GD Graphics Library & ASCII art

[Alx]

Ok this is probably an advanced topic.

I have some experience with PHP but little with GD.

My plan is to write a program that produces QUALITY ascii art from images the user uploads via web. Do you think the GD library will be sufficient for this project.

here (http://ca3.php.net/gd) is a list of its functions...

If not, can you recommend a laguage/graphics library that will.

I haven't tried it but here is a class that sounds like it does exactly that using GD: http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/3742.html

If nothing else it would provide some examples.
