Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a computer-implemented method for creating a final mosaic image. The method includes receiving a main image from a database of images. The method includes generating a grid overlay having one or more grid cells, the grid overlay being coupled with the main image such that the one or more grid cells each include a portion of the main image to create one or more image cells. The method also determines a tint value for each of the one or more image cells. The method also includes receiving one or more tile images from the database of images, and positioning one of the one or more tile images into each of the one or more image cells to create one or more tiled cells. The method also comprises assigning the tile image positioned in each of the tiled cells the tint value determined for the image cell that each of the tile images has been positioned into to create a polished image.
