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.

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 is a list of its functions...
If not, can you recommend a laguage/graphics library that will.
