Now that my first year of shooting a Photo a Day is complete, I wanted to take my pictures and display them in a together in a poster of some sort.    After playing around with Photoshop for hours, I decided to use my other skill to solve the problem.  So I sat down and created a piece of software to take my images and arrange them into a decent looking poster.     Well, a few people commented that they liked  the output that I posted so I spent a few hours tonight to clean it up and make it usable for others.    It is somewhat different from other Mosaic software.   This software does not try to create a hidden image out of your photos....it simply arranges the images into a grid for display.  Also, it assumes that the images are square.  Any images that are not square are simple squished to be a square so unless you want squished images, you will need to do some preprocessing.    I may fix this if becomes a bother.   The image at the right is typical of the output.   

Here are some of the features I put in already...

• Sort Images by EXIF Date or Filename
• Choose a Background Color
• Choose how many columns of images to use (rows are calculated based on the number of images)
• Select a folder full of images (jpeg only)

Finally, the app is built using .NET 2.0 which is still beta so the installer will ask you download the new framework from Microsoft when you install.    If after all that you are still interested here it is. Be sure to shoot me any bugs you find or ideas on how to make it better.
