Standard ASCII art is made with characters, such as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z \ | - _ + % @ < ; ! = # . , : > ( ] / & $ ^ ' ` " ~ ) [ { } ? * These characters are part of the ASCII (as - kee, America Standard Code for Information Interchange) set. This part of the ASCII set, is called the 'printable set' (7 bits, characters 32 to 126). There's also non-standard ASCII art, which contain 'contral codes'. ASCII art is popular, with several ASCII art groups on the various information services. Before computers, ASCII art was made on typewriters, teletype machines (5 bit), and was created typographically. There are even tee-shirts with the :-) smiley. 2 Why use ASCII art instead of a GIF? ASCII art is used because: o Standard ASCII art is the only type of graphics easily transmitted and instantly viewable on any terminal, emulation, or communications software. o If you can view text, you can view ASCII art (as it is made up of standard text characters). No conversion or special software required to view. Non-standard ASCII art (8 bit with control codes) requires that the file be saved and "cat'd". See Questions 20 and 21. o ASCII art is compact, a few K, not 20, 50, 100 or more K! 3 What is ASCII art used for? ASCII art is used for many things, like: o EDUCATION - A periodic table or molecular model for example. o CROSS CULTURAL COMMUNICATION - Pictures are international. o BBS & SERVER SCREENS - Login and logoff screens, MUDs, promos, etc. o ENTERTAINMENT - Like a birthday 'card', holiday greetings, invitations, congradulatory messages, children's picture stories, etc. o VISUAL AID - Such as a wiring diagram, floor plan, illustrated instructions, or flow chart, to eliminate a long involved explanation with a graphic. 4 What are the different kinds of ASCII art? The first four use the standard printable set, and can be viewed anywhere, anytime, on any equipment. They are: o Line drawing - Such as the stickmen above. This type of image is made using characters for their shapes. o Lettering - Large and styled, like the title "ASCII ART FAQ" above. o Gray Scale picture - These create the illusion of gray shades by using characters for their light emitting value (assuming you are viewing light characters on a dark background). For example: $@B%8&WM#*oahkbdpqwmZO0QLCJUYXzcvunxrjft/\|()1{}[]?-_+~<>i!lI;:,"^`'. Lighter <- viewing light characters on a dark background -> Darker Darker <- viewing dark characters on a light background -> Lighter o 3-D images - They can be viewed by people with similar vision in both eyes. You try to focus as if you are looking at the back of the monitor. The image should pop into focus and create a 3-D illusion. Other 3-D images are viewed by putting your nose on the monitor glass. See ASCII Art Resources for info on where to get 3-D programs. Other forms of ASCII art using the standard printable set include the following four: o Geometric Article - Text is formed into interesting, meaningful shapes. o Picture Poem - A geometric article that is also a poem. See the swan in the examples in ASCII Art Resources and ASCII Art Reference (the Web version of the FAQ). o Page Making - Text and graphics are intermixed, as in a magazine. o Picture Story - A story told with accompanying ASCII pictures. Created using ASCII art page making techniques. There are also non-standard types of ASCII art which cannot be viewed immediately upon receiving. They contain 'control codes' for color or animation. They must be 'uuencoded' to be posted or emailed. For further information, see Question 19. The three types of non-standard ASCII art are: o Animation - You see an animated image produced by a sequence of changing ASCII pictures. Animation speed depends on the system you are on, and modem speed, if used. "ANSI" (American National Standards Institute) escape sequences can be found in ASCII Art Resources and ASCII Art Reference (the Web version of the FAQ). o Color Graphics - You can view color ASCII pics, if you have a color screen and ANSI color compatible software. Check to see if your software supports ANSI color, and how it is enabled. o Color Animation - For an example of color and animation together, take a look at the file called "Vortex" in the Scarecrow's FTP site. Examples are in ASCII Art Resources and ASCII Art Reference (the Web version of the FAQ). But wait, there are other kinds of ASCII art: o Overstrike Art - It contains carriage returns without line feeds at times. The print head can overstrike a line on the paper that has already been printed on. This allows for darkening, and for placing different characters at the same place on the paper. This kind of art is obviously only printed. o Srcoll Animation - This is an animation that is made to be viewed by scrolling down. The image plays out as the screen is redrawn with the next 'page' of the image. 5 What is the best way to view ASCII art? For best results in viewing ASCII art, try: o A 'non-proportional' font, also called a 'mono-spaced' font. This is a font that displays the same number of characters per inch, no matter what the actual width of the characters. If you are viewing with a mono-spaced font, the two lines below should appear the same length. