| welcome to this rather queer collection. i'm
| afraid it might become a bit confusing to read,
| because the structure ain't good enough..
| and why is that ? i guess most of my inspirat
-. | -ion went to my last production. so sad. hehe.

: | : lets get to the what and the why regarding
: | : this one here. i have had thoughts of making
: . | : a colly where i looked through my past
: \\ | : productions and commented them a little.
:. \ | .: and finally then the time seemed to be right.
�::::\::|:� at the end of a millenium. bUt i did not
-\\-|- get time to finish it before i had to travel
| home for christmas, but now i'm back !
|
| in addition to the chapter just described,
| ( the one with a high level of selfcentredness )
| i have for the first time made a tiny respect
| chapter. the asciiartists mentioned here, are
| those who i can remember have been most
| influental to my previous work, either by
| friendship or by admiration.
|
| and ofcourse i had some requests waiting :)
|
| . have a good vibe .

| my first fumbeling asciisteps were made in the
| beginning of 1993 (i guess).. what i made was
| mostly strange logos, quite strange.. when i
| think back, i realize that i must have had a
| real fine imagination that time.
|
| but then, inspirated by those nice collections,
| i realized that was the thing. so i developed
| a readable style, and voila:

| a new style made from scratch. it was actually made |

| this collection was an experimental release. loads |
| of exciting new styles here. the melon logo is in |
| my opinion my best one ever ! |
\-- - - --/
- --/ \-- -
| one of my absolute better asciicollections. mostly |
| dominated by the sfg-style, but also various |
| other ones included, like this one :) |
\-- - - --/
- --/ \-- -
| this style is a revised version of the last one, |
| and the one i've used numerous times later. i really |
| like this one. easy to read, and simple. |
\-- - - --/
- --/ \-- -
| and then i reentered the ask�bizz ! mainly used the |
| lf-style, but also this "mutant" here. a bit sharper |
| in the edges, ye? |
\-- - - --/
- --/ \-- -
| a yummycolly ! one of my fav, indeed. i used four |
| old styles in addition to two or three new experimental |
| ones! .. mmmMm . |
\-- - - --/
- --/ \-- -
| same styles used as in alive! . a pure gift |
| collection, and it is with great sadness i see that |
| sysops rarely change their bbs-asciidesign. |

| a difficould collection to make ! but i learned |
| quite a bit.. i recomend everyone to read every article |
| in it. a "new" style was made. dramatic ? |
\-- - - --/
- --/ \-- -
| ok. apart from 4 logos with the int-style, only |
| the good ol'alive style were used. .i am productive |
| but not experimental enough with my styles. |

| eight previously released small styles in revised |

| my best ascii collection ever. |
