Mono-spaced type has been all but removed from places on the internet, so it’s no surprise larger scale ASCII art isn’t common anymore. But have any of you made such stuff way back when, or perhaps more recently for nostalgic fun?
I made this at the end of 2022 when I realized Notepad++ was mono-spaced by default, and wanted to try creating my sona. Text is an interesting medium to work with, it reminds me of pixel art in a way due to the constraints. That and for the first time in my life I found a use for the insert key, absolutely amazing.
Thank you for this pdf, now I entirely understand! Here is the result from this mystery, which I curiously typed out to see what would come of it. Initially I thought it was a house with a large chimney, bellowing smoke in a few directions, but apparently it’s a Dutch windmill! After hearing the answer in the following issue I could see the fan blades and the size made a lot more sense lol.
