THE 'NEW SCHOOL ASCII ART' is a
form of text mode art that uses
all of the text based characters
to produce logotypes and art.
Sometimes the borders between new
school ASCII, ANSI, and NFO art
is blurred. Especially since a
lot of artists drew colored new
school ASCII and then by
definition made it ANSI. But,
from my perspecitve, NFO art
uses mostly block characters
while the new school ascii use
more or less every other
character.
Compare the logos below with the
ones on the NFO page.

The new school asciis here are
all done in pure text, without
ANSI codes or colors, and
represents what I think is
really creative use of the
characters.
There are a lot of ascii art
generators on the web, but the
result they produce seldom come
close to the quality produced by
the hands of the skilled artist.
