20,000 WoW Players Complete Giant Photo Mosiac

[x0ny]

Cool pic, but still glad I crawled out of that game alive.

Wow Blizzard actually pay their artists to do this all day?

Time to go to art school

 

[WestMountain]

Thats really cool :]

I helped with this, even though I don't play WoW anymore. I thought it was a neat idea. I even spent an hour drawing a paladin onto the Alliance image, which was kind of a waste of time seeing as it constitutes, what, 0.002% of the whole image? Still, fun to do. It's certainly impressive completed.

 

[Toastngravy]

Hahahaha.

I amused myself.
While it was loading, I was randomly scrolling around looking at images. I found Gabe Newell.

That made the chance of my computer exploding almost worth it.

 

[Ultrajoe]

Damn, my picture never made it in... Still, Lok'tar I guess.

Anyone see the singer for Cannibal Corpse?

 

[Roboto]

It's nice aside from the fact that about half of the images have nothing to do with WoW at all. Such as a nice picture of a baby's face in the top right corner, and about a quarter are pictures of peoples' cats..

I think as long as it had a horde or alliance symbol in it, it was accepted. So you could submit your dog for the Alliance if you wanted.

I did see the pets with symbols on it, but there were the ever present pictures that did not, like the baby I mentioned. If it was tattood on in skin-tone paint or invisible ink, then yes it counts. Since I cannot prove either to be true, it does not.

Oh god, I remember that guy.

How do you kill that which has no life?

"That is not dead which can eternal lie.
And with strange aeons even death may die."

O R'lyeh?

I opened up the 14400x6150 jpg on Firefox and it nearly broke my internet. Epic indeed

Old mosaic is old. People at EVE Online's forums have been doing this for ages with ingame player portraits.

Yeah but unlike Eve Wow's fun :O

No, you didn't! :O

Ok.


Anyway, how many hours did that mosaic take to make, I wonder?

Several is my guess.

I think it took in the order of anything between "a while" and "why the fuck is this taking so long?". (Read: a night and 48 hours).

Friend we do not see eye to eye
Unless we agree to disagree,
Ceaseless enemies will we forever be.
Knowing this I say to you,

You have these choices two.
Opinions held by you are either wrong,
Unless I was trolling you all along.

Ummmmm, would you like my internet?
And my soul?

Nah, scratch the second one, sold it already. Not for much though, only $50 AU.

 

[Belbe]

Grats Bliz! I love how they come up with original and cool ideas like this, if only I can still afford the subscription or had any time to still play...

 

[Ben Legend]

Pretty good I must say, good to see the players have time to waste.

 

[liveslowdiefast]

I used have a simpsons puzzle like that!

 

[Johnmw]

Hehe just spotted someone dressed as an Imperial Stormtrooper....with a Horde insignia, nothing short of epic.

 

[MrPop]

That is awesome.

Takes a hella long time to load though. There's a picture near the top left of someone in Disney Land :O

 

[Latinidiot]

what a hell of a job that must've been.

 

[RanD00M]

I find it funny how about 70% of the people there are male.
And that about 20% of the women are rather good looking.

Awesome mosiac.I wish that I could have been a part of it.But I din´t know of this until now.

- despite Blizzard's obvious and disgusting Horde bias.

I don't think it's a bias. I don't play WoW myself, but my friend who does has informed me that almost all of his friends play Horde because most new kids who tend to annoy the heck out of people play Alliance (his words, not mine).
