Turn pictures into pixel-y goodness, can it be done?

Been done before, but it either died off or Badspot did something to make sure nobody could generate the images ingame; people were generating researchographic images and disgusting images.

It is possible, since someone else has done it before, but it's a horrible idea.

My main reason is because it ruins creativity, but another reason is because of what Conservative said.

Image2Brick probably still exists on the internet somewhere. I may have a mirror or two saved somewhere but I'm too lazy to go digging.
Basically what it did was took a colorset.txt, a 24-bit PNG image, asked if you wanted it horizontal or vertical, and generated a macro file that you could load with the Macro Saver. Pretty sure Jookia made it.

Upon further investigation, I do indeed have it mirrored. Go nuts.

It would require an external program

.exe files have been posted before without trouble

idk what the rules are though, it may just be that they weren't spotted
