What is ASCII? 

That stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. Each letter is assigned a number, which makes it easy to transfer data from one computer to another. Read more here.

How can you create an ASCII Selfie?

@mhawksey https://  Martin Hawksey @mhawksey suggests   idevelop.ro/ascii-camera/  which uses the camera on your computer

Karen Richardson‏ @witchyrichy   suggests the iOS app AA Asciilizer 

Under Taker‏ @Untertacker  suggests glassgiant.com/ascii/ 

Bill Smith‏ @byzantiumbooks suggests  http://www.text-image.com/convert/ 

Chuck Pearson‏ @ShorterPearson   suggests   http://picascii.com 

What picture did I use to convert to ASCII ? 

On my back porch:

Another tool I used is a Unit Converter because I didn't know what width the pixels compared to characters for the image creators.

Now you too can go forth and create ASCII selfies today!
