Mosamic

Mosamic is a super easy Mac OS X app that helps you make custom photomosaics using your own photos. Think of it as turning a collection of pictures into a single, amazing image!

What is a Photomosaic?

A photographic mosaic, or photomosaic for short, is basically a big picture made up of lots of smaller ones. Each little piece is a photo that matches the overall image. It's like creating a puzzle, but instead of pieces, you use your favorite photos!

Create Your Own Mosaics Quickly

With Mosamic, you can whip up photomosaics from any group of images in just minutes! The main window makes it super simple to access your Tiles library where you can add or remove pictures easily.

Add Photos from Different Sources

You can set any folder on your computer as your source for photos or even pull images directly from Flickr. When using Flickr, the Import window lets you grab up to 1000 images and filter them by keywords—so you only get what you want!

Creating Your Mosaic Step-by-Step

Once you've got your Tiles library ready, it's time to create! Just follow the steps in the built-in wizard. First up, you'll need to pick the main photo you want to turn into a mosaic.

Choose Your Mosaic Style

Mosamic gives you two cool options: you can go for either a photo mosaic or a color mosaic. The photo mosaic fills in the original image with the smaller pictures, while the color mosaic uses pixelated color tiles instead.

Advanced Features for Creative Users

If you're feeling adventurous, Mosamic lets you tweak things like how many tiles to use and some advanced settings too! You can change how closely similar tiles are placed together and adjust blending levels between images. This way, your creative ideas can really shine!

Export and Share Your Creation

The app supports JPG and PNG formats so once you're done, you can export your masterpiece as a JPG file. Then share it with friends and family to show off your cool creation!
