	ASCII art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		ASCII art is used wherever text can be more readily printed or transmitted than graphics, or in some cases, where the transmission of pictures is not possible.
		ASCII art is also used within the source code of computer programs for representation of company or product logos, and flow control or other diagrams.
		Most ASCII art is created using a monospace font, where all characters are identical in width (Courier New is a popular font).

	r e v i e w
		ASCII art is an excellent modern representation of the Zen Aesthetic which has been predominant in Japanese culture for centuries.
		ASCII is essentially the molding of this empty space to evoke, though never clearly describe, an image, and this evocation is at the heart of Oriental Spirituality.
		Certainly, ASCII art is not a form of calligraphy, as the characters do not in and of themselves have any particular value, whereas the historical roots of Japanese characters are in "Shokeimoji," the early imitative drawings found in early Japanese life.

	Mona (ASCII art) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		In fall 2005, Avex Group Holdings has come under fire from fans and supporters of Mona and the variants for promoting and commercialising their own Shift-JIS art character, named Noma neko, which probably first appeared in the music video for "Koi no Maiahi", a Japanese release of the Moldovan band O-Zone's "Dragostea Din Tei".

	On ASCII Art
		ASCII art has become common only in the last decade or so, but has been around even before it was called by its current name.
		Line-style ASCII art is made primarily of thin characters, such as the parentheses, comma, period, slash, hyphen, underscore, and apostrophe.
		Grayscale art uses characters of different sizes when different light densities are required; thus, an M is used for a very dark part of a picture and a period, say, for a lighter part.

	BBC - h2g2 - ASCII Art
		ASCII art is art 'drawn' using the characters of the ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) character set.
		ASCII art is one of the most restricted media, and perhaps the closest to being 'finite'.
		A note on using other people's ASCII art: Almost nobody minds use of their art for almost any (non-commercial) purpose, but it is considered very bad form to remove the signature (usually two or three letters that are obviously not part of the picture), or worse, to claim it as your own work.

	[ The Sunny Spot ] ASCII-Art - ASCII-Art How To by Normand Veilleux (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		That is how I created three ascii pictures so far: the hand that showed "that close", the ying yang, and my own face.
		Of course at this point the ascii picture is still slightly rough, but at least you have the right proportions, etc. Now you could try to smooth it out by using the "weight distribution" technique described above and perhaps a printed version of one of the ascii pictures I have smoothed (for concrete examples).
		Nothing seemed to work, so I reverted back to my preferred style of ASCII drawing and to be true to it I did not add any shading to the face.

	Calista -- LEGO
		The ASCII Generator program did not care what my supply actually was, so it just used as many of each letter as it deemed necessary.
		I solved the problem by grouping certain letters together into groups based on their darkness (so, say, the W's and X's and H's were in one group at the dark end while the I's and L's and J's were in the lightest group).
		When the whole text file was thus filtered, I ended up with an ASCII image in which the darkness and lightness was pretty much the same as the original ASCII output, but I was guaranteed to have the necessary letters.
