Flickr Favourites Mosaic and How to Get Mosaic Links

One Little Acorn has recently been playing with the Mosaic Maker over at Big Huge Labs. She was wondering how to get the links to the photos. Of course, that seemed like far more fun to play with than marking tests like I should be....

This is a mosaic I made with some of my Flickr favourites.



1. Hiyori, 2. Labels, 3. Mushroom House: Red, 4. SPFW inverno 2008 - by Ronaldo Fraga, 5. cupids, 6. Grace, 7. Passport Wallet-Kokeshi Dolls (Interior), 8. Passport Wallet-Kokeshi Dolls, 9. shibori furoshiki

After you hit the "create button" it takes you (after a short wait) to a page with your new mosaic. Under that is a box that says "Copy this html...".

Do that, and you have your links! Mind you, this will only work if you've got the photos from Flickr (or I believe another online source). You can't get links for photos you've uploaded directly from your computer files.

Thanks, I've been wondering that same question since One Little Acorn asked...I had no clue!

Thanks for that! I don't use flickr much and because of that I use Photoshop to do that effect instead. I think I should use flickr...it is so much easier.

Thank you so much Melanie! Tried and tested and it works beautifully. I couldn't have done it without you and Leni and Rose.
THIS is why I love to blog. Such creativity - and such amazing people.

Wow! This was truly a bizarre experience. I've been reading your blog for ages and saw this entry and had to do a double take... was that one of my photos? Yep, it was! Thank you for liking my photo enough to include it :)
