These links are also on my ascii page.  Has anyone found any others?

Converters 
-----------------------------------------------------
CHARAC     Version 2.0         239 kb 
http://www.connect.usq.edu.au/students/q9523004/charac21.exe
Converts BMPs to ascii, for WINDOWS. I forget the page where I found
this ... so I
have linked it to my page. Although there seem to be a few bugs,
(written for
another language or somethin), this is my one of choice.

Ascii Art Generator     Version 1.0         110 kb 
http://www.connect.usq.edu.au/students/q9523004/asciiart.zip
Converts BMPSs to ascii, for WINDOWS. I don't know where I got this
program
from either. The only problem with this program is the ascii art it
creates is
enormous!
