ascii art program

First, I apologise if this is off-topic!

I've written a small program which can be used to convert Windows bitmap
files into ascii art text files. Despite what the FAQ for this ng said, I
couldn't find much about programs that already do this.

If you'd like to download it, pop along to www.asbury.demon.co.uk

As you'd expect from a automated program, the results are not always
brilliant and usually (particularly for small images) don't really compare
to hand drawn art, especially some that I've seen here :O) Nevertheless,
it's good if you need an ascii image of something and don't have the
time/energy to actually draw it.

The program has numerous options for varying width, height etc. of the
images, and can even be used to compile a number of bitmaps into an
animation using JavaScript and HTML.

Constructive comments would be much appreciated :O) (Flames wouldn't) I
apologise again if this is not really relevant here.
