If you've been wanting to create a mosaic image and don't know how, here's the solution: Foto-Mosaik-Edda is free software that lets you build a mosaic image from photos stored on your PC. Awesome!
If you're ready to test your creativity with different mosaics using your own photos, we recommend downloading Foto-Mosaik-Edda. This free software creates a mosaic image from photos stored on your PC. If curiosity is eating at you, here's a quick explanation: a mosaic image is made up of small photos that join together in such a way that, from a distance, they combine to create the appearance of a new image. It's worth noting that to use this program you need a LOT of photos – two thousand or more are recommended – along with the image you want to base the mosaic on.
How to Create Your Mosaic
Once you've selected a group of photos, creating a large mosaic image is simple. You just choose the main image (the one the mosaic will be based on), give it a name, and then select the number of photos and the resolution of the mosaic. The size and resolution of the mosaic image are largely limited by how much time you're willing to let your PC spend on it. Time is a key factor here – to give you an idea, the program can take twenty minutes to create a mosaic composed of two thousand photos. In other words, the more photos you use, the longer the processing takes.
Foto-Mosaik-Edda is available as a free download on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
