   I will start, since mosaics have a bit more than 2000 bricks per base plate, I will guess a super huge 100 baseplate mosaic.... although I dont really think that is it that would be cool!

Janey-

Actually, I think a 100 (48 x48) baseplate mosaic would be cool. Tha would get the resolution up to 480 x 480 or 75% of VGA, which is a lot better than the 8 baseplate x 3 baselplate mosaic we just presented to Northwood High School in Irvine, CA last week. Still, ours was 10 feet long and weighed 150 pounds!

Regarding your guess: No.

Bonus extended answer: It’s not a mosaic.

Ted, I would love to see some pics of your mosaic. I am toying with the idea of making one for my kids school, http://www.ismonterey.org/

Their logo is pretty colorful, and I think it would be cool, in about 320x120 resolution (7x3 48x48 baseplates).
