I have to disagree with you here ;)
Sure it is ASCII characters being used, but the characters alone are just
a bunch of letters making no sense. You need Google to colour the
characters to bring out the picture. And since when is colours considered
ASCII? This looks more like ANSI art than ASCII art if you ask me.
True ASCII art can be seen without Google.
