Right now it's in my living room where everyone can see as they come in the
front door. But since it uses up almost all of my 1x1 bricks and I want to do
other mosaics, it won't be permanent.

Yeah, there are a bunch of great features. I didn't have to do any gamma
correction on this picture, but I have others that will need some to get an
accurate representation. I like being able to pick the colors I want to use.
I also had Mosaic Maker render Kendra in all of the Lego colors using 1x1
plates. It was very realistic.
I can't wait until Lego has their mosaic program up and running so that I can
get lots of gray (and black and white) plates to do gray-scale mosaics with
Todd's Mosaic Maker.

Great! I can't wait to see them.
