TextPix is a website where you can find many text (ASCII) pictures to
send to your friends through email, ICQ, IRC etc.

Have fun!

Nice Site.... Nice pics.. Nice concept....

However, I prefer all pictures in one file to choose from... FOR THOSE
who like to have all the pictures in one file, here is a small VB CODE
to do just that.

Place a WebBrowser Control on the Form and rename it to WB1
Place a Command Button on the form, Paste this code on the
Form... QUICK AND DIRTY CODE...

----------------
Dim Done As Boolean, hFile, FileName
Private Sub Command1_Click()

 hFile = FreeFile
 Open "C:\TextPix.txt" For Output As hFile
 For a = 1 To 459
 DoEvents
 Done = False
 WB1.Navigate2 "http://textpix.com/" & a & ".htm"

 Do While Done = False
  DoEvents
 Loop
  Print #hFile, ".[SOP:" & a & "]"
  Print #hFile, WB1.Document.body.innerText
  Print #hFile, ".[EOP:" & a & "]"
  Print #hFile, "": Print #hFile, ""

 DoEvents
 Next 'a
 Close hFile
 MsgBox "DONE"
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Load()
'
End Sub
Private Sub WB1_DocumentComplete(ByVal pDisp As Object, URL As Variant)
 Done = True
End Sub

The Good:

- There are some decent ASCII pics here
- Several links to other ASCII sites
- It's... um... blue and green, like the ocean...

The Bad:

- I didn't see a single sig!  Anywhere!
- Too flashy for a text pic site, IMHO. Make's it too long to load.
- IE5.5 and up only?
- No sigs! Please, respect the artists!  Give them credit where it's due!

The Ugly:

- What the?!?

P.S. (It is by COMPLETE coincidence that my name appears under the "Ugly" section :)

I prefer art that hasn't been ripped off. You don't have a single
artist signature or name on any of the pictures you have used.
