Now you can create your photo mosaic.

You just click the Create Mosaic button and wait until the software tells you that it has completed your mosaic. Depending on the size of the images and number of tiles, this may take some minutes. Click Yes when it asks if you would like to open the destination folder. This is where the mosaic will have been saved and is generally the same folder where the original photo was saved.

If you're not happy with the final result, simply try again with different settings or try adding more photos for the tiles.
