Mosaizer XVi
What it is
Mosaizer XVi is a desktop application for creating photo mosaics and photo art effects. Its tools include colour matching, a grayscale engine, shape masks, transparent tiles, greenscreen options, textures, and non-rectangular picture shapes. A custom tile library is available for reusable tile collections. For very large prints, XVi can build mosaics in sections and stitch those sections together. It can also create animated mosaics and make mosaics from video clips. The application is standalone software for Windows, optimized for Windows 10 and 11, with 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Windows 2000 and later are supported except Windows XP. On macOS, it can run inside a Windows environment such as Parallels or Wine. Installation and use require administrator rights. Pricing is listed from €29, with a free plan and free trial; the freeware-with-unlock option costs $19 once.
