No, this in not an innovation in masterbation. You should have guessed that by the simple fact that you are in the graphics forum. :P

Check it out here: http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/

The Rasterbator is a web service which creates huge, rasterized images from any picture. The rasterized images can be printed and assembled into extremely cool looking posters up to 20 meters in size. O_O

here is what it does with a quick example I found on another site, I thought it was really cool and I am going to have ago sometime soon!

This is the original image:

Here is what it looks like after being rasterbated and printed:

Huh. :S

You mean the outcome you got was shite? So was my first attempt, you have to try a few times and tweak it a little bit to get it to look just right. :P
