Foto-Mosaik 4.1.0.0 is a program that creates mosaic-pictures from many small pictures.
You can use as tiles your own photos. The tiles will be selectes at random. After analysis, Foto-Mosaik puts them into one or multiple databases.
Foto-Mosaik 4.1.0 can be installed and run in German or English.
This program is postcard-ware, it means that it´s free, but the author wants the users to send him a postcard as a form of payment.
The program begins with a complete steb-by-step tutorial that guides you through the entire process of building mosaic-pictures.
First of all, you will need to add pictures that will serve as tiles to a database. You can add pictures from any source (your disk, a pen drive, a CD or DVD...). The desired pictures can even be extracted from a video file.
Then, Foto-Mosaik will scan the designed folders for pictures, and will catalog them.
Then you will need to chose the image that will be converted to a mosaic, and where to save the result. You´ll need to chose which tile database will you use, how many tiles will you use. and the format and size of the tiles.

I found V.4.1.0 in my backup drive today, nearly Jan 2017, have just installed it and it still works like a charm!
Back in 2007 the author only asked to receive a postcard with mosaic picture by regular mail - as a form of 'payment' - and of course, I did send one.

Since the downloadable version seems to be of the same age and I guess snail-mail postcards may not be wanted now, let me just say thank you for sharing, Steffen Schirmer! And of course, in spite of the many competitors there are now, still recommend this software to anyone It has all the necessary features, works with no fuss, and there is no need to learn anything.
