Read the FAQ: http://studserv.stud.uni-hannover.de/~freise/ascii/faq.html 2. Try pictures with lots of straight lines first (rounded shapes are more difficult to make). For example: small trains, houses, your computer, a floor plan of your house or apartment, ... Here are some straight lines: 3/1 2/1 1/1 2/3 1/2 | | / / .' .' | | | / / .' | / / / .' .' 1/3 | | | / / .' .-' | | / / .' .' .-' | / | / / .' .-' 1/4 | | / / .' .' .-' _.-' | | | / / .' .-' _.-' 1/5 | / / / .' .' .-' _.-' _.--' | | | / / .' .-' _.-' _.--' 1/6 | | / / .' .' .-' _.-' _.--' __.--' 1/7 | | | / / .' .-' _.-' _.--' __.--' __..--' _.-' _.--' __.--' __..--' 1/8 _.--' __.--' __..--' __..--'' __.--' __..--' __..--'' __..--' __..--'' __..--'' -------------------------- 0 (ok, they're not quite "straight", but they're about as close as you can get with ascii characters) 3.
