Hi

does anyone know how to create those large-images-made-up-from-lots-of-smaller-images? You know the ones where when you stand far enough back you see it's a picture of someones face (for example).

Any shareware apps that do this or tips/techniques using photoshop would be very welcome.

thanks

This seems to be a take-off on some painting techniques. And I would guess most people do it the same way that painters create such pieces, that is, through the creativity of their minds.

Yes I'm sure that was how Dali did it but he never had a PowerMac.

A quick Google ('image mosaic photoshop') came up with this.
