Is there ANY way to write an image to the Win32 Console?

Question

Is there any way to write an colorful image to the Win32 Console? I don't care in which language, but C/C++/C# would be preferred.

Thanks.

Have you looked at ASCII art?

ASCII art (potentially using the 16 console colors) is the only way you can "write images" (approximations thereof) to Win32 console. – Milan Gardian Jan 01 '10 at 15:37
How can I convert any RGB color to the closest of those 16 colors? – Alon Gubkin Jan 01 '10 at 15:41
