... that can make a logo for a Roguelike i'm almost finishing.
I need someone that can do something in this style:
http://aa-project.sourceforge.net/gallery/krizik.png (http://aa-project.sourceforge.net/gallery/krizik.png)
This is, a complex ASCII "draw", not just using a single character.
Of course, not that face, just the name of my roguelike (that only such person will know until release date).
Danke Schön.

I think this is done automatically and you can run it yourself. I don't know the details, but look for AA-lib.

I don't know for sure, but that image was probably generated by an ASCII art program, and not done by hand. There are plenty of ASCII art generators out there for you to try. A quick google search turned up this one: http://www.glassgiant.com/ascii/
I haven't tested it, but their samples look good.

Yes, that was made with AA-Lib.
The problem is that I'm developing for FreeBasic, and there is no AA-Lib for FreeBasic :'(

I will give a try to that, although I don't like it as much as I like the AA-Lib results.

You're not generating the ASCII art in run time, are you? ;)
All you need to do is draw your logo as a picture, then use a generator (once) to create the ASCII art.
After that, assign the result to a string constant in your code and display it from within your program.
If you want color, the easiest way is to use two string constants (one for the ASCII characters, and one for the color code of each character), and modify your display method to set the color before writing each char.

For title screen, the ASCII art is just "static".
But I had in mind an introductory ASCII movie, and AA-Lib is pretty usefull for this (refer to BB project derived from AA-Lib).

The Doryen library has this capability.

There is no libtcod for FreeBasic. Or at least, i didn't find it.
