I just used "S" to make a rough outline and then smooth it out with ( . ' ` ~ " ). The conversions I post have dollar signs instead of Ss. But the conversions I DO do are done with DOSGifscii21.exe (you can probably find it with YAHOO or ALTAVISTA, or it's probably in the FAQ for this group). Those are usually very big because of the way I draw them before converting. I draw something in a 80 pixel wide picture by whatever length down, and convert it with that program, the square pixels turn rectangular in ASCII and elongate the pic. I haven't found a converter that will do something small that will fit on one screen without a lot of tweaking and diddling with the final picture.

I copied it from the cover of an old comic book that was shown in the coffee table MARVEL book. It also had Peter Parker walking away from the large Spidey in the book, but that would have been difficult to do in the original artwork. You can view the originals here: ftp://members.aol.com/lester5374/ansi/ansmenu1.gif ftp://members.aol.com/lester5374/ansi/ansmenu2.gif ftp://members.aol.com/lester5374/ansi/ansmenu3.gif Note to CJ, this is the format of the conversions, but I had to strip off all of the colors except for black and white, and then reversed the colors for a negative image before I put it through the converter. These are 80 pixels across, but you have to make them 79 in the conversion because it will line wrap in a lot of viewers. -- .-~~-.

She evidently did not relish the idea of copying the whole pic out by hand as she normally does. In the 7 line version though it would pass as a dinosaur, possibly a Stegasaurus? with a very long donger which has probably very recently been in action? But no long extension of the donger needed for this activity? . . / `. .' \ .---. < > < > .---. | \ \ - ~ ~ - / / | ~-..-~ ~-..-~ \~~~\.' `./~~~/ .-~~^-. \__/ \__/ :(O O) \ / / \ \ | vv | `._.' | __L_ \/~~~/ \____/ / } | \ \__/ ~. | / \__________\ `. ,~~| -cfbd- ~-.__| /_ - ~ ^ - - - \\. `..-' f: f: after || / | | \\ ~ -. `-. _||_||_ unknown ||_____| |_____| \\ ~ - . _ _ _ _ _> ~~~~~~~\\~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Taking the piss" , /| / | / / | | / | | \_ | \__ \ __\_______ \ \_ | / \ \/ \ | | \ \| | \ \ | -Shanaka Dias- /\ \_ \ / | \__ ( ) \ / \ / |\\ / __\____ snd| , | /\ \ \__ | \_ \_/|\___/ \ \}}}\__| (@) ) \)\)\) \_\---\ \| \ \ \>\>\> \ /\__o_o) | / VVVVV \ \ \ \ \MMMMM oh bugger! \______/ _____ / | O O| /___|_|/\_ ==( | | (o)====(o) Pictures all have different stokes for different folks?

To men, sex is an emergency, and no matter what we're doing we can be ready in two minutes. Women, on the other hand, are like fire. They're very exciting, but the conditions have to be exactly right for it to occur.

Oh no, I didn't have to reduce the size of the pictures, the "ansmenu" pics above were all drawn in 80 pixel size, what I should have said was, during the conversion, you need to specify that the output be 79 lines instead of the 80 (if indeed the picture is 80 across) that I had drawn them in (originally, they were ment for ANSI conversion for BBSs I called).

Okay, here's the process: I draw the 80 pixel wide GIF, one time only, in a VGA paint program. To convert the GIF to ANSI I use a FREEWARE program called POSTER (it's the best I've ever used). To convert the same GIF to ASCII I have to strip all of the colors out of the picture (I usually draw the picture in black outlines and then color it in, so I don't have to re-draw anything because I already have the black lines there that make the picture). I use DOSGifscii21.exe (in the conversion, I specify the output be 79 columns - a leftover habit from BBSs). Actually, come to think of it, DOSGifscii21 has an option to reverse (make a negative picture) the ASCII during the conversion, so you can forget the bit about making a negative image before conversion. Now, to completely confuse you, I did this conversion that has nothing to do with what we are talking about, and I did it in a completely different way :) haha. I just copied and pasted into Email Effects (it's on my Christmas list this year, I hope Santa can shell out the 16 bucks for it). Of course, I diddled in the bottom part. . . . but in some other alternate Universe, I'm POSITIVE they are there. hahaha Conversion'`' ' ' ' :~``'':::;::;:;:::::::;::::: ' '' `'`' ' '' ' ''; ' ' ' :::::::::;:;:~;;: : '' ' ' ' ' '' :$@ ' ' '` `::;::;;::;:;:;:;; `: ' : '` ' ' ' ' ~#@@@@j ' '::;:;:;::;::;;;:;; `:`:'::`: : :`'``:@#@@@@@!
