Another generator, my posts are a bit 1-D at the moment. This one is truly text though. It takes an image and outputs ASCII. I came across this when I was looking at some source code (that if I am honest I don't have much of a clue about since I don't know much about ASP.NET) on [The Code Project].
For an example I took an image of my mate Tom (looking like a gangster) and converted it (there are loads of options):
Image:
The output ASCII as dots (ok they are small and I guess not far off pixel sizes - well probably quite a bit but give the same effect only on a large scale), it is an image because the ASCII was very large and this was the faster option for displaying on my site (it also didn't display correctly due to my style sheet, if you don't believe me just give it a go):
Oh and here is the site: [ASCII-Generator]
