Tijnema <tijnema@gmail.com> spake the following lore:
Convert image to fixed width + fixed height + default depth, then do
some work on it :P

Yeah, what work? Best of luck with getting a system to reliably
translate one Jell-o blob of an image into another accurately and
reliably. It's ASCII art time!
Say I have an image of a cigarette:
_______________________________
(_____(________________________@
Then, I morph the image so that it's SNAFU'd:
_______
/ \____ \_/ @/
/ / \_____/
( __/
Keeping in mind that it's ASCII art, you can still see the
similarities. A computer, with an actual graphical image, probably
wouldn't recognize it. It may instead see it as a snake, which could
initially look like this:
//==\\ =o~
<==// \\==//
Then matched with a selection of images that the user could pick
from, the snake is morphed to:
<============o~
To be a bit easier, I whipped up a quick example on the web. It's
just static images, not a working system, but you'll see what we're
getting at here:
