You can flip images and convert them to grayscale or monochrome images. 2006-09-02T17:01:03+0 new_options http://asciiconvert.com/about/news/#purged_gallery The entire image gallery was purged because of site maintenance. We will work on features so that we can keep the images in the online gallery for a long time. At the moment, we only keep images 14 days. 2006-09-25T13:00:00+0 purged_gallery http://asciiconvert.com/about/news/#oops_page_back_up I made an update to the site, allowing you to set that the images should have white backgrounds. This works pretty good for images that have white backgrounds. Anyway, I did a small mistake and the frontpage has been down a couple of ours. It's back up now though. 2006-09-28T21:00:00+0 oops_page_back_up http://asciiconvert.com/about/news/#rss_news_as_html I've written a small RSS to HTML XML stylesheet, so you can read these news with a browser that doesn't support RSS. 2006-09-30T01:21:25+2 rss_news_as_html http://asciiconvert.com/about/news/#site_is_back_up The site is now back! It was down because it runs on a new server, which happened to have a problem with DNS lookups. 2006-10-23T19:28:00+2 site_is_back_up http://asciiconvert.com/about/news/#png_bitmap I have added some new features that lets you view all images as PNG bitmaps. This is now in use in the gallery. Click on an image, and then click "View as PNG" to get a PNG copy. The PNG images are generated on-the-fly, so the first viewing will take some time, but the next one uses the cached result. 2006-10-29T19:00:00+2 png_bitmap http://asciiconvert.com/about/news/#gallery_is_faster The gallery now loads much, MUCH faster. It also displays the thumbnails as PNGs. Everything is only updated when needed. 2006-11-01T00:46:00+2 gallery_is_faster http://asciiconvert.com/about/news/#chinese You can now use asciiconvert in both English and Simplified Chinese. 2006-11-18T05:26:00+2 chinese
