Yeah, that seems to work. Thanks! |

I believe it's called a mosaic, and a google search for mosaic image software turns up a pile of results.
Edit: This program is free and seems to work pretty well. |

I suppose you have a program, and feed it a picture it has to create... then you give it a directory of pictures it can choose from.
You then take the average color value of each picture in the directory by, i dunno, averaging the color of all the pixels each picture. i.e. if it's 64 x 64 pixels, it might have an average value of 0x334455 or something. Then you take the picture you want it to piece together, and seperate it into a grid based on how many pictures you have in the directory to choose from. i.e. if you have 83 pictures you could select to have a 9x9 grid or a 10x8 grid. Then you'd average the pixel values over those regions. Finally, you'd match average pixel value regions in the target picture with pixel values of the pictures in the directory. I mean, this is pretty rudimentary, but it might work. |

Well I know what I want it to do but I have no idea what it's called. I'm looking for a program that takes several small images and arranges them to look like one big one. The attached image demonstrates this, but it's not very good - I need really high resolution, such that if you were to zoom out far enough, it'd be almost identical to the original image (because that's what I plan to do ). If possible, I'd like to see it choose actual dark images for the black parts too instead of just choosing random images and darkening them. Obviously, I need to be able to choose both the images that will be mixed together and the image that they will try to approximate (just as you can see here, the large owl is made of many small pictures of owls). Does anyone know of one? |
