Highlight all of the text, it should be a jumbled mess and not look like the image at all, copy it. Don't delete anything else or the image will not align properly. This will skew the image but is important in order to format it correctly. The text should now be all lined up and the image should not be skewed.Īfter every line of text should be a single space, delete each space starting from the bottom and going up.

The 'Invert the Output' button can be useful as well if you want to switch the background and foreground from light to dark or vice versa.Īfter you are satisfied with the image, highlight all of the text, right click, and copy it. Play around with the levels, brightness, contrast, and dither in the box on the bottom left until the result looks good to you. Keep the 'Ramp' on Auto for the best results.

However, make sure the width is either 46 or 47 depending on the height as I mentioned before. It is good to stretch the image vertically by increasing the height independently of the width because Steam will squish the ASCII text back down a little bit. Press the 'x' button in between the length and width to change one freely of the other. In the top right where it says 'Size' change the width to 46 if the height is longer than 35, or 47 if the height is shorter than or equal to 35. Run the executable and double click the box in the bottom right to upload your image, or just drag and drop it in.
