Mosaic Madness
My friend, Kate over at Chronicles of a Country Girl told me about this fantastic mosaic maker by Big Huge Labs. It is super easy to use and the results are pretty fun.
This is what you do… Go here. Now upload your photos to Flickr. Then copy and paste the URL of each photo into the mosaic maker. You can choose different formats, backgrounds and borders. Then you hit the big “Create” button at the bottom of the page.
Then voila! your mosaic is made. You can download it by hitting the save button or you can try again until you get a result that you are happy with.
Now, yes, yes, yes; you can do all this with Photoshop. It’s really fast with the mosaic maker but you don’t have as much control if you did it yourself in your editing software. It is just a fun thing to do that may produce some great results.
Have you made any mosaics? Post them up on the MomShots Flickr group.

Yes! See how fun it is!
Actually wish I could do this in Photoshop but will have to investigate the process. Have a great day.

Hello - I just found you via pioneer woman. What a great site. I have a newish nikon D40 and an even newer zoom lens for it but I don’t understand how it all works yet! I’m getting there! I love the mosaics and in fact did try one last summer but couldn’t figure it out properly! I’ll have to try again. Love that dog photo manipulation post on your tips and just sent the link to my sis. She has two dogs and would love a pic like that of them. Bx
