My life in 12 inches.

I want to make a Web page that's basically just a bunch of evenly-sized square tiles which pulls specific album covers (from Amazon or Discogs or...) using some kind of input, whether it's drag-and-drop or entering a source URL or whatever. Is this a thing?

Everyone's doing the "Top 10 albums of my adolescence" thing on Facebook again, and I essentially want to link to a giant fresco of all the albums that have meant something to me.

Someone has already created a tool which does this for Last.fm plays. I'd like to do something similar, but x100 and not pulling from a playlist.

I'm running Wordpress on my own site, but if there's some other tool that already exists to do this, I'd love to see it, even if it's just a gallery plugin.

I'm probably overlooking something impossibly simple/obvious in my search keywords, but lay it on me.

Hmmm...in html i would use percentage widths (like 20% wide for 5 images across) and (since all the images are square) it should fall into a nice grid with little fuss and resize automatically.

Best answer: topsters will let you generate a collage easily and save it as a png image. No need to create an account but if you do it'll let you come back to edit it if you ever want to update it.
