    • Dylson, on 03/08/2008, -23/+53Are you joking me? This is the stupidest thing I have ever seen.
    • ritzcracker, on 03/08/2008, -25/+59Why don't you just drop his pants and suck on his dick?
      • tlm2021, on 03/08/2008, -13/+27The artist did it on request for Fortune magazine. Why don't you stop being a prick and do something worthwhile yourself.

        Feel free to reply when you've had your work printed in a nationally respected magazine.
        • ritzcracker, on 03/08/2008, -5/+4I realized that but i was referring to the person who requested a high res version of this picture.
          Read much?
      • Zindrix, on 03/08/2008, -9/+11Uh oh, looks like you offended a fanboy...GJ
      • towle_42, on 03/08/2008, -0/+1because he is not worthy, duh.

      • mattbeetee, on 03/08/2008, -1/+3I'm no fan of Jobs, but you've got to hand it to him - he is an excellent businessman.
    • Urkel, on 03/08/2008, -1/+13Owning a high res version is the equivalent to wearing a "I have no idea how to please a woman" badge.

      I love my Mac but I've never understood the culture of worshipping a company you pay money to. If they give you a free Mac once a year then go ahead and put his poster on your wall. But since they don't then stick to wanking it to a Mary Lou Retton Wheaties box.
    • mistergoomba, on 03/08/2008, -0/+2it's steve jobs' wallpaper...
    • 5urr3al5am, on 03/08/2008, -4/+2Dumb people will secretly look for ways to put themselves above others.. and then prance around pretending like they're hot *****
    • chrisxkelley, on 03/08/2008, -0/+2I love how nobody stops to think that he might have meant that this is amazing work, and not the fact that it's Steve himself. Any picture made out of a million little things like this is going to be awesome if done well, and the artist deserves the credit.
  • sourceholder, on 03/08/2008, -37/+210"title says it all.. ;-)".... Lame.
    • timusca, on 03/08/2008, -10/+38Can I see the photo in the title? No...
      • TheKrillr, on 03/08/2008, -2/+15You wouldn't have been able to see the image in a description either, so does it matter?

    • DuxBelorum, on 03/08/2008, -0/+1Seriously...
      I mean pictures are supposed to be worth a thousand words right? That description only has four (Well, eleven if you include what is in the title.)

    Thanks a lot!
    • timusca, on 03/08/2008, -1/+49Excellent work, man... out of curiosity, how long did it take you?
      • tsevis, on 03/08/2008, -4/+161Thanks a lot, timusca.
        I am creating mosaic since the year 2000. So I have passed log times developing my own techniques.
        Therefore, creating the final piece is not so much time taking.
        The longest part is preparing the tiles.
        This mosaic was an illustration for Fortune magazine. The Art Director asked me for a mosaic portrait of Steve Jobs made out of Apple products of the last 2-3 years. So I had to download every Apple product from the Apple PR site, create Alpha channels and make some corrections.
        This took about 2-3 days for about 200 images.
        Then I made some roughs and I collaborated with the Fortune staff for the selections of the base photo.
        When we choose the right one I prepared some more roughs till this one and the one in black background that you can see in my Flickr photo stream.
        Every mosaic is consisted of 5 layers with different sizes of tiles using my own scripts in a program amed Studio Artist. Then I made the final composition in Adobe Photoshop.
        The whole work lasted something like 10 days.
        But it was really fun to do it, as I am a mosaic addict and a big Apple and Steve Jobs' fan.

        If you want to see all the work see this set:

        • ruddy, on 03/08/2008, -2/+8how long have you been waiting to answer that one? good work though!
        • slambert90, on 03/08/2008, -0/+7The black version is the best

    • taffyhealscrowd, on 03/08/2008, -20/+11That's great. Now, just wondering, in your fantasies are you sucking Steve Job's ***** or his balls?

    • alphakappa, on 03/08/2008, -0/+3Can you tell us how you do your mosaics? This is seriously impressive.
      • tsevis, on 03/08/2008, -0/+14Hi alphakappa!
        If you look in my Flickr stream you will find many mini tutorials.
        I guess I have to improve my english and write a detailed tutorial as many people ask me.

        I have some things already written. But it's all in greek language, wich is my mother language.
        If you like, take a look at my blog (maybe with an online translator) http://tsevis.blogspot.com

        Thanks for the kind words.
  • timusca, on 03/08/2008, -2/+48He cheated a little bit... I see default Leopard desktop images in there but in red, orange, and yellow. Those colors aren't available on the OS, are they?
    • tsevis, on 03/08/2008, -1/+61Totally right, mate.
      It's quite impossible to create realistic orange and pink skin tones with the latest apple products. There are not enough skin colored.
      That's why I used different desktops.
      • timusca, on 03/08/2008, -0/+35Still, very impressive... I wasn't trying to call you out or anything, trust me. I'm really impressed!
        • tsevis, on 03/08/2008, -0/+43No problem at all.
          On the contrary I am impressed that you found the cheat. Seems like you really know Apple products.
    • ttamshadbolt, on 03/08/2008, -1/+3impressive - good work... however there are an awful lot of firewire icons in there...
  • NsinU8, on 03/08/2008, -6/+121I like apple too but wtf?
    • badqat, on 03/08/2008, -5/+19I can't quite understand why some folk are so intent on running their tongues straight down Jobs' trousers...
    • JesusHatesYou, on 03/08/2008, -13/+5Steve Blowjobs is a god to Apple fanboys. These are the same idiots who whine about Windows being bloatware and Microsoft being a monopoly. Yet, as a non-iPod or iTunes user, if I want a digital download of a song from Apple, I've got to install that 40MB bloat called iTunes and if I want to transfer it, I've got to use iTunes. F^$$ Apple!
    • j0313971, on 03/08/2008, -8/+1You know, I never really understood why people have to ***** cuss. I mean, it doesn't help to get the ***** point across. it only offends *****. Go ***** yourself, you ***** *****!!!!

