I need to spruce up my debugging messages. I have a smiley in there :D, but someone suggested using a unicorn. There are some nice resources on ASCII unicorns (e.g. http://www.ascii-art.de/ascii/uvw/unicorn.txt), but these are all too large to fit on one line. How should I go about writing in a small ASCII unicorn?

Here are my attempts:

  ~nn°'    `°nn~       ~m°'    `°m~
  ~nn"'    `"nn~       ~m"'    `"m~
  ~nnº'    `ºnn~       ~mº'    `ºm~
  ~nnº¯    ¯ºnn~       ~mº¯    ¯ºm~
  ~nn^'    `^nn~       ~m^'    `^m~

Note: ° (degree), º (masculine ordinal indicator), and ¯ (macron) aren't ASCII.

I've been trying! Haha! Believe meee! I can't find any, but how about some other single line pictures?

Like a fish:

><((('>

or a snail:

@/`

or a spider:

//\O/\\

or a caterpillar:

OOOOó

or just something like:

٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶
(>n_n)># (Debug line number indicator? :D)

@Claudiu Even added a few more ;D! – BloodPhilia Aug 10 '10 at 22:14
mm that is a brilliant confused face, i have to admit! but is not strict ascii sadly – Claudiu Aug 10 '10 at 22:20
@Claudiu Aww I forgot! Darn! I'd love to see a debug log of yours when it's done! haha! – BloodPhilia Aug 10 '10 at 22:32

This sort of looks like an upside-down unicorn, if you squint enough:
