AsciiArt Creator

[numbat]

I started with Qt last week so this is my first little application. It is a color ascii art creator for HTML or bulletin boards. This forum has a a size limit so I won't post an example here. If anybody wants to try it out, the project is attached. I'm trying to learn Qt so criticism would be very welcome.

I tried it with jpg.

Line
image = image.convertToFormat(QImage::Format_RGB32);
returns null for jpg that I feed it with. (Windows platform).

I have no idea why that would happen. The docs don't mention any reasons for QImage::convertToFormat failing. Sorry.

Cool. I've tried some free Ascii Image apps before and they either didn't look like Ascii letters or they didn't look like the image. This one seems to look good.

Maybe it has mostly to do with which image you start out with and the resolution.
