Mosaic Tutorial

This tutorial will teach you to add a cool effect to your images!

001. Firstly, open the image you're going to use. I'll be using this pic of Mandy Moore I got from starpulse.com.

002. Duplicate the layer (Ctrl + J).
003. Go to Filter >> Pixelate >> Mosaic and put the cell size somewhere around 30 square.

004. Now go to Filter >> Sharpen >> Sharpen to add some detail to your squares =) Do it again if you like.

005. Now the fun part :). Change the layer's blending mode to 'Overlay'. And that's it! If it's too much, change the opacity a bit. Here's mine with a bit of brushes and stuff:

And viola! Hope it works for you!
