Just to name a few. Happy 8/8. My ASCII art site gen'd its first glorious ASCII art renditions of whatever is important to people on a Friday night sometime early this morning. In fact it created over 500 ASCII images in one night.
Start Sidetrack... at 120 by 60-300? chars could easily mean 500+ full TEXT mySQL entries/ night which means I may have to start archiving this somewhere so my server doesn't get too beat up. Or I could start doing weekly instead of daily. Well I'll track it for a while and see how it goes... End Sidetrack.
So this site isn't exactly launch ready, and doesn't have all the good features I have planned but it is running for the moment and I wanted to give the people that actualy take the time and read this a preview.
Perhaps someday my sever will be the Warhol of the ASCII world while I proudly sip PBR by the burn barrel.
Cheers Tim
