It works by using Pillow to convert your picture to ascii; first by stretching the image's width by +65% because the height of a text character is 65% bigger than the width, it saves that file to "Temp.png". Then it opens that file and converts it to greyscale and ascii text, prints it in console and saves it to "ascii_image.txt". Last it deletes "Temp.png".
1. Add arguments to terminal.
2. Make it use memory instead of temporary files.
3. Make it an executible.
4. More ascii characters.
5. Output to png, with color choice.
1. Allow GIF files to work. (Done)
2. Add docstrings. (continuous)
3. Added video support(.mp4, .mov, .avi & .mkv) (Done)
