BrickLink has rolled out the open beta for their newest feature called Mosaick. It is basically a tool to allow anyone to turn an image into a digital LEGO mosaic. This also allows users to adjust resolution and size to their preference and price points.
After you upload an image, Mosaick gives you a number of options for shape, size (5x5in.-60x60in.), color, and part type (plate, tile, brick). It also gives you an estimated price as well as a parts list to show which elements are need to recreate a particular image. I did a mosaic of my logo to see how it looks and it seems to be running pretty smoothly.

Does that estimate for a bunch of 1×1’s really say over 600 dollars?
Yeah, i looked into doing this a while ago and worked out that its ridiculously expensive. Shame really.
The program automatically selects ALL existing colours, even the ones you cannot buy in large quantities anymore (e.g. sand blue, purple,…). There should be a possibility to exclude certain colours to avoid these ridiculously high prices.
