ASCII Logo Generator

Make an ASCII logo from text

Type your project or brand name and turn it into a bold ASCII logo using 133 FIGlet fonts plus built-in block styles. Preview every font at once, pick the one that fits, and copy it in a click.

Great for developers

An ASCII logo gives a CLI tool, a README, or a terminal splash screen instant character without any image files. Because it is plain text it loads everywhere, survives copy-paste, and never breaks a layout.

Tips for a strong logo

  • Short names read best — one or two words.
  • Try bold fonts like ANSI Shadow, Doom or Slant.
  • Use 80–100 columns for READMEs, up to 120 for terminals.
  • Paste inside a fenced code block to keep alignment.

When it looks right, copy the banner or download a TXT/PNG.

How to use it

  1. Enter your project or brand name. One or two words works best for a logo.
  2. Browse the font styles until you find one that matches the tone you want, from heavy block letters to thin outlines.
  3. Set the width so the logo fits where it is going: a README header, a terminal splash screen, or a chat pin.
  4. Copy it, or export SVG for crisp scaling and PNG for places that will not render text.

Tips for a better result

  • Test the logo at the width where people will actually see it. A style that looks great at 120 columns can turn to mush at 40.
  • Add a rule of dashes or equals signs above and below to give the logo a frame that survives being pasted into dense text.
  • For a README, put the logo in a fenced code block at the very top, then a one-line description under it.
  • Avoid punctuation-heavy names. Characters such as @ and # inside your text compete visually with the characters drawing the letters.

Common questions

Can I use an ASCII logo as my project logo?

Yes, and many command-line tools do exactly that for their startup banner and README header. The output is plain text you own.

Which format should I export?

Text for READMEs and terminals, SVG if you need it to scale on a website, PNG for anywhere that will not render text reliably.

How wide should a README logo be?

Around 80 columns. That fits GitHub without horizontal scrolling on a laptop and still reads on a tablet.

Can I add colour?

Yes. Coloured HTML and ANSI exports are available. GitHub strips colour from code blocks, so keep READMEs monochrome and save colour for terminal use.
