Answer: Pixel Puzzle #101

The hidden picture is a pixel creature!

The finished pixel picture: a pixel creature.
Here’s what the colours make.

The picture as Python

Here is the same picture stored as numbers in a Python list. The program reads each number and prints a symbol for it, so you can see the picture appear in the Python shell.

picture = [
    "00000000",
    "00122100",
    "00311300",
    "02411420",
    "01222210",
    "00011000",
    "01211210",
    "00000000",
]
symbols = " #@*o"

for row in picture:
    line = ""
    for number in row:
        line = line + symbols[int(number)]
    print(line)

When you run it, it prints:

  #@@#
  *##*
 @o##o@
 #@@@@#
   ##
 #@##@#
