Your own Images to ASCII arts application - Part I (Introduction)

NEW!! Executable project is @ http://code.google.com/p/image-to-ascii/


Hi.. :) I talked a bit about ASCII arts from my previous posts. I also presented some amazing online applications which let us convert our images to ASCII arts. I thought of implementing my own application of that kind. Not for any special thing but for my interest and to share knowledge. I'm planing to build the application as a fully open source one and I will implement using java. Once the application development is done I  will host it somewhere for the use of every one.  


In a nut shell what I'm going to do is as follows. Turn Mona Lisa in to a writable format  ;)) .




























Here we will cover some of the fundamentals of Image processing and java programming.  Since I'm not using any special libraries it will be easy for you all. As my previous experiences I know configuring things is not happy at all. That is a one reason for not using any third party library. The other one is since this is an application where it covers the basics it is good to work in a lower level. Be with me. We are going to change the history of ASCII arts :D :D :D....
