Convert A Photo To ASCII Art

Eric Richards — Mon, 08 Oct 2007 08:04:20 +0000

Remember the days when ASCII art was all the rage? Well, most of you probably don’t but thats OK. Here’s something that will bring back memories for us older folks and it’s from Photo2Text.com. Using their online application you can create your own ASCII art based on a photo you upload. Here’s something I created.

Once you upload your image,

create a unique name for it. Once this is done you have two options to modify the image:

Brightness Adjustments
Character Set

Please note, black and white photos seem to work the best and the file size has to be less than 200k.

After making any changes, you can then proceed to download the image. Remember, this is ASCII art so the file that will be generated is a text file.

Here’s a bonus for you Firefox users out there. There’s a Firefox extension called Photo to text Converter which integrates this functionality into the browser. Enjoy!

Photo Morph Images Of Yourself

Here’s a fun site to visit called Perception Laboratory. It’s not a fancy looking web site, but you will enjoy it! You can morph a portrait of yourself instantly online.

Check out the slideshow, it starts from the original image and rolls through the various morphs I did. It only took 10 minutes to create these morphs.

When you get to the site, the first thing you do is click a link to upload a portrait of yourself.

Next you check three boxes to best describe yourself, then you place two green circles on your eyes and a green oval on your mouth. From there you get a drop down menu with 16 different morphs to choose from. The morphs range from a baby to old person, drunk to apeman to several different classic painters, you can change your nationality as well. You will achieve the best results if your photo is a straight portrait, with your face taking up most of the image area.

One last note, they do provide a save function, but it didn’t work on my computer which is a PC. A friend of mine uses a Mac and had minor problems with saving. If you run into that problem, just take a screen shot and copy and paste your morph into a photo editor such as Photoshop. Then you can save it as a high res image.

You can use them for anything. I’m choosing to use mine as avatars for my Yahoo Instant Messenger and my profile default picture for myspace. Here’s what a normal photo would look like. HAVE FUN!

So you want to play games huh?

Using pictogame.com you can create a variety of mini-games that you can share with friends. You can upload these games to your blog, friendster.com, mypsace.com and a variety of other social networking sites. It’s simple to use. I created this in about 5 minutes. Just click the blue play button to start.

To play this game just click on an image that adjoins the white block in the puzzle. The image you select will be moved into that area and other images will adjust accordingly. I’m sure you will get the idea.

There are a variety of games you can create. A game called “I Kick You” which allows you to kick an image of a person is also integrated into Facebook.com, a popular social networking site. From within Facebook you can “Kick” your own friends as well as see who was kicked you. Very interesting.
