It looks great, John! What do you plan to do with it - that is, where's it going
to be displayed?
One of my favorite features about Todd's setup is that you can turn the dithering
on and off - leaving it on gives you the ultra-realism, as evidenced by mosaics
likes yours and the Mona Lisa. Turning it off produces a more blocky, "artsy"
feel to it. A couple months ago there was an item of this type for auction on
ebay - I copied the pic to my directory in Brickshelf:

The gamma correction factor is wonderful too.
Last week I made one of this sort using a picture of my wife - I hope to take
pictures of it tonight (borrowing the digital camera from work) and post them
tomorrow. Much to her chagrin and embarrassment, it's set up in a corner of the
living room, at my insistence <g>.