    • manicblvd, on 03/08/2008, -9/+4Best comment ever. I dont know what's better though, the comment or the reactions. I hope all these angry nerds cry into their Obama-shaped pillows and ponder why they can't take a joke.
      • Grahamajdale, on 03/08/2008, -1/+4WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?
      • JudgeMonkey, on 03/09/2008, -0/+1joke:

        * a humorous anecdote or remark intended to provoke laughter; "he told a very funny joke"; "he knows a million gags"; "thanks for the laugh"
        * jest: activity characterized by good humor

        Kill the blacks, hail Scientology..... I'm not seeing the connection to humor.
        • manicblvd, on 03/11/2008, -0/+1Sorry, maybe if it were typed in "lolcat" or as a reference to 300 or something you'd see the correlation.
    • JudgeMonkey, on 03/09/2008, -0/+1I almost feel compelled to digg it up because it brings forth the excellent topic that there is, for some reason, an alt code for a tilted swastika.

  • Goodbyeworld, on 03/08/2008, -16/+116Isn't the Steve Jobs obsession becoming a little obnoxious?

    He built a company that is innovative, stylish, and extremely expensive. Good job, Jobs. Now lets move on.
    • tsevis, on 03/08/2008, -4/+53Hi Goodbyeworld!
      I am the creator of this mosaic portrait of Steve Jobs.
      I admit that I could be guilty for Apple fanboism. But, believe me, this work is done to illustrate a special about Steve Jobs in a magazine. Not just for fan.
      If you wanna read about it see here:
      http://www.flickr.com/photos/tsevis/2311088410/
      Thanks!
      • Goodbyeworld, on 03/08/2008, -0/+24Well thank you for explaining.

        My problem is not with the artwork. I find it very impressive, and I think you are a great artist to be able to produce this. My problem is the people who idolize Steve Jobs, and will digg this just because it says "Steve Jobs" or has anything to do with "Apple".

        In all honesty, Steve Jobs is a visionary, but he does nothing. He is a public figure who assigns the best of the best to do their job, and they do it. Let us, as a society, quit being so shallow and materialistic.

        Thanks!
        • tsevis, on 03/08/2008, -2/+15I see your point. And of course, even for a Steve fan like me, I suppose you re right.
          But, I am sure that you know how digg is: A funny - sometimes scary and hilarious - digital battlefield for people with a lot of energy that has to be taken out.
          Anyway...
          C u around.
          Thanks for the kind words.
        • Syphon8, on 03/08/2008, -1/+15Also, he's a douchebag.
      • bliz, on 03/08/2008, -2/+1not just for fun or for fans?

    • Retnuh730, on 03/08/2008, -3/+21Welcome to digg where nobody obsesses over anything, ever.
      /sarcasm
    • H0tKarl, on 03/08/2008, -1/+7Sadly, Steve will probably take credit for this work as well.
    • samssf, on 03/08/2008, -4/+5Expensive? Sure. Extremely expensive? No. You pay a little more for apple products because you're paying for the design. But other than that, if you compare Apple hardware itself to competitors... apples to apples (no pun intended), Apple often times ends up being a good value. I don't mind paying 5%-10% more for the design, when I'm also getting great functionality, usability, performance, and reliability.
    • HarbingerZero, on 03/08/2008, -4/+1"He built a company that is innovative, stylish, and extremely expensive. Good job, Jobs. Now lets move on." Solid understatement. Next.
  • 2h3px, on 03/08/2008, -4/+14I like how the awkward title with the wrong possesive "says it all".
    • pucelle, on 03/08/2008, -0/+1english teacher shut up
    • chrisxkelley, on 03/08/2008, -0/+1Could just be that he's making an image of *a* Steve Jobs face. It isn't actually Steve Jobs in the picture, but whoever it is, he's making a Steve Jobs face.

    • xt0ph3r, on 03/08/2008, -1/+8Why don't you just uncheck the Apple category? Sure, you'd still see stuff outside the Tech>Apple category, but it would cut down on the stuff you don't want to see.

        • chrisxkelley, on 03/08/2008, -0/+4I was going to digg you down because I don't like the comment that you've made nor your position/viewpoint on the subject matter... But that's a damn good point.

    • sfacets, on 03/08/2008, -0/+1Nobody seriously takes Steve Jobs as a head of a cult of personality. That's just a PC user take on the situation (still living in communist times?). A person who likes Macs may get infatuated with the product, but seriously? Most of us don't care that much about Steve.
