# OK, Just for the people who werren't listening....
MY METHOD FOR DOING ASCII art.....
I take the image and make it one of three layers in an HTML document (Stretching it with a table as neccessary), With a preview of said document (Depending on the editor used) open, then in the OTHER TWO LAYERS, I type in (by trial and error) the characters that best cover the DARK PARTS OF THE IMAGE. This technique is almost as laborious as Doing it by eye, but provides more accurate results.
I DO NOT USE GENERATORS OR SCANNING PROGRAMS TO DO ASCII!

to make something that looks like the original at only 15x pixels is equally as tricky as making ascii

it looks really realistic? some - i went to the national portrati gallery the other week - almost look like photos.

so what i'm wondering is, did the painting ability of the world increase over time, or did people in tudor times have really fucked-up heads?

Did you ever see Rob's generator thing? It was very clever, made colour pictures out of conversations. Not sure where it went though. The point is, people know you did it and they think it's good - if it wasn't good they wouldn't've accused you of making it with software, y'see.

# Hurrah- a threadjack
Having problems with a Soundmax soundcard I brought on Saturday (only £40, but it's better than the mic input on my internal one). Everything's linked up right and so on, and the channel/noise tests work on them, so I know sound will come out, but no audio files will play through them- they'll run on all player programs, even the ones bungled bundled with the card itself, but I'm not getting any sound :\ this happened on Saturday and it just fixed itself suddenly, but now it won't and my CD player's on the blink, all it'll play is Jeff Buckley (not that I'm complaining about that actually).

And I'm burning Torment CDs to sell, supprisingly high amount of buyers so far :)
