Hi guys. I need your help.

I dont know how to describe this, but Ill give it a try;
I wanna make a big collage of many pictures (say 50x75 tiny pictures) and when looking at them from a distance, you see a big picture bulit of it. (Did you get it? 8) )

I have seen one, once. It was a poster of Yoda. From a distance, I just saw a pixilated picture of yoda, but when comming closer, I noticed there was many pictures from the film.

So, my question is. How do I do this? Is there a Plugin for Photoshop?
Im thinking of doing a poster like this as a Christmas Present to my girlfriend, with lots of pictures of our doughter.

So, any help is really appreciated.

Thanks
