I can't find the "Build Your Own" Mosaic link on the Lego site. I only see the 4 pre-packaged mosaics. Is it gone? Are they not offering the do-it-yourself service any more? I have a 6 panel Legolas Mosaic, ready to go! ---Will (21 years ago, 24-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

(...) Yeah, I just noticed that this week as well. Bad time for that to be my new favorite LEGO hobby. The build-your-own 3443 with the Brickolizer was still available outside the US (I forget which country) so you could still use it to generate (...)

Crud. I just finished my .NET app that: 1) Converts any size color JPG to the grayscale mosaic palette. 2) Overlays a moveable, sizeable composite frame (1x1,2x2,2x3,etc..) over the image and crop the image to the frame size. 3) Allows you to (...)

(...) I emailed s@h and got this reply pretty quickly: Thank you for your interest in the LEGO Mosaic. The ability to produce a customized LEGO Mosaic has been available on our website since approximately July of 2000. It has been a fun, popular way (...)

Thanks for looking into this, David. The Tiger mosaic looks to have a pretty even distribution of colors, so I'll try to shoehorn my image into this distribution, and minimize the purchase. Here is the giant Legolas mosaic (12 panels) I am (...) (21 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

(...) Were you planning on making your application public? I'd love to see it in action. The grayscale mosaic I made (URL) had to do everything via resizing with photoshop. It would have been nice to have a tool to help out. (And I'd love to see tlc (...) (21 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

(...) Sure! Would you like to test it? I'd love to get some user feedback. It is functional, but not fully polished yet. Do you have the .NET framework installed? My app is very small (~80k), and uses a managed PDF dll (~200k) to handle the output. (...) (21 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)
