If you use a program please e-mail me the name of >the program. Most people "just look and draw"; also doodle around, modify existing drawings, and copy parts/techniques from them. Very large complicated asciis may have started life as a photograph or original pencil drawing put under a "grid" and redrawn as ascii (unfortunately, just converting grey scale values into different shades won't give you prposefully drawn shapes and edges: you end up redrawing the ascii from scratch traced over the old drawing). @@@ @@@ @("} {")@ @(.(.)\__ __/(.).)@ @@@) ( """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" ) (@@@ ( . ) dav...@xemu.demon.co.uk ( . ) \ ) / http://www.xemu.demon.co.uk \ ( / \\.-' ,' /index.html ', `-_// // ~-~ """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" '~ \\ / \ "Consciousness is a product of the brain no more & no less than earwax is a product of the ear"-Martin Hunt on a.r.s

-> What do you use to draw ascii art? Do you just look and "draw" or do you -> use a paint program? If you use a program please e-mail me the name of the -> program. hmm, how about just a normal ms-dos edit or pcbedit (it's a simple full-screen editor which understands pcboard @ macros, color codes.) anyway whatever.

I've been hella impressed with a mIRC Add-on (only thing bad about it is u
need mIRC), it takes a bmp image and makes it into all letters with
appropriate colors (on HTML page)..I've uploaded it if u use IRC and want to
give it a spin:

Your best choice is probably JavE <http://www.jave.de> . It can do a lot more
than just convert images - it's a complete ascii-art painting package.
