Photos as text art
ASCII art represents an image using characters of different densities — from dense symbols for dark areas to spaces for light ones. This converter samples your image's brightness and maps each region to a character, producing text art you can paste into terminals, code comments, chats or README files.
Tune the detail and style
Increase the width for more detail, or pick a character set — from classic punctuation ramps to solid block characters — to change the look. Invert the mapping when you'll display it on a dark background. It all runs in your browser, so your images stay private, and you can copy the result or save it as a text file.
