what a sick fuck

now try doing it again in pure CSS hehe

Unknown said...

So ... how do I as a viewer see if it is hand coded or it is a script running some kind of digitizing process of a image ?

None the less - it takes good skills to do either of them ;)

Unknown said...

What, it's just ASCII/ANSI art... I've seen far, far better with just the extended ASCII charset and ANSI color back in the halcyon days of the BBS, circa 1990...

I'd like to see how much time does the page needs to get fully loaded and rendered...

I'm sorry but how the heck does that work? He's not even spelling things right.

eg hright="1" in the tr tag (won't let me type html in the comment box)

Unknown said...

i don't believe it for a minute tbh...

Like the typo's though "heifht" ;o)

SICK, WTF, it's not ASCII nub. How much space would this picture html take? How did this guy change the colors so fast?

Anonymous said...

wow!, great work :)

Anonymous said...

Okay, those Japanese Anime fans are just way too strange! Another, I just did it to see if I could type of things....

As for changing the colours, probably a simple find and replace.

Anonymous said...

looks like it is ASCII/ANSI art, like d.charles said. still pretty neat. http://www.constantskeptic.com

in 1st part of vid he writes and copies for himself, but later all job is done by script (or frenzy pasting)

But does it validate? LOL

I usually stick with images; it's a bit lighter on my server.

Jon Pape said...

Ascii art uses characters. This guy is using table elements and background color.

Anonymous said...

Warning: This does not VALIDATE as XHTML 1.0 Strict!

Challenge him to create the same, but with CSS-styling instead - and making it work cross-browsers!

Some people got too much spare time...

Anonymous said...

Yes, you can use table cells like pixels if you want, by setting the background colours appropriately. This isn't clever, difficult or in any way useful; it takes up something like 20 times as much bandwidth and isn't even a technical challenge. I'm sure putting together the video took some effort but I have no idea why the creator bothered.

joe said...

You guys obviously didn't recognize the find and replace box as he changed the wrongly spelt height. Maybe it's the fact it isn't in english... although what do I know.

Anonymous said...

That looks like as if a computer was typing all that code out.

a link to the result would be nice

after all, it is supposed to be html, right?

Æther said...

It's easy to make a program to generate the code from a picture in Java. I have a friend who wrote one in about 5 minutes.

The interesting part about the whole mess is it bloats the size of the file required to display the image. Your ~200kb banner becomes ~3mb.

We are brainstorming ways to shrink the file size (character count), but the current thinking is this:
Perhaps an image file format is better than a web markup language when it comes to storing image data =)

Fake - There is a mistake in the table height syntax at beginning - he used heifht instead of height. This would goof the result for sure - nice try yoshi oki moto yuka or whoever you are.

He does a find and replace all on the heifgt problem to fix it. but he does use "hright" in the very 1st table.

this guy needs to get a life!!

It could be a script. I made a program a couple months ago to take a picture and convert it to a table.
Puede ser un script. Hice un programa hace algunos meses para convertir una imagen en una tabla.

or just http://neil.fraser.name/software/img2html/

Anonymous said...

this is FAKE.

Reason:
If you look carefully it goes tr > td > tr > td (means it should have been drawing line by line), but the graphic sequence is random, everyone with basic HTML knowledge can tell.

Anonymous said...

Everyone insulting this guy, maybe it is real, maybe not, but movie rocks.

the Heifth is being replaced with Height using the find and replace tool. It went quiet fast so i haven't seen everything. This movie could have been made by making printscreens and past it in a movie, so that would explain the typing speed which makes it look like a script. I am not gonna spend much time to see if it is real or not. And it is NOT ASCII/ANSI art.

The movie rocks! Well done mate!

Anonymous said...

Great! It'd be easier to do in CSS.

DavidGX said...

It rocks, imo. Now he just needs to animate it :P

Anonymous said...

To all of the people calling fake on this video with bogus reasons:

1) The improperly spelled height attribute is SEARCH AND REPLACED once he copied and pasted the base amount of table rows. You can tell this was done manually as it is done in chunks. This is not at all hard to do.

2) The sequence of table data makes sense because he uses rowspan and colspan to essentially "compress" his results. He knows a big area of the image is going to be the same colour, so instead of 1x1 table cells he uses other sizes.

3) ANSI OR ASCII art refers to art created using text characters displayed AS TEXT on the screen. What is being displayed on the screen here are TABLE CELLS.

I've actually used this process before to embed a CAPTCHA image. It is very handy for making a single page CAPTCHA, but for an 80x120px image you're looking at about 300k of html text, and that's just for the image. It's a neat trick, but not something you want to do very often.

It's not fake, there's a rowspan tag bro. I do believe it's a script though. Have fun coding that in itself though.

That's a lot of work to do something that could be done more simply. Never heard of SVG I suppose! (scalable vector graphics). Still, we have to explore every avenue to be sure of finding the best way.

It's fake, only for a reason... how he can do all that without using tab? IT'S IMPOSIBLE. And using the search and replace tools he can do some things, yeah, but he needs to put a "id" or a "name" to find a specific line... FAKE

Anonymous said...

It's a work of art done in a unique fashion. Not fake. LOL @ "fake because he didn't use tab". He doesn't need id's and names because he is coding in a linear style and used solid colors for specific parts of the image. Changing the colors using find and replace works perfectly.

not that hard to do, just time consuming. BBS Sysop here, that's no ANSI but is rather similar. A skosh more advanced that using TheDraw.

Mike Archibald said...

It's an old idea and possibly the worst use of tables I've ever seen!

Probably made the video using stop motion animation and copied chunks of the HTML from a pre-prepared file.

Did something like that myself with a JPG2HTML routine I hacked together: http://fuckthe.eu/nic2.html
