Sorry, but I don't write french, I only read it a little, so I reply
in English. These things are often referred to as acsii-art. I don't
know where, but there are catalogs of them (for instance of the famous
smileys). There is a group called alt.ascii-art, rec.arts.ascii and
alt.ascii-art.animation that I suppose discusses these things. There's
also alt.binaries.pictures.ascii where examples can be found. There's
also kiel.ascii-art, but I don't know in which language this is.

By the way, with the program you are using (Forte Freeagent, see
header)  you can search through all the newsgroups for the word ascii,
that's how I came upon these groups. First, get all groups (online,
refresh groups) then click on subscribed groups until this is all
groups, press ctrl-F and type ascii.

I hope that I have sufficiently answered your question!
