Hi,

Scenario: A webpage of 1000X1000 pixels and each pixel is a photo.
Is it possible to write a computer pixel script that automatically generates/assembles a large image (made up of 1000X1000 pixels photos) of a photo? Also there are 10,000 photos in photo database from which to generate 10,000 larger images. By clicking a pixel on the large image, it will open up the pixel photo.

Would appreciate help/ comments from pixperts (pixel experts  ;D) on whether above can be done.

Thanks & Regards,   :)

Yes. It can certinly be done i thought of an algorithem a long time ago. ( you will have many *for* loops )

1 the main image is composed of pixels.

2 you have a database of pictures,

3 the program first evaluates the first pixel in the drawing to get the color, then it gets the average color for each picture in the database then it simply choses the best picture in the database that the average of pixels match the original image

this repeats untill all pixels in the target image have a picture assigned to them.

I have never found the time to implliment this and you have some problems. You nedd many picture sto do this with any accuracy.

Yes, would not mind paying an affordable fee for it.

Hi,
Photos in photo database are actually photos of each pixel. Can every1 of the 10,000 photos generate large image? Or only works for some photos that fit color rule?
We can discuss this further and I would not mind paying an afoordable fee for a workable script.
Cheers
