Well, most of the shaded ASCII pics are
created via use of conversion software.
There isn't much to clicking a button and
having your 'puter spit out an ASCII pic.
Usually the results need some manual
tweaks so that they look decent.  We've
talked about adding credit to such pictures...
There's been some debate as to whether
or not it ought to be considered "art" --
and/or  if the picture is generated by specialized
software, it is a creation of the person who
pushed the image through the process? or
is it a creation of the person who developed
the software?  or is it a creation of the person
who made the original gif/jpg image??
The simple answer is to not credit it at all...
Make sense?

Don't mistake me though.. there are some
people who create the solid style without
using conversion software.  The Dutch Dude
is one.  Susie Oviatt is another.  However
the majority of the nudie pics are conversions.
