mixpixx

What is the mixpixx application?

There’s that old saying that a picture is worth a thousand words.  What if you took a bunch of pictures and made it one big picture?  Would that picture be worth a million words?  Well such a rhetorical question may finally be answered with mixpixx.

Once mixpixx is installed you can create collages that are made from the pictures in your friends’ facebook profiles.  The collage has a stained glass look to it, the pictures are connected with jagged edges.  Customization of the picture includes adding a border of varying thickness and color.  If you don’t like how it’s arranged, you can reshuffle the image.

The resulting image can be saved in your mixpixx album, which is automatically created for you in your photo album section of your facebook profile.  Images can be printed off, saved, or posted on your website.

Here’s the one that I made

It’s a pretty simple process and a fun application.  I would like to see the ability to use other pictures from you facebook albums or to be able to have certain pictures repeated.  At this point you have to select at least three people.  It seems you may have more variety in creating collages at their website.

Pros

• Easy way to create memorable images that capture your friends’ profile pictures
• Automatically created photo album to save your collages

Cons

• Can only use profile pictures
• Picture arragment is completely random
