Frequently asked questions
How can I display a horse in my equestrian forum signature?
Use the medium-sized horse. Forum signatures usually support monospace fonts, which will keep the horse perfectly aligned. It will stand out nicely without being too large.
Is horse ASCII art suitable for a GitHub README?
Yes, a medium or large horse can add a distinguished touch to your GitHub README.md. Markdown renders text in a monospace font, preserving the art's structure and making your project stand out.
What size horse is best for a text message?
The small horse is ideal for text messages. It's concise and less likely to wrap on mobile screens, allowing you to convey elegance or a love for horses in a compact way.
