I love these types of apps.

Two suggestions for the next version:

(1) Allow drag-and-drop of an image onto the preview window, so we don't
have to use "File -> Load Image".

(2) Allow saving of the outputted image, instead of deleting it when the app quits.

Thx.

This is already implemented, or how do you mean that?

Oops, I can't believe I missed that.

No problem!

I'll explain why I missed it (so you don't think I'm stupid): I saw the output
file in the app's folder, and assumed it was automatically saving itself there,
and then it kept deleting when I exited the app. I never looked at the File
menu properly, except to open a file. I was too concentrated on the app's
folder instead of the app itself. A "missing the forest for the trees" situation.

Ok, then i will add an option "Delete output file"... so everybody can choose if he (or she ^^) keep this/these file(s).

I've just ran the program with 'open coverted file' ticked but I'm not getting anything shown nor am I getting a file saved in the directory of the source picture.

Is there a limit on the size of the jpg that can be used or something?

Edit. Ok. My mistake, I expected the file to be opened without having to save it first.

When I exit the program it deletes the output file.

Yes, but if do not check the checkbox/option "Delete output file(s) when exit" they won't be deleted. Otherwise you can save an image over the menu "File -> Save Ascii as an Image". ^^

Aa I see.
Great work btw
