Hi-  Personally-   I use notepad to create my ASCII pictures.  
I'm not into mIRCs so I can't tell you how to colorize them.
I do have a link off my homepage to LadyWAVer's homepage
(whose URL I would have to search for right now) but she has
mIRC info along with examples of colorized mIRC ascii art.
I believe that she does her colorization by hand- no program.
