Very cool applet Eric!

Very odd too, as I was JUST thinking to myself last night how cool it would
be to have a program that would do just this exact thing!  (I was thinking
along the lines of scanning in a photo of someone and having the program
spit out the parameters so that I could make a "portrait" of them out of
LEGO)

Unfortunately I thought I would have to write it myself!  But I guess I
don't ahve to now!  (Unfortunate because my programming skills SUCK!)

Keep up the good work!

Troy

Hi all,

As a preamble to a much more involved LEGO-like tool that I am working
on, I thought I'd going ahead and make the following applet available:

Pixelego Viewer
http://www.ericharshbarger.org/cgi-bin/j?pixelegoviewer/index.html

(or just go to http://www.ericharshbarger.org/java/ and follow the
links).

This applet is freely available for download, so if you want to spruce
up any LEGO-themed webpages by displaying 'Pixelego-ed' images, go
ahead. Instructions on download/embedding are available at the java
address above.

cheers,

eric

Thanks, Tony. By week's end (?) I hope to have a downloadable Java (java 1.1.7) application that will do all the partitioning, etc... I thought writing the dither algorithm was gonna be tough, but witha little web-research it turned out to be (...) (26 years ago, 26-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Same here, though I was inspired by the portraits in "The Ultimate Lego Book". One thing that's interesting about those pictures is that they're done in three colors (white, black, beige) as opposed to using the full brick palette. Also, (...) (26 years ago, 26-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)
