Talk: STOP using gif2asc !!!

Talk: STOP using gif2asc !!!

Hey Boys and Girls,
        
        If you call yourself an ASCii ArTist, be original and creative!  
        Don't use tool like GIF to ASCii to convert drawings!  The pictures
        look unrealistic, <like a block of blurry stuff>, take up space,
        un-united characters all over the place....just...just disgusting!
        
        I hope I am not offending anybody, but I am really looking forward 
        to see real ASCii artists here, who knows how to imagine, how to 
        creat and how to DRAW!!  e.g. SCARECROW is a real artist! :)

Anyway, feel free to Respond, Attack or Second my opinion..
