So I made a Python-based repl to convert images to ascii using PIL (pillow), it was actually pretty simple and not difficult to do, but please feel free to check it out and like and follow mee :)).

Nice. Love how the PIL library makes doing something like this take 42 lines instead of the hundreds early versions of this would take.

no it was inspired by @GliQue.
This is great, thanks for sharing @Sky .
I wonder if someone wanted to try and extend this to automatically take the Replit user’s avatar and convert to ASCII art?

I’ll add that feature after I finish eating dinner.

I do have a question, though: do you plan on giving out more usernames anytime soon? I’m interested in acquiring a specific username.
Hi @Sky I take it you mean the Replit usernames rather than the Replit Ask usernames?
If so I’m not the person you are looking for.
That’s not ASCII but still VERY COOL!

AFAIK no-one dishes out usernames, but if there were an issue with usernames / locked accounts etc I would suggest contacting support. Hope this helps!

Did you know that converting an image to colored “ascii” art in the terminal takes 10 - 15 lines of code :dance:
