Homer Simpson Drawn With Web 2.0-Style ASCII Art
boogi78 writes "Remember ASCII art? This is the Web 2.0 CSS version of ASCII art featuring Homer Simpson. Here is a CSS G.W. Bush. There's also an program that automatically converts jpegs into 'CSS images,' but it's a Windows executable. I found no sources for it, but I got it to work with WINE."

Original pouet thread which this spawned:
http://pouet.net/topic.php?which=5204&page=1
I fucked Ann Coulter. Hard. I fucked her in her tight slutty asshole and then I pulled my cock out and she sucked on it. She loves sucking on my cock once it's been in her tight asshole. I rammed her hard and fast as my throbbing meatpole stretched her butthole apart. Then I shoved my cock in her cunt and fucked her dumb brains out. The stupid slut kept screaming and telling me how much she loved being treated like a dirt fuckslave, a fucking cumslut, a whorish little fuckbunny. Then she begged me to let her lick my asshole. How could I refuse? I let her suck on my asshole as she flicked her tongue on it while jacking my throbbing cock. She wrapped her lips around my asshole and sucked it hard, flicking her tongue it, kissing it and licking it and moaning like the dirty cumslut whore she is. Then she reached back and took her cunt juices and rub it all around my asshole and proceeded to lick her love juices off my tight asshole. I bent her over and fucked her in her slutty butthole again, and then shoved my cock down her throat and facefucked her. I slapped her face with my cock and then shoved my dick back in her butthole. After a few minutes of buttfucking the bitch, I pulled me cock out. She sucked me clean and then proceeded to lick my asshole some more while jacking me off. The dirty filthy cumbunny fuckslave sure knew how to give a good rusty trombone. After a few minutes of expert rimming, I was ready to blow my load. I blew spurts of thick, hot, white, sticky cum all over her face. Thick sticky wads straight into her mouth. Cumming over and over. Thick ropes of cum arcing up high, streaming out and splattering all over her slutty face. She sucked out all my cum as I emptied my balls all over her. She then used my cock to rub my cum all over her face. It was an amazing fuck-session. Ann Coulter is an amazingly filthy slut and I encourage everyone to fuck her. Right now I have to slut so horny that I can ram that bitch anytime I want. Ann Coulter really is a spectacular cunt.
who'd care anyway? who wants to run that faggot linux shit? fags, that's who. fucking dick smoking fags getting pounded in the ass by other faggots.

So now using CSS and JavaScript is a criterion for "Web 2.0"? When will it end?

looks like the site FTA is down.
Looks just like the block art from Prodigy from back in 1990's. All this tech and we're back to the same place as 1995.

Yeah, those are ASCII characters.
It's a yellow blur that looks like something a five year old would make upon being first introduced to PaintShop.
But it's Web2.0, so it must be kewl.

Those line printers could be coaxed to kick out some interesting pictures. I found some on a cassette tape once while clearing out a cupboard, suitable for a Datapoint machine. I seem to remember I taught myself enough Datapoint assembler to be able to print them out.
I must have been desperate back then...
Once I was a four stone apology. Now I am two separate gorillas.
Serious, I've been here for a LONG time and I think I'll rack this into my noodle as being one of the lamest postings that have managed to slip through in a while.
At least the spam-link-bot posters are giving content that's interesting. This is just stupid.
I tried it on a 512x512 black and white jpeg, and it stops before it completes the image. What gives?

I SAID, !
The big advantage of this kind of graphic is that it scales up to a nice sharp anti-aliased image as the user increases the text size. Well, at least Homer did when I tried it.
But of course, properly implemented SVG would do that just as well. It just lacks the super-geekiness of using something in an unintended way to get a useful result. And, of course, this way might have better support in some browsers than SVG.
It needs Verdana from MS TrueType core fonts, so it doesn't work across multiple platforms. The link is slashdotted anyway. Here's a version that's still available: http://www.romancortes.com/blog/homer-css/

It's a comfort to know that when the Internet collapses, old-fashioned bulletin board systems will be ready.
Ahhh, posts about the Simpsons AND MacGyver on the front page at the same time. I can die now; order has been restored.
Interesting. In Firefox crtl+mouse wheel or ctrl++ to zoom text, as well as css image. Page zoom is different in IE7 (it has always zoomed an entire page, text and images).
See, you're using Web 1.0, so it's rendering Homer more like he was drawn in the early Simpsons cartoons.
I've been doing this in Web 1.0 for years.

I fear that our advertising overlords will use this to display advertising that I'd otherwise block. The next step in fighting advertising on the web? Block all ASCII charaters from being displayed!!! That'll fix those advertisers.
Along similar lines (but not as cool), D is for dolphin.
Woo hoo!!
ASCII art is still so great, especially on forums and such where it's too much hassle [or you aren't allowed] to post images.
If each mistake being made is a new one, then progress is being made.
If SVN was working in common browsers, that news would be boring.

Because the basic fact is no matter what you do to a turd - polish it, paint it, give it bling - it's still a turd, and there is nothing you can do about that underlying fact.
C'mon people Web 2.0 is just Web 1.0, its still just scripts, images and text.
How is it possible for something that is WEB 2.0 be only available under Windows or WINE? Seems like a contradiction in terms. I thought Web 2.0 was a new thing that was even more platform independent than ever before.
It's time once again for me to bask in my fleeting moment of USENET glory, when for a few brief shining months 18 years ago, it seemed like half the world was using my Simpsons ASCII art for their signature file.
that is pretty sweet :-) for any ol' ascii art enthusiasts, come check out #ascii on undernet.

Many of these vendors would have just written Windows clients/apps. I too prefer native apps, but untill the consumer market is more heterogenous, the likely alternative to web apps is native apps for a platform I don't like.
Of course, in a heterogeneous environment, the developers won't touch native clients with a teen foot pole...
XML is like violence. If it doesn't solve the problem, use more.

that javascript is not very human-parsable ... i have absolutely NO idea of what it's doing, and frankly, that scares me.
Does it render correctly on IE?

They build Homer Simpson sketching engines, but we still don't have decent business-oriented AJAX form widgets such as editable grid sheets and outline (tree) browser widgets. Building web forms is still stuck in 1982.
