The picture is divided into a grid of studs and each one gets the closest of 24 common brick colors. The preview shows the bricks with their round studs, so you can judge the result before buying a single piece.
For a real build, the tool reports how many 1 × 1 pieces of each color you need and how large the finished mosaic will be on standard 8 mm studs. The parts list downloads as a CSV file.

Tips for the best result
- Crop tightly to the face first; a mosaic has few pixels to spare.
- Raise the contrast if the result looks flat; brick colors are limited.
