there are actually programs that generate photo mosaics for you if you give them a load of images, my housemate made one

*points* I WANT!

:D

I'm gonna make one some day!

That is really cool! It really does look like Mario.

If that took 3-9 hours, then imagine what time it must have took to do those Jelly Belly paintings they have... but those are really cool, too. I've seen 'em up close - well, not close, but you know, I've been in the same room as them.

You don't want to know how long it took me to figure out it was Mario.

Anyways, it's kind of cool. I wonder how much a Mario collector would pay for that on eBay. I think they just found a living.

The mosaic is a bit good though, isnt it.



Coming from the guy who wanted a Matrix coat just like Neo's? :roll:


Anyway, the thing I find the most fascinating is how dirty that house is. There's random garbage all over the place!

If I had the posty notes I'd do the same thing, except I'd make an 8-bit Megaman instead of Mario. :D

Wow. Just wow.

Wow.

The picture is good, though, even if it took me a while to see what it was.

It's really good. I didn't know it was Mario until he told us it was.

And Jim, we all know you secretly dress up as a Barbie and prance around the living room declaring your love for Rune, I mean...

Wow...I often have excessive amounts of time and lots of post-it notes, maybe I can try that.

It doesn't look as though they used as many as they said they did, though, unless they layered it.

It's a 16 by 17. 16*17=272. :D

Gee, and my thought was about how I couldn't do something like that because there isn't enough free space in our basement. :lol:

There, my guilty secret is out. I'm a clutter person.

OK, one of my guilty secrets.

Thats pretty cool but I don't know if it would take aslong as Douglas said..then again I probably always underestimate these things.

There is a peice of art work similiarly cool at Wellington (New Zealand) Airport which is a mosaic of Peter Jackson made out of small square peices of toast called cocktail bread I think. I should get a picture of it if I'm ever at the airport (which is very unfortunately unlikely).

Haha--a neon Mario!

The next project should be to use [painted] Scrabble tiles and make Luigi. XD

Without sounding like I'm ripping the person off, I'm actually thinking about making that, just to see what it looks like, and it'll be something to do. :P
