I previously wrote about drawing with Microsoft Paint, a painstakingly slow yet apparently skillful way of drawing images. Now comes a new craze for people who have a lot of drawing talent, a little HTML knowledge and way, way, way too much free time on their hands. I’m talking about drawing using HTML tables. Check out this time-lapsed video as an example.
So this guy sees the video and quickly produces a tool to convert any image to HTML, just for the fun of it. There is no current practical use to this tool, unless you’re writing to a website that doesn’t allow images but allows tables (some forums come to mind). Maybe this will be the next cool thing for geek kids who want to show off their amazing skills of using another website to produce images. (via Digg)
