I have a color picture of a friend that I would like to convert to a picture using dots of four different sizes on a set grid. The eventual goal is to drill the holes into wood as a portrait. Posting from my phone otherwise I would link to the imgur post where a guy did a similar project with a map of the world.

Any ideas on how to get the pic to dot form?

edit: Here is the imgur project. http://imgur.com/gallery/8iOvx

AH! Here's a perfect example.

Anyone know how I could convert a photo to this?

And it looks like with a bit more digging on my own, there's a website call the rasterbator that will do it all for me. Thanks anyway.
