Yep, it could do with a bit of stretch vertically but perhaps not 
x2.

My two screens have 80 columns in 9.5 inches and 26 rows in 7.25 inches
so the aspect ratio screen width/screen depth is not 2 to 1.

"Veronica Full Frontal" looks OK in asc2pic2.exe but she appears to 
put on considerable weight again in the conversion from Ascii to Pic
so she resembles her early full-figure smaller self-portraits where 
she had a fuller, more cuddly figure.

Bye,

Unfortunately since the program uses 1pixel per character in the text file,
it has to be x2 at least since you can`t put half of a pixel on the screen.

The conversion bit hasn`t changed much as you can see, I just bolted on the
MRF (Most Requested Features)

I hope you find it useful! :o)

Thankyou for your comments...
