Rick Miklos used a database of 34,230 images which
was made up of the original pictures plus lighter, less colored
and tinted versions of the original pictures. Rick used a sampling
of 12x12 in Mazaika. The mosaic was post-processed in Photoshop
to better match the color of the original. No percentage of the original
image was added when the mosaic was saved from Masaika.
Rick found he got better results if he lightened with the Levels
command and then sharpened his original digital picture in Photoshop
before he brought it into Mazaika.
