Looking for grayscale

Looking for grayscale

alt.ascii-art · 4 messages · 20 Oct 2004 - 26 Oct 2004
I'm finishing my ASCII art tutorial (which is more like a reference or FAQ, though and yes,
I'm aware that there are several such things already in existence, which is why I'm making
mine different. I'd need a grayscale picture I could use for showing people what grayscale
ASCII is like, but I'm not going to use a converted one. The ones I find on the Internet
are mostly huge in size or crappy in quality. I'm sure there are plenty to be found, they
just don't come up by using the words "grayscale" or "greyscale" as a Google query. I only
draw lineart and solid art myself. So if anyone has a decent quality hand-made grayscale
ASCII that isn't too big or knows where I could get some (preferably from  someone who has
working contact info available), I'd be grateful.

I didn't know one could put all but 9 words of a paragraph into 
parentheses... <g>

I think you forgot to terminate your first set :)

I have an illness that causes cognitive difficulties such as missing
words and sometimes punctuation. I think everyone understood the post
anyway. It doesn't seem very useful to post a follow-up to a question
without having any kind of an answer to provide, does it.
