Image Mosaic Generator creates photo mosaics with a few clicks in just a few seconds. Simply choose a digital picture and the rest is done for you. The only limitation is that you can’t customize the tiled photos within the mosaic. If you want more control of your tiled images, you could try other free photo mosaic software MacOSaiX for Mac or AndreaMosaic for a PC.

Image Mosaic Generator can be used as an extension of an art project such as “guess the artwork” art history game or an “I Spy” on the images within the picture.
