ASCII art

Old School Stylee, or , I feel all pixilated.

















You can see it in its full glory here. Remember getting them done in shopping centres in the 70s? Turning your photos into text was as sexy as technology could get. It was the heighth of sophistication!

You can get yours done right here (via Photojojo)

(I wish I could upload it to Flickr, but it's in Notepad. It prints off on too many pages too.)

Paste your screendump into Paint, select the picture bit and save it as a jpg, then you can upload it to flickr.

I love ascii art! I'm going to do mine right now.

PS: lovely to see you too - sorry about the miniature cheeksterboy of Romo re: chicken pox! Oh dear. too much excitement I fear.

I've never seen this sort of thing before, although this does make you an absolute mix of the Mona Lisa and Venus Rising From the Sea.

I used to have ASCII Snoopy calendars when I was a compute operator on a mainframe. We printed them on lineprinters and they took ages to print so we had to do them at night when no-one needed print-jobs.

Post it up, RoMo, do...

Ah, BiB, you say the nicest things. You should try it.

Llewtrah - ASCII Snoopy calenders! I want one!
