I decided today that I would do a tesselation in ascii.  I just had no
idea when I started that it would turn out this lame.  As a
conselation it makes a really bad steriogram as well.

I got a better idea.  Who can do better?  And please don't do fish.  I
went with fish out of desperation.  If there is one thing that has
been done too many times in tesselation it is fish.

       I tried doing some Escher stuff a few years ago, as wallpapers 
for X. That might prove a fruitful mine to, err, mine. 32 pixel square 
isn't a lot of room for a picture, but 80x80 (columns | pixels) should 
give a lot more room.
       Where's my book of Escher ... pilfered by the daughter, it seems.

I had entertained the idea of doing some seahourses instead of the
fish.  Nice job on yours.

Your best is very nice.  Not one of the normal subjects for a

Thanks!  I think I could have balanced out the arms and such more if I
really tried, but i kind of like the mutantness of the creature and also
the asymmetry makes for a more interesting shape.

Wow, NICE. I like how the ridges on the backs gives it a quasi-3d feel.

Ditto.  As I mentioned when I started this thread almost any ascii
tesselation creates a steriogram to give you a real 3d feel.  It isn't
that great but if you were to do differing shades for each of the
motifes the effect would be hieghten.

   Maybe it's not as "bad" as you think!  "Bad" is relative!  One
might say that "bad" is in the eye of the beholder!  In my case, I
see chessboards in this kind of thing.  But then I see chessboards
everywhere, what with having been an inventor of chess variations and
designer of chessboards for umpteen decades.  (As they used to say
in New York, that and fifty cents will get me a ride on the subway.
I hear that now it's a dollar-fifty.)
  
   Your design reminds me of some ascii artwork chessboards I whipped
up many years ago but never "published" anywhere.  I'm not sure how
much of it I posted here, but if readers will forbear some ascii art
that's much lamer than the fish above, I'll post it here now.  If
some is a repeat, my apologies, but these days I think we can use all
the legimitate ascii art activity we can get.  See following postings.

With as quiet as this group is I don't think we can complain about the
lamness of an ascii art.  I would say post away but I see you already
have.

Not a tesselation, but a repeating pattern of mine. I drew the original
on paper and then taped it next to the monitor to translate the shapes
into ASCII. Took me a couple of hours, and then someone accused me of
using a program to make it. (I do use sacii art generators sometimes,
but this was not one of those cases.)

This is made from a repeating ascii art tile 27 columns wide. This
means that it is ever so slightly too large to get three across the
page, but I cropped it slightly.

That is a very nice looking knot pattern. I have dozens of celtic knot
drawings on paper.  Before the days when I had a portable electronic
device to keep me busy when I should have been working I used to draw
knot patterns all the time.  I keep telling myself I am going to scan
them one day but I never do.  I have done a few in ascii art but they
never turn out as good because I keep wanting to use a line style.
Maybe I should try the style you did above when I have more time.
