Modern ASCII art

I must confess that for the last few years I haven't been paying much attention to the mechanics of web page design. Lately I have been pottering in ASP.Net which has been a lot of fun. I was dimly aware that laying out my page using tables probably wasn't au courant so I have been doing a crash update course on the use of the div tag. No magic there and of course CSS is extremely straight forward.

Sometimes though you come across something done using the current technology that you never would have imagined was even possible. Check out this: a rendering of Homer Simpson done entirely with div tags. If you inspect the underlying source you can see that it's actually ASCII art.
