wonderful!

this reminded me of the classic "lenna" image used in compression and
image processing research:

  http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~chuck/lennapg/lenna.shtml

I don't have the prowess to render her into ascii-art myself, but it
would be a very appropriate picture to do, I think.

Well they are both playboy images.  I just find that they take the
best damn pictures for ascii art.  And bulk automated downloads from
the playboy news groups makes the whole process much better than
having to hunt for workable images.

I will put the lenna pic in my to_asciify folder for some other day.

This pic was based on an angel boris pic from I think 1999.

Perhaps I should have used a conversion algorithm. It seems somehow wrong to
asciify this picture by hand; it's probably been processed automatically
more times than any other picture.

I never use one.  When I first started out I did and then I would
touch it up from their.  But I found that It limited the effect and
ruined any chance for ones own stile to come out.  Of course I was
using some hacked up scripts I had writent to automate the process via
convert (which is part of the Image Magick software program)

The only thing I use now is a transparent aterm, emacs inside of that
and what ever image I am converting put as the wallpaper with
Esetroot.


I posted a screen shot of what it looks like to one of the binaires
groups a while back and I could do another example if someone wants.

Ascii-art is far too much hard work for me to forget to post something. :)

Checking google groups, it seems I did use JavE - but only for the watermark
feature. That's probably the best of both worlds.

That's a very good idea (IMO, s/emacs/vim/). I'll have to switch from xterm
though. I'm still waiting for a complete XRender implementation...

Its cheaper than tracing paper.  And more effective too as you get
better transparency, less sticky stuff on the monitor and better
accuracy.
