Could be circles, fruit, cars, you know what I mean. Have a look at this site, check out the NZ profile http://www.moneymanagers.co.nz/ Thanks John in Mosgiel.	John W (523)

There probably is a way to do this, when working with ASCII Art Convertors, which takes an image and outputs the image using Text only to form the picture, it must follow an algorithm of how the image is created to understand what Text to use and how to read the pixels of the images. This method would be similar to what you'd be looking for, except it were to output blocks instead. Cheers, KK.	Kame (312)

[edit] not sure if it does anything but square or rectangular shapes. If you wanted different shapes you'd be looking at layers.	Greg (193)
