Someone here shared a modification to Dr. di Blasi's java program removing (well reasonably) the size limitations that use to be with his code. Will not share that person's identity, but I hope that person shares that code here should that person decide to do so. I won't share the identity though or the code since that code's not mind to do so. I'm just fantastically grateful for it. Did, of course, add some G'MIC blends for the final result (including extracting the bird but had to do some cut pasting of the base layer since, well, I wasn't perfect with choosing the red and green dots. lol).

Hi lylejk,
No problem to share the modified program, here it is (mosaic1.jar), I just forgot to do it !
After http, gbotet.perso.sfr.fr/mosaic/
The new size limitation is 20000000 pixels (instead of 1960000 pixels).
And thank you for the Web Archive tip that allowed me to get it !
Best regards to Gimp friends,

Cool GP; no issue not to just make it a link. Worth it.
