Mosaic Maker - " Make a mosaic from a photoset, favorites, tags, or individual digital photographs or images. It's a whole world of creative photo possibilities -- themes, colors, shapes. So, get that digital camera out and shoot some photos!" Brilliant website that allows users to go mad with digital images.
