopher) (will make a sig for anyone)
>>normand veilleux (is he still around?) i think i saw him awhile back
>>rowan (is he still around?)
>>brian odom (i've been away for awhile. i specialize in logos)
>>q-ris (whatever happened to him?)
>>allen mullen (if only someone could program gifscii to emulate allen)
>>susie oviant (sp?) this name rings a bell for some reason
>>james (another guy who lurks around)
Normand Veilleux <nveilleu@emr1.emr.ca> corrected the spelling of
Susie Oviatt's name and made this addition to the list:
>You should definitely add Tua Xiong to your list. He has done several
>amazing ASCII pictures too.
I propose adding examples of the artists' work when adding to the list,
so people can see what's out there and get some idea of why you like
their art. For example:
Felix Lee (fL): perhaps best known for his numerous cats -- his can
of Spam is more widely circulated, but often his initials
have been removed from it.

but he doesn't seem to be posting much these days...

a wolf. (View with white foreground on black background.
Recommended viewing distance 2-3 metres.)

Mike Jittlov: created (among many, many other delightful things) a
portrait of Meriday. (This is just the short version.
The full-length portrait can be viewed by typing
