Mazaika

Mazaika is a lightweight Windows application whose purpose is to help you create mosaic images which contain many small photos.

You are welcomed by a step-by-step approach that allows you to define several aspects about the mosaic pictures. You can select the directory where the images are stored and include subfolders.

What’s more, the tool lets you filter the files by extension, such as BMP, JPG, GIF, ICO, TIF, PCX, PSD, and DIB, set the tile proportions that you want to use (square, portrait, or landscape), crop white borders from pictures, and specify the saving directory where the tile database is kept.

Mazaika lets you work with a wide range of file formats, such as DIB, GIF, PCD, RGB, SCR, TGA, TIFF, WIN, JPG, PPM, and PSD. Plus, you can paste photos from the clipboard or acquire them via TWAIN devices. You may save the current project to a file on your computer so you can import it in the future.

The mosaic photo can be exported to JPG, TIFF, BMP, HTML, or other file format. When it comes to output settings, the progam lets you draw or hide a grid, apply color corrections, blend tile colors, add colorful borders, adjust the resolution, and sharpen tiles.

You can enhance the quality of photos by tweaking several editing parameters. You may adjust the sharpness, contrast, brightness, and saturation, as well as set the size of the tiles.

Mazaika gives you the possibility to create a random mosaic, perform batch actions for generating multiple mosaic pictures at the same time, zoom in or out of the current photo, and view the target and source image. Advanced users are not going to be disappointed by the fine-tuning parameters which help them customize mosaic images in detail.

All things considered, Mazaika comes packed with several handy features for helping you design your own mosaic pictures. However, the GUI is not highly intuitive so you may need to experiment a little bit with the configuration settings in order to understand how it works.
