ASCII Me

Excuse me for a moment, I seem to have come over all ASCII

Tee hee. I'm old enough to remember walking the corridors at a big British car company (way back when England had a motor industry - that dates me, for sure), seeing the tacked up pages of greenbar paper, daisy-wheel printed with ASCII representations of film stars, cartoons, and even terrible pr0n.

Now you too can have your own photo or other image file rendered into ASCII art. Clicky.

[UPDATE: Friend of mine tells me he can't figure out that picture above. Squint, for goodness sake. Feh. Kids these days.]
