Bah, I got nothing for the Pixel Gods, even an excuse. Now I'm probably going to burn on a pyre, in the flames of gods' wrath!

Start assembling bigger pieces from the tiles perhaps?

How much time do we have for completing this stage?

Ryona · « **Reply #51 on:** August 16, 2008, 05:31:08 pm »

Ahh.. Finally finished making all 16 little tile-thingies. Touched up on some of the first eight too.

Solar Eclips
Pentacle
Meditation with chakras
YinYang
Woman in fetal position
Sun and Earth (or possibly Moon)
Woman sitting on the ground
Crescent moon over a lake in the wilderness
Hug
Woman suckling on a breast
Watchful eyes over the city
Die
Person radiating energy
Galaxy
Creative power
In the sea

Take as much time as you want. When I get back from holiday I will SEE TO YOUR FATES.

I didn't get all of them done, lazy me.

I might do the rest before Helm comes back but here's the bunch for now:

Hand against a glass
Weird black dude
Scenery to the sea between 2 mountains on a sunny day
Grinning face
Seagull
Hi!
Cleavage
Finnish flag
House in a moonlight
Guess

Well, Hi

, this is my first post here, and, really, my first pixel ever.

sorry if it's bad.

Helm · « **Reply #56 on:** August 17, 2008, 04:02:05 pm »

bad? More like brilliant. still, you could anti-alias these edges some.

Here's a fun test made with all (or at least I tried to fit them all) of the tiles you guys made. Of course the subject had to be Helm, since he's the one who started this activity

I was astonished by the sheer amount of unique tiles; there were over 400 of them! That's over 100,000 pixels! Great job guys!

Sorry for the bad quality of this mosaic picture, the program I used wasn't registered so it allowed me to export only jpg

But I will update it if I find a way to make it better!

Helm · « **Reply #60 on:** August 25, 2008, 11:50:40 pm »

wha... what!? That's amazing! Is there a program that does this, you feed it the tile data and it churns out mosaics?

ter-o · « **Reply #61 on:** August 25, 2008, 11:52:47 pm »

Yup

The one I used is called Mazaika. It was a helluva job to crop each tile to a unique file, tho

PS. and I didn't have any hi-res picture of you, the quality could've been better with better source image

Ryona · « **Reply #62 on:** August 26, 2008, 02:12:58 am »

Whoooaah! That is AMAZING!

I am so totally impressed! Mannaged to find my tiles too!

It's a keeper! *saves*

Conceit · « **Reply #63 on:** August 26, 2008, 03:12:23 am »

wow

the effect is quite nice, the tiled look and the golden pallete go really well together.Gives out a delicious candy like look...Going in and seeing how all the little pixels have a mind of their own is awesome. We should do some more of these =0

The program to me seems to pick a few tiles most fitting for each color and use the same over and over...doesnt seem too concerned with variation. if we're using this program I think it'd be good to divide the big picture in different sections, then assign a set of tiles for each section...that way we assure all the tiles get displayed.

Helm · « **Reply #64 on:** August 26, 2008, 03:32:21 am »

Mind uploading your tile file system for other people, tero?

chriskot · « **Reply #65 on:** August 26, 2008, 04:18:12 am »

AWESOME. That made my day.

I second this request. I downloaded Mazaika immediately after I saw this.
Actually, I was wondering if anyone would do this sort of thing. I would've liked to, but I just didn't know where to find a good photomosaic compiler.

Rosse · « **Reply #66 on:** August 26, 2008, 06:23:46 am »

I haven't tried this tool but it's in my bookmarks since ages, so maybe it's useful for somebody who doesn't like to download a tool for this task.

Here are the tiles. They are still missing a few, for example I can't get Conceit's tiles to show, so they are not in this bunch. But I will add them later if the link to his tiles gets fixed.

Conceit's tiles:

can you see these?

No, still showing the red X. Even if I copy the url to an address bar and try access it straight, it shows only red X.

Well, in a picture that big you have over 10,000 tiles. That said, it means that every unique tile is used 26 times, if they are evenly divided. But of course they are not. But still at least there's a possibility that all of them are there, some more than 26 times, some less. To be sure, everyone should try to find all their tiles at least once and then report back to us if they didn't find all of them.

At least I found all my tiles.

Yes, thank you. Now I can add them to the bunch.

They are all there, I found them. Just look closer

The clouds are bit blurry tho due the jpg conversion

I tried to think what image subjects would be suitable, but all I could think of was you.

Maybe people could post reference images here and then I could make more of them out of the tiles?
