15 How can I make Gray Scale pictures? |
You can make them from scratch if you are a very good ASCII |
artist. An easier way is to use a converter program. There's |
ASCGIF, Gifscii (with versions for many systems), ANSIrez, |
"ansicv22", GIF2ANSI, and "gif2txt" for the PC. |
There's also the HyperCard stack called "asciipicter". It allows |
you to draw a picture, and convert it to ASCII art. This is for the |
Macintosh. |
These programs make an ASCII pic from any GIF (Graphics |
Interchange Format) image (or image you can convert to a GIF). Most |
converters require the GIF to be in 87a format. GIFs in 89a format, |
must be converted to 87a format first. |
The exception to the GIF converters is a bitmap converter for |
Windows called Pixel Characterizer (version 0.5) by Shi Y Chen. |
