my tribute to the greatest work of art ever (IMHO).. Mona lisa, and the best art community in the world.. dA! ..

** please view full size !! **

this took about 2 weeks to make, one week for collecting the avatars and a week or so for making the final image (working on spare time)

the process ....

first i collected the avatars keeping in mind the colors that might be needed, in this case for the skin tone range and darker background.

then i used acdsee 3 to convert everything to bmp, this was required coz the avatars were mixed format and also most were animated.

the third step was to arrange the basic montage, i used metapixel [link] a free command line tool under linux to create it. but keep in mind that u might have to experiment quite a bit before u get a decent base image

the last step was to import the image into photoshop and use individual avatars to fine tune it (remove multiple instances, replace ones that didnt match etc). for this particular image it took about 60 layers

finally i wish to thank everyone yet again for the time they spent on watching and commenting ..

******


below is the list of people who's avatars i used ... with a BIG thanks to them ...

* if any of you feel that your avatar must not be used here, please note me and i will remove it .. if possible please add a bit more detail about the location as well *
