Funky ASCII art
Long time pickle pal David Rader has painstakingly put together a list of ASCII codes for those hard core geeks out there looking to create some "ASCII Art".
I was a little shocked to find out that ASCII art is still out there, as I thought it'd died out following the age of the Commodore 64.
I was wrong.
Another surprise was that ASCII art is no longer just about naked ladies!

Getting a little 1990's style retro, here's Beavis:

But here's my personal favourite, Sponge Bob:

Proving that ASCII is for everyone, here's what a swollen pickles logo might look like had I decided to go in a different direction with my theme:

Now, if that has given you the motivation to go all out art school ASCII style I don't know what will!
P.S.
If you are disappointed that there were no ASCII naked ladies then check out this link (some artworks more detailed than others. Viewer discretion advised).
