Frequently asked questions
Why does my ASCII art look stretched?
ASCII art relies on monospace fonts. If every line looks slightly taller than it should, it is simply your font; try a monospace font or a code editor to see the intended proportions.
Can I use ASCII art in my code or README?
Yes — text-based ASCII art pastes cleanly into README files, code comments and plain-text documents, and rights belong to no one for simple generated letter art.
What makes an image convert well to ASCII?
High-contrast, well-lit subjects with few small details work best. For faces, a slightly smaller width (60–100 characters) usually reads better than a huge one.
Is the image uploaded anywhere?
No. The image is read locally with your browser's canvas and never leaves your device.
