You're right. It is addicting:

I think finally I'll make myself an avatar!

@anonymous_user: Interesting choice of images...

Seeing Allan's avatar so big somehow made me want to check Samurai Champloo lol. Just checked the first episode and I liked it!

Is there any significance in the fact that you are at the top of that pile (he says studiously avoiding any references to trinities)?

GB is a kickass show! Loved it as a kid and still rewatch sometimes. The fight scenes are very energetic and crazily addictive.

Looks like the server is having trouble now. This is what happens when I try to convert an image to ascii:

Warning: fopen(tempfil.fil) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/lunatic.no/html/ol/img2aschtml.php on line 196

Warning: fputs(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /var/www/lunatic.no/html/ol/img2aschtml.php on line 197

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /var/www/lunatic.no/html/ol/img2aschtml.php on line 198
Invalid imageformat!

willxtreme · 2010-01-23 13:45:23

Oh yeah it always does that if you try to open from online source. Your best bet is to upload from your HD

Awesome tool! Here's what came out for my avatar.

[edited for thumbnailness + another picture]
<-- the fullview image looks a lot better than its thumbnail for this one (it's my recent wallpaper)

Everyone, please use thumbnails with links.

Thanks.

aview seems to be able to do the same thing, testing it now (will edit when I have tested). you can get it from aur.

Aview works, but I cant seem to get it to use colours, so everything is black and white.

Of course xyne have done something similar: http://xyne.archlinux.ca/info/tiv

Now its only a matter of time before this thread gets fully xyned.

libcaca comes with img2txt which does this kind of thing. But I guess each tool does it differently.

E.g. This is the output of img2txt for he Arch logo in the terminal...

not truly ASCII art but also looking great to me.

This morning i stumbled across this site. You can just upload an image and it looks pretty nice @ www.asciify.net
very nice ASCII image

moderator edit: Welcome to the forums. The image is too large. I have replaced it with a link for you. Please read Forum Etiquette: Pasting Pictures and Code and screenshot posting rules. Thanks. --fsckd
