I'm the author of FIGWin (the Windows clone of FIGlet).

I just released a beta version.  It uses any of HUNDREDS of existing 
fonts to create lettering like this...

   __      __       .__
  /  \    /  \ ____ |  |   ____  ____   _____   ____
  \   \/\/   // __ \|  | _/ ___\/  _ \ /     \_/ __ \
   \        /\  ___/|  |_\  \__(  <_> )  Y Y  \  ___/
    \__/\  /  \___  >____/\___  >____/|__|_|  /\___  >
         \/       \/ _/  |_  _\/_           \/     \/
                     \   __\/  _ \
                      |  | (  <_> )
     ___________.___  |__|__\____/    __.__      ._.
     \_   _____/|   |/  _____/  \    /  \__| ____| |
      |    __)  |   /   \  __\   \/\/   /  |/    \ |
      |     \   |   \    \_\  \        /|  |   |  \|
      \___  /   |___|\______  /\__/\  / |__|___|  /_
          \/                \/      \/          \/\/

If you're familiar with FIGlet, you'll probably LOVE the new features, 
particularly the friendly interface!

Also on my page is an announcement of an upcoming program called "ASCII 
Art Suite" which lets you create ASCII art just like a drawing program!
