#Photobricks windows 10 how to

i may just need to take the time to plan it out old fashion like on there during my upcoming break. I wish there was an easy way to get that into LDD to mess around with it. wow that is impressive only 955 parts vs the 4050 I was looking at with studs or 2687 parts with plates up to 2 x (X)s. Perhaps I should find some spare time to polish it up and release it. I've written my program in Java, so it should be able to run on Windows, Linux, Mac, web servers, etc. Total price: £76.84 (vs £243.00 if it were made from 1x1 plates)

I've also restricted the largest square plate size to 6圆, as it seems really difficult to push larger plates onto a baseplate without your fingers falling off. here's what I get, restricting it to the colours that are available from the Pick A Brick service (i.e. I figured if I stick to black and white stuff for now, then I'll be able to make lots of different things without having to buy too many plates. Here's the parts list it generated for my cat (in no particular order). I think I need to work on the user-friendliness bit :) It would probably be easiest (for me) to implement it as a web service that people can upload images to. It would be awesome to be commissioned to make a huge mosaic of a company's logo, but I suspect there aren't that many interested in having a logo made out of Lego. Now that's what I call real Lego Star Wars :) I've since modified it to encode videos into Lego plates layouts. The algorithm does not always produce the cheapest layout (that would be an NP-complete problem in computer science terms), but it's pretty close to the optimal solution, and I think I prefer the irregular 'random' layout of tiles to a regular tiled pattern. In the above example, I've restricted the largest square plate to 6圆 anyway. It supports plates up to 16x16 in size, but those are only available in a few colours. There's no interactivity yet, and I'm not sure there will be, as I only wrote it to produce a layout for myself (it's surprising how productive you can be when you haven't got an internet connection for an evening.) Another nice function would be if it could spit out a parts list of all the pieces in their desired it's still a work in progress, but I've fully automated the process of turning a photo or other image into a reduced colour version, using either all Lego colours, greyscales, or just whatever colours are readily available from the Lego shop. What I like with yours already out of the gate, is that the sections have division lines between the plates.

You should give it a spin to see how your app compares in functionality. So will need to use a different app if you want to make a bigger or smaller sized one. The other restraint is that it is confined to the default grid size I used. It also allows you to choose the type of color scheme of the mosaic, to a limited point. I'm not familiar with what a 'PNG' version means? I used the iPhone app named Lego Photo to convert the normal pic.

Definitely wasn't the cost efficient way to do it, but now I know better for the future.

I did this as my first MOC before I learned how to use Bricklink, so parts were gathered by breaking up Creator sets like Highway Transport or Prehistoric Hunters. ^^Thanks I was only able to use large plates for the black sections, but most other colors & areas had to use small sized plates like 2x2 corners, 1x3, 1x1, etc.
