Don't get confused with the title. If I put ASCII in the title it would be more confusing, so for simplicity, think of it as the pictures made with alphabets and numbers. Still confused? take a look at what ASCII art really looks like (the second image). It was so huge in the text editor so I have posted an image of it.
So why do we need ASCII art? Come on! Just for fun. We can post it anywhere on the web and get a lot of WOWs. The best part is that it could be used in any text field. So some sites where picture comments are not yet allowed we can use this.
If you like this idea, then it is time to use it.
Alright! Lets Begin.
>> Download this software. It is tiny portable program, so no need to install, simply extract it wherever you like.
>> Run the program. It will look something like this. Notice the two small panels at the bottom. Most of the customization can be done with these two.
>> Drag any of the image and drop it into this program. It will automatically generate the ascii art for you.
>> You can also make some adjustments if required.
>> Draw a rectangle on the bottom right panel to crop the image in main ascii preview window.
>> Ascii size and rotation can be adjusted from the panel at the top.
>> If you want to make your ascii art more visible, adjust the color (alphabet selection) from the bottom left panel. This is what my ascii image looks like after adjustments.
>> Time to save our creation. Click on the save button. A dialog box will appear.
>> You can save it as text file that can be used with text areas anywhere. Or you can save it as an image file.
You can also make color selection. Choose whatever suits you.
And this is how you can convert any image to ascii art.
Next Stop! ASCII Text
To this point I am sure that you know what ascii art means.
What if we can write in ascii? This is getting awesome and awesome :)
>> Simply go to this website.
>> Choose from hundreds of fonts and styles.
>> Copy the text to use it anywhere.
And this is how you can brag about your marvelous creations :)
