Here's what I found when searching for Colins art...mostly diddles and stuff, but it shows the great humour this man had. There are more posts from on my site, Wicked Ascii Art, but it's mostly collections of other peoples art.
His memory will truly live on online. (Hope you see this Colin, whereever you are...)

Well, the globe didn't look quite round enough on my 80 x 24 monochrome monitor so I put your horse back into Laura's globe and put some snow back in there again...

Hmmm.... doing a search for "cfbd" in my collection gives this result:
GIANT KITE - The Megabite ============================
Constructed by Peter Lynn of Ashburton, New Zealand, the kite is 55 metres long and 22 metres wide and weighs 150 kg. It is modelled on a Trilobite pre-historic animal which it imitates by "swimming" in the air.

<art & memories gently snipped>
This is excellent! If memory serves me correctly, he sent me this cow once during a split debate in 1996:
Did Colin create this bull? I have it uncredited in my files. I know that he posted it several times-- but Colin posted LOTS of ASCII art-- his own creations and that of other people. Does anyone know?
I've been working on a tribute page for Colin and his contribution to ASCII art. Feel free to check out what I do have so far... http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/7373/cfbd.htm

I have no idea....I copied a lot of stuff from his mails. It might have been another ones drawing, it doesn't have his signature on it...

Hmmm :) I also had that idea....just a collection of his arts that is. For now you can find it on the recent additions page on my site. (will be added to the collection soon...)
