To put it bluntly, when choosing pictures, look for pictures without too many details. The clearer the color blocks, the better. For example, if you see a picture and you think it can be put together in half a day, then there should be no big problem using bmp2ascii. When selecting pictures, you should consider the possibility of using color block diagrams rather than the possibility of using software. Directly take out the part you want in the drawing tool and create a new file Because bmp2ascii requires bmp, I only need the tools that come with windows. My machine can no longer install PS. Got it Just remove the unnecessary parts, such as the irrelevant background, with an eraser or a brush. You can save it now. Remember to save it as a 16-color bmp. The default one seems to be 256. That is not good. After saving it to 16 colors, you will find that the picture is terrible, but you can be sure that the boundaries are still clear. If the boundary is not clear, it means the picture was not selected properly or the previous processing was not enough. Try it again. Now in front of you are some very distinct color blocks and some small lines. Don't worry about the lines. Use a paint bucket to dye those blocks the color you want. For example, I dyed pucca’s sallow face at that time into light gray Because we selected 16 colors before, all the colors you use now are the colors that can be used in ansieeditor later. Once all the color blocks are pleasing to the eye, they can be sent to bmp2ascii for processing. There is a problem with color selection. Remember to only select the colors you used when drawing earlier. Selecting more than one will only affect the quality of the graphics and cause more noise. After the conversion, if you feel that the graphics are crumpled into a ball, you can increase the conversion ratio appropriately. Then I used Ansieditor to edit, and I relied more or less on experience. The attitude that needs to be corrected here is that bmp2ascii is an auxiliary tool and is only used to save trouble. Instead of doing nothing at all, bmp2ascii can ensure the proportion of graphics. This saves you the tediousness of drawing against the grid lines. As dntx said, there is no need to modify the edges of pucca's head. The output from bmp2ascii is the first draft of the oil painting. It is just a few lumps of paint piled on the canvas and must be revised before the work can be produced. In fact, pucca's whole body is converted, but because the clothes should all be bright red It turns out that pucca's sleeves in the graphic are slanted. As a result, the black gaps are very large and there are many dark red patches. So I followed my own habits and changed to use As for the hands, even adding solid circles to bmp2ascii is useless. So just delete the converted piece and add a small circle Garu's hands are different because they are wearing gloves. They are larger than Pucca's hands and they use arcs. In order to match these three arcs, the tail of the sleeves was specially changed into a triangle. These pictures are relatively small, which directly prevents the use of pure color block pictures. As for which symbols to use... I have some experience in them. It’s important to try more When people face life and death, money, reputation, and status will all be gone. Only love will stay with our souls forever... Source: Sun and Moon Guanghua bbs.fudan.edu.cn [FROM: 10.85.47.108]
