If you are going to post ASCII-art _converted_ by a software, you should
say so. Many people must have been impressed when you said you did these
yourself. You fooled people. You pressed the button to convert the
picture, but didn't "draw" the art yourself. The people here are proud
of their work and take the time and effort to do things by "hand."
We don't want people wondering whether the pictures are really created
or merely converted.
If you're using a converter, let us know.
my 2 cents
