Filch It Friday: Mosaic

I filched from Gina and SheShe, thinking this would be a lazy post for the end of the week. But it took longer than I expected, all that thinking and typing and cutting and pasting and outputting and uploading and posting...

The answers:


The questions:

  1. What is your first name?
  2. What is your favorite food?
  3. What high school did you go to?
  4. What is your favorite color?
  5. Who is your celebrity crush?
  6. What is your favorite drink?
  7. What is your dream vacation?
  8. What is your favorite dessert?
  9. What do you want to be when you grow up?
  10. What do you love most in life?
  11. What is one word that describes you?
  12. What is your Flickr name?
The process:
  • Type your answer to each of the questions below into Flickr search.
  • Using only the first page of results, pick one image.
  • Copy and paste URLs for the images into Big Huge Lab's Mosaic Maker to create a mosaic of the picture answers.

This happens to me all the time too, when I thought its gonna be a post that probably gonna be done in 1 min, I can end up sitting infront of my monitor screen for almost half an hour? How did that happen? Beats me!

I love this! My SIL did it recently too it's such a cool effect. And of course, I could spend as much time trying to match up photos with questions as you did creating the mosaic.

I saw this somewhere else recently and thought I may have to filch it as well. I love Flickr and that Mosaic Maker is pure genius.

That looks like it would take a really long time. Nice shots, though, and great idea. Have a great weekend!

hi--thanks for all your great comments today on MPC! that html paste worked a treat! :-) and i realized that it was your blog that i cut & pasted the instructions for the flickr mosaic thingie. :-) i did it, but it took me HOURS!! perhaps i'm just a bit slow and had to create accounts and things...

anyway, i've added you to my blogroll. will definitely be coming back to see what's up in your world.
