I've heard it called Ascii Art and you can't do it on this site.
It was an old way to print graphics in the day when all they could print were the letters of the alphabet plus a few more things. Imagine trying to make a picture with an old style typewriter - if you even know what I'm talking about!

The only simple way you can really do it now is to get a j-peg / picture of one and send the picture.

oh no I cant do this here (

I'm not sure if you meant something simple or ACSII but I use 3 and + to form= 3 that will transform into a heart shape in certain places that support it.

Hmm the greater than lesser than sign thingy didnt show up before the 3.Weird.
