Can you make the Mona Lisa out of only 50 colored polygons? HECK YA!

That's quite cool, though I'm not sitting around for 2 days to get an accurate image.

Why are you still using Chrome???



It sounds like an interesting idea but it processes so slowly.

On its own it may be quite nice, but as it doesn't support extensions that's like saying your Morris Minor is better than my Ferrari which hasn't had its engine fitted. The only advantage chrome has from my experience is that it can use multiple cores, but when it has no extensions with which to use them it's pointless.

And yes that image thing is quite nice, but being random it does take ages to produce something that could be done by hand a lot faster, I even tried doing a simple sphere and it took ages to make something that didn't look that much like it.

The process may be slow, but it's still useful in many areas to get the optimum of just about anything.

I left it on all night, and I'm leaving it on all day today and tomorrow. If I don't get something that looks like the Mona Lisa I'm gonna be pissed.

I seriously doubt anybody could do this by hand with 50 polygons

Why? I imagine better could be done if you had the right tools. Also remember that these are 6 vertex polygons, not triangles.
