Genuine Photo Mosaics

Our mosaic images are genuine mosaics, meaning each of the small mosaic photos is analyzed and perfectly integrated into the image using a special optimization process. The best position is determined by comparing both colors and contours in the images.

Many mosaic images from other providers are not "genuine," as they merely superimpose the main image over the tiles, and the many small individual images are simply placed side by side.
At first glance, the photo mosaic may look like a mosaic image, but the tiles are not properly arranged.

With a genuine mosaic image, the color of the individual small photos matches much better to the position on the main image. As a result, the main image does not need to be heavily overlaid on the tiles.

Variety of Mosaic Types

Unlike many other providers, we can create not only "normal" mosaic images, where equally sized tiles are arranged side by side and below each other. With us, you can even choose between several mosaic types.

The mosaic images are created using the same algorithm that powers the Photo-Mosaic-Edda. A complex calculation process analyzes the individual tiles and their colors to optimally arrange them for the mosaic effect. Subsequently, a slight overlay of the original image can enhance the mosaic effect to suit personal preferences.

Print Photo Mosaic [Software] Poster 40x60cm
Translated: Show Original (de) Translate
The canvas was delivered really quickly. I find the processing very good. The individual images (260) are clearly visible, which should be considered during editing. The more the background image shines through, the less the individual images are recognizable - I think I chose 50% transparency here. Just try it out ;)
All friends who have seen the picture so far think it's great, at least one colleague has already ordered.
I think it's a great idea and can really recommend it.

Customer Photo by Olaf for Review Print Photo Mosaic [Online] Canvas 140x100cm
The picture came out very nicely. However, I wish that the digitally ordered photo would be created in a higher resolution. Currently, it is only created with 150dpi, so when viewing the small images, blurriness quickly becomes visible. I would prefer a resolution of 300dpi.
