This is fun and I love it when I see presentation like this. I'm terrible at that kind of thing. Even drawing, I can only do stick figures.

These are fun and a challenge because if one character is added in the wrong place, it can throw out alignment to the whole thing. Truth Ryan I have no artistic ability. I cant draw a straight line. Its all trial and error for me. Thanks for your encouraging comment.
