Hi again,

made a bunch of requests for 'create strip of images' in this related topic; http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=21594

Have a look at these below;

Visitors to popular websites, such as Flickr, would have likely have come across mosaic style photos like this.

I describe it as 'Jagged Collage' or alternative name 'Scattered Collage' .

Wouldn't be awesome if the 'create strip of images' within XnView had the ability to generate this? :D

...Ability to process+generate multiple images to one file in a 'Jagged Collage' or 'Scattered Collage' fashion. May take up a lot of memory in the process but would be a great feature to have for particular uses.

Additionally further settings for this may need to be considered, which are:
·Auto-calculating of image sizes before creating - displaying calculating process
·Random rotation on each OR equal rotation on each (e.g. all pictures are rotated 45º)
·Image Spacing settings (for each image > wider spacing would mean larger final picture)
·Mask' settings such as a colored border or 'Polaroid' effect border around each image
·Support for anti-aliasing (best quality anti-alias)
·settings for largest picture - centered, top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right
·settings for smallest picture - centered, top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right
