'''
This script will convert a 32x32 pixel image (either RGB or Indexed) to
"1"s (black) and "0"s (anything else) for saving on a EEPROM chip as a
coded message (see http://www.instructables.com/id/Message-in-a-Chip/).

You may need to install the PIL library from the command line using:
"pip install pillow"
