Mazaika is a photo mosaic tool. It can create pictures made of other pictures.
Mazaika can create pictures made of other pictures.
Using Mazaika you can make professional looking mosaic pictures from almost any kind and type of image files. You can use even simple icon files (at size 32x32 pixels) to create very impressive mosaic pictures. If you have a digital camera, you can use your own pictures as tiles. Note that even in trial version of Mazaika you have no limit on the image database size and you could use as many of your own custom picture tiles as you want - or rather, as you have :-).
Mazaika is the ONLY photo mosaic application that allows manual changes to every single tile in the finished mosaic. If you don't like an image, substitute it with another matching candidate image! And even more! You might insert custom images as a sort of personal signature, or as a hidden picture riddle (as in a "Where are they?" puzzle book). Or you might need to make sure that a particularly well-liked image is not passed over as a tile; for example that Uncle Ernie appears somewhere in your final mosaic.
How Mazaika works:
Every region of the source image is replaced with some image from a collection, that most closely resembles the original image. When searching for an appropriate image Mazaika considers not only the overall color of the source image part but also takes into account the inner color and the brightness distribution within.
The more pictures in your collection - the more accurate the match. The more different colors and brightnesses in the pictures in the collection - the more accurate the match. In the gallery section you can see some source pictures rendered with different collections.
