That's pretty much for a quick giraffe that I just did while writing
this letter. You can add more stuff like a tree and a bird on a
branch too:
O ) __.ii, \ | /
O ) (__," |% - (_) -
O ) | #% / | \
) | |%
O ) | #%
O ) # |%

How's that for a happy little scene? :-) I etched my initials on
the bottom of the tree. *grin*
Just practice and practice and you'll get the hang of it. Try to
learn techniques from other people's artwork (Felix Lee's cats are a
good example). It'll help you learn how to orientate yourself and
how to best use some of the characters. Hope it goes well for
everyone. Let's see some more creative activity on the newsgroup.
You _can_ do it!

Daniel

To follow this tutorial you will need to
download and install JavE.
http://www.jave.de/
JavE is a free Ascii Editor and I could save
a few hours work by using it.

I first made a gif-to-ascii conversion with JavE.
The quality didn't really matter because I was about to change every
single character later anyway.
Have a look at the original picture.
The idea behind this was to set the overall shape of the drawing.
This is the raw conversion.
