Mosaic Madness! :D
on: May 13, 2006, 00:50:49 AM
Just been playing about with some photos of my rifle club with centarsia when the chairman of the club and me mate mentioned making a mosaic with all of the rifle photos for the years he was chairman with him and his new rifle.

So... taking the master photo of:



And about 1000 other photos of rifle club activities and socials.

I ended up with...


The above image is a scaled down version as the full version is 11MB in size, and has a width of over 3200. :) But in the full version you can clearly see the content of the actual photos that make up the image :)

Rather cool stuffs! :D

ahhh hours and hours of copying and pasting and layering the images in in photoshop :D lol


Rofl... no :D

20 or so minutes using this program: http://www.alhena-design.com/centarsia

takes ages to process images into the queue, but once done the mosaic takes about 10minutes to make :)

Hit the zoom button in XP to pull it out.

Use larger sized tiles (100x100) and itll have to be printed on a paper size larger than A4 to see the full picture.
