it appears pat now did an additional ninja edit and added scott g's project back in. i'm glad someone got that screen shot online forcing pat to give scott credit for the amazing work he did.
i implore anyone who is going to respond to this thread to do a trivial amount of research into the two code bases. i think if you actually look at the facts in play here, you'll see just how ridiculous this whole situation is.
on a bit of a tangent, you should know i didn't sockpuppet any accounts on any websites / forums / whatever. i have literally nothing that i would want to say about you or this situation that would require a fake account. everyone who has been posting is 100% real and unique, you should think about that for a minute.
just wondering why you decided to alter the last paragraph in your blog post giving scott g credit for building a new figlet-js parser overnight that is 10x smaller then your implementation? (was it because you found out scott g was helping me?)
you said people should contribute to his project...but now they shouldn't?
i really have to apologize for the hosting. i'm using some experimental hosting software instead of a battle hardened solution. if anyone is having issues with the site you can clone your own repo and just open the index.html in your browser locally without installing anything.
site will become more stable over then next few weeks.
You are very right in your comment. I have ascii coding laying around right now in JavaScript that can take any image and convert it into ascii, but making it work server-side is going to be hard.
If you think you can help with any of this drop me a message on the github.
also, it should be noted that online demo creates a contact card that uses every single API call. normally you wouldn't generate a UK address + a US zipcode in one contact
If you are generating large sets of data you are better off calling the script from node. Also, if you are using the browser demo it's gonna try to append all that info to the DOM.....
I put this together in less then two days, there is a vast amount of room for improvement in this library. I'd be happy to see a web workers fork and streaming async version in node.
