Firmly in the ‘useless but cool’ category, meet asciiconvert.com ! Simply navigate to the url above and either choose a local file or give it the URL of one already uploaded and off it goes to do its thing. There are some settings you can play with should you be that way inclined, but I’ve found just using the default ones work surprisingly well.

Check it out !

Have a play and let us know if you find any pictures that make a particularly good ASCII image !
