    I just found this brill website
    http://www.network-science.de/ascii/

    You enter a word in the box and then choose a style, and it gives you the word in that style... but it is in ASCII format :D so you can use it for email sigs, boards.ie sigs (anyone remeber my other dreadful attempt of writing "TIM" for my sig ;))

    Here are some examples 
    \_ |__   _________ _______  __| _/______  |__| ____  
 | __ \ /  _ \__  \\_  __ \/ __ |/  ___/  |  |/ __ \ 
 | \_\ (  <_> ) __ \|  | \/ /_/ |\___ \   |  \  ___/ 
 |___  /\____(____  /__|  \____ /____  > /\__|\___  >
     \/           \/           \/    \/  \/       \/

    `-. .-': :: `' :: .; :: :: :: :' ;`--. :
  : :  : :: .. ::   .': :: ::   '   ,','
  : :  : :: :; :: .; :: :; :: :.`..'.'_ 
  :_;  :_;:_;:_;:___.'`.__.':_;:_;:____;


    /\__  _\/\__  _\   /'\_/`\/\  _`\  /\ \/\ \/\ \/\ \   /'___`\   
\/_/\ \/\/_/\ \/  /\      \ \ \L\ \\ \ \ \ \ \ \/'/' /\_\ /\ \  
   \ \ \   \ \ \  \ \ \__\ \ \  _ <'\ \ \ \ \ \ , <  \/_/// /__ 
    \ \ \   \_\ \__\ \ \_/\ \ \ \L\ \\ \ \_\ \ \ \\`\   // /_\ \
     \ \_\  /\_____\\ \_\\ \_\ \____/ \ \_____\ \_\ \_\/\______/
      \/_/  \/_____/ \/_/ \/_/\/___/   \/_____/\/_/\/_/\/_____/

    it's black so anyone with the cloud theme can't read it without selecting it.

    when selected i sure as hell can't make it out.

    If you have the cloud theme on it just comes up white, like this writing, what is the problem with seeing it in white??
