#Photomosaic Generator
System to generate photomosaics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_mosaic). A complete system that contains not only the image processing/generating functionality, and image indexer to collect images from various public sources online
##Requirements
- Go (https://golang.org/)
- Go resize (https://github.com/nfnt/resize)
- https://bitbucket.org/liamstask/go-imgur
- https://github.com/gedex/go-instagram
- https://github.com/manki/flickgo
- https://github.com/ChimeraCoder/anaconda
- https://github.com/lucasb-eyer/go-colorful
##Usage
- The project will produce two binaries, mosaicgen and indexer. Run indexer to build a collection of images (based on a keyword) to use as sources for the photomosaic. Run mosaicgen /path/to/source/img to produce the photomosaic.
##Examples
Source Image
Tiles Based On Average Colour
Tiles Based on algorithm by Matt Cutts (https://www.mattcutts.com/blog/photo-mosaic-effect-with-go/)
Photomosaic (tile image can be reused)
##TODO
- Try to make it faster
- Implement method to use a tile image only once
