Pixel Effect / Mosaic

1. I made this tutorial because I get SO MANY questions in how I do the pixel effect on my photographs. Many probably already know but this is to all the people that don't know. Here we go. Here is a old picture of my old friend. Now I am going to pixelate this image.

2. Go to FILTER > PIXELATE > and MOSAIC. And then start messing with the options on the MOSAIC screen. It's not hard. There is only one setting to mess around with. So you should get it in a snap. That's it! Here we go. Blocky picture at your service. You can do it with other color photo's which makes a cool effect. Also try blurring it as well. It makes some funky blocky smudges.
