BG_ASCII
BG_ASCII is an interactive ASCII graphic tool. It can create color, halftone or black and white ascii pictures from image files (supports many image file formats - bmp, jpg, gif, ico, pcx, pcd, tiff and some other) and also can create monocolor or gradient color artistic ascii text. You can save your work as plain text, bmp image file or color html page. Using desktop hotkey you can create artistic ascii text within any windows aplication (this is very useful to add e-mail signatures or commentary to program code). Ascii art picture can be inverted, flipped, rotated, cropped. You can resize and crop image, adjust black and white levels, change foreground, background and halftone characters, adjust fontfaces and etc. New in version 1.3: 1. Color html - you can create color ascii/html art pictures 2. Desktop hotkey - using hotkey you can create artistic ascii art text within any win aplication (this is very useful to add signatures to e-mail and commentary to program code) 3. Ascii art text function - you can invert, flip, rotate, crop text. 4. Save function - you can save your work as plain text, bitmap image or color html page. Our Review: Yay for Boris! This is cool program that will take a JPEG image and convert it into a whole lot of lines of text which if you blur your eyes and squint a bit will look like the JPEG, you really have to see it to believe it! It will also print lines of text in any font you like in ascii and save to html. Yay!
