Lou might be a Luddite, but you’re not. So before you head out to get an expensive enlargement made, hit the web. BlockPosters.com will turn any photo into a poster using the printer in your home or office. Tell it how many sheets you want to use, upload your pic, and seconds later it’ll spit back a PDF. Hit print, piece together the sheets, and you’ve got yourself one pixeliscous photo poster! BlockPosters.com p.s. Eagle-eyed Jojo Fans might recall the similar Rasterbator we covered last April. The difference? Rasterbator gives your photos a newspaper-like dotted quality, while Block Posters preserves the appearance of the original photo. Both are pretty nifty! p.p.s. Hallmark Day’s comin’ up. (Typically a big deal over here.) If you’re still searching for the perfect thing, it might be a great time to start a mailable mosaic to someone you love. Also: Craft: Magazine selected our photo blocks as one of their Valentine’s Day projects.

[...] Ok I better just tell you what it is. The programs name is “Rasterbator“. Stop chuckling and really see what this is. It will take any image that you input and can convert it into a massive poster. This is done through rastering the image into several dots. You may not understand what this is but a good example is any newsprint image or comic book graphics. This basically means the image is broken down into dots that are all of different sizes. The dots are then printed in a grid pattern. The dots that are larger seem closer together and thereby make the darker areas of the image. If you throw color into the mix you get the same thing except you will also get a range of colors depending on the size of the red, green, or blue dots. Its a really cool way of making your own poster. Kinda similar to the one featured on Photojojo. I prefer Rasterbator because after all I can download the file and use it as a standalone. [...]

[...] In the spirit of yesterday’s post, I decided to visit my usual photo haunts. One of the best being Photojojo. Lo and behold it’s their 1st birthday! So, if you haven’t visited, there’s a whole year’s worth of content to browse. So many projects and fun stuff to do it’ll take you a whole year to go through the DIY goodness. My favorites are the most recent video panorama (dooood!) and the block posters. Have a camera? Into farting around with fun stuff? Photojojo’s the place. Happy birthday. Can’t wait to see what the next year brings! [...]

Though quality may significantly be lower, these wall posters can still be very eye–catching. [...]
