ASCII Rose:

The intent of this image was to incorporate text with other elements in such a way as so the text was not to distract from the image as a whole. It was created using Adobe Photoshop 7, artSCII, and MS-Paint. Nothing wrong from a technical aspect, but elements are considered to be too pronounced, but have been toned down since.

A lot of detail has been lost at this scale. See the original, high resolution, large image here.
