It really depends upon the person, I guess.
Most of us on alt.ascii-art do it the "hard"
way -- text editor, keyboard, and imagination.   There are some programs around
but the results are not all that great (IMO) and
you will have to manually play around with the images
so that it will look decent.
I don't use a program, so I can't refer you to
any.. except for FIGlet (for words).

I see that the FAQ has just been posted.
Give it a read.  Welcome to the group.
