Answer: Pixel Puzzle #140

The hidden picture is a pixel creature!

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",
    "01011010",
    "00200200",
    "03433430",
    "01133110",
    "00000000",
    "00111100",
    "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*
 ##**##
