Create image mosaics with a free web app


There's no denying the inherent coolness of image mosaics. If you haven't heard the term, they're those insane images that are made up of hundreds of other scaled-down images. Zoom out, and it looks like something recognizable (like Paper Mario, for example).

Processing only takes a few moments and your completed image can, of course, be downloaded. You can also zoom in and out - from 50% to 200% - on your image to see how it looks at different sizes.

To achieve the best results, use fairly large originals - Mario was 1280 pixels high, and turned out rather nicely.
