I saw something catchy the other day, and I thought I would share it.
ASCII Art
For those who doesn’t know it, ASCII Art is about using the standard ASCII characters to resemble images or pictures, and it was -at the beginning- used by owners of printers that lacked graphics ability, so they had to use characters in place of graphic marks.[1]
But then, for it’s style or ease of implementation across a wide range of platforms (Basically plain text support is the only requirement), ASCII Art got the attention of (hackers and/or computer geeks) such as me :D
The last one “High ASCII” style is usually found in the .nfo files that are included in Warez software packages, smilies such as “:)” are also considered ASCII Art…
