  "Easily achieve surprising results"

  March 12, 2010  |   By don_walker

  Version: MacOSaiX 2.1

  Pros

  Straightforward

  Cons

  Rendering the mosaic takes time -- depending on the number of image sources and speed of your CPU

  Summary

  A one-trick pony with a really neat trick. I used it to create a corporate promotional piece, building a mosaic of the company logo with puzzle-shaped tiles using a source directory of 346 pictures. The program selects and places each image to best match a spot in the resulting mosaic, then continues to optimize placement, shifting images for the best result. A test with current version: 25 minutes to render a mosaic, selecting from a folder of 2696 images to fill 1280 tiles. Very cool!