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM If they don't look the same length, try another font. Names to look for on various systems include: Monaco, Courier, Courier New, Video Terminal, System, TTY, VT100, Screen, Terminal, FixedSys, Line Printer, etc. o A small, say, 9 point font, will help to increase the apparent resolution, and the illusion of gray scale images. o Viewing from a distance of a meter or more. o Using light characters on a dark background. Many ASCII pictures are meant to be viewed light on dark. This allows the artist more control over the light. Also, you see less glare than you would from a light background. And in some instances: o While most gray scale pics are made to be viewed light characters on a dark background, some will be made to view dark on light. This is because they are meant to be printed with dark ink on light paper. Use dark characters on a light background, or print them out. o While most ASCII pics are made to be viewed on a monitor that displays 80 characters across, some ASCII pics are wider, say, 81 to 132 characters across. They are meant to be printed. Use a small, say, 4 point type, and view dark on light, or print them out. o While mast ASCII art is either ready to view, 'cat' or print, you may find art that has been saved as a picture in a bitmap, EPS, GIF, or other binary format. These must be viewed or printed with the appropriate software. There are a few important things to remember when making, viewing, or talking about an ASCII art image. And they're obvious but almost always forgotten. o Even though different fonts may all be mono-spaced, they ARE different, and can make a picture LOOK different. Some artists may mention the font the picture was made with. o A font may be serif or sans-serif (serifs are the little feet on the characters). The ascenders and descenders may be straight or curved. And characters may be wide or narrow. o The weight, or heaviness of characters can vary. Serifs can make them look heavier. Often effected by weight inconsistencies are symbols like: # $ @ o Shapes can vary too: The more consistent shapes are: - / \ The more inconsistent shapes are: ~ ^ * & | ' [ ] < > 0 l y o Fonts from different countries may have different characters in them. Characters that may not appear in a font are: ^ ` # | { } ~ \ [ ] $ @ o Different systems display text differently. If you look at a picture on a terminal at a Unix site, and then bring it home and view it on a Mac, it will look different. On the Mac, it will be displayed shorter top to bottom. In other words, it will have a greater aspect ratio. Even though it contains the same number of lines. See ASCII Art Resources and ASCII Art Reference (the Web version of the FAQ) for an aspect ratio chart. 6 How can I learn to make ASCII art? Unfortunately, there aren't many text books on the subject. :-) A good way to learn is to study how an artist has made a picture. What characters are chosen. How are the characters laid out? How is a texture made? You can also modify existing art. Take a piece of art you think could be improved. Make a copy. Now work on it. When you are good at that, try to improve a really good pic. Diddle a GIF conversion. Then see if you can fix a damaged file. Now take some small pics and put them together into a big composite image. If you're working from scratch, the following may help you: o Decide what you want. Block out the sizes ond shapes of things so you can get the proportions right. Do it now, not later, you'll save work. o Add detail. Concentrate on the focal point and important parts of your drawing. ASCII art is low definition, so you'll have to make the pic big if you want detail or real smoothness. Take a tip from master cartoonists, just try to suggest things, don't try to replicate them. Too much detail can end up looking confusing. o One of the biggest helps is knowing how to shape things. For example, you can curve a horizontal line with just: _ - " _____-------"""""""--------_____-------""""""" o Slanting vertical lines is easy. These four line are all made with a few characters, like: / , _ - ' " / ,' ,-' ,_-'" / ,' ,-' ,_-'" / ,' ,-' ,_-'" / ,' ,-' ,_-'" / ,' ,-' ,_-'" / ,' ,-' ,_-'" o Then there's smoothing, also called "anti-aliasing". This is where special care is taken to use characters for their shapes. With this technique, you can smooth out a font, or an object like the one below. Notice how the sides on the object are curved using: d b ( ) Y XXXX d88b XXXXXXXX <- Turn this d888888b XXXXXXXXXX (88888888) XXXXXXXX Into this -> Y888888Y XXXX Y88Y Popular fills are: 8 M H o Use areas of characters for patterns, tones, and contrast. For example, in this flower, notice the density of the letters subtlely change to form the petals. I would like to see this colorized. ___________ [___________] {=========} .-' '-. / \ /_________________\ | _ _ _ | ||\(_ |_)||_)||\ || ,.--. ,.--. ||~\_)| || \|| \|| // \ \ // \ \ |_________________| jgs \\ \ / \\ \ / | | `'--' `'--' '-----------------' _.-^^---....,,-- _-- --_ < BOOM! >) | | \._ _./ ```--. . , ; .--''' | | | .-=|| | |=-. `-=#$%&%$#=-' | ; :| _____.,-#%&$@%#&#~,._____ .----------. adult bedroom toy.
