How do I copy text art?

Tap Copy on any piece and it goes straight to your clipboard, ready to paste into a message, post, bio, or document.

Why does text art look messed up when I paste it?

Multi-line text art needs a fixed-width (monospace) font to line up. Use the Code block button for Discord, GitHub, Reddit, or any Markdown editor — it wraps the art in ``` so it displays in a monospace font.

Can I make my own text art?

Yes. Use our ASCII Art Generator to turn any word into big ASCII lettering in 25 fonts, or to convert a photo into ASCII art.

Is the text art free to use?

Yes. The pieces in this collection were created for Linguaholic, and you're free to copy and use them in your own messages, posts, and projects.

What is text art?

Text art (also called ASCII art or keyboard art) is a picture made entirely from text characters — letters, symbols, and lines — so it can be pasted anywhere plain text goes. This collection gathers ready-made pieces you can copy with one tap: hearts, stars and moons, cute characters, gifts and cakes for celebrations, decorative dividers, and the classic one-line emoticons.

How to use it

Browse all pieces, or pick a category to narrow them down.
Tap Copy on the piece you like.
Paste it into your message, post, bio, or document.

Getting multi-line art to line up

Pictures that span several lines rely on every character being the same width, which only happens in a monospace font. When you paste into Discord, GitHub, Reddit, or any Markdown editor, use the Code block button: it wraps the art in ``` so it displays in a monospace font and stays aligned. One-line emoticons like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ look right anywhere.

What’s in the collection

Love & hearts — big and small hearts and a love letter for messages and cards.
Nature & sky — sun, crescent moon, star, mountains, and a Christmas tree.
Objects — gift box, birthday cake, coffee mug, trophy, house, book, and more.
Characters — a cat face, a robot, and a happy computer.
Dividers & frames — lines and borders to separate sections of a post or bio.
One-line emoticons — the shrug, table flip, Lenny face, and other internet classics.

Make your own

Want your name or a photo as text art? The ASCII Art Generator turns any word into big ASCII lettering in 25 fonts and converts images into ASCII art. For single symbols, see our heart symbols, star symbols, and arrow symbols.

Free to use

Every multi-line piece here was created for Linguaholic, and you’re welcome to copy and use it in your own messages, posts, and projects. It all runs in your browser, with no sign-up.
