Image to ASCII convertor

This program converts Image to ASCII text. It mainly uses PIL - Python Imaging Library and Easygui library.

I made this just for fun.

Installation

First download the all files from this github repository. And use the package manager pip to install Image to ASCII using requirements.txt

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

After installing from requirements.txt-

  • run the main.py file
  • select a image using the file open box
  • wait for your default browser to open a html file with your ASCII text

Note - Images with higher resolution take a few minutes.
