title: Creating mosaic/tiled image effect with jquery
body: <p>Is there a way to create the effect <a href="http://msi.com/language/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">shown here on msi.com</a> main image? Though done in flash, I'd prefer doing it with jquery.  I've also tried with 'mosaic generators', but haven't been able to replicate the effect well, but use of a generator with js would be acceptable too.</p>
  <p>[edit]  I failed to mention, I'm only interested in emulated the tiled/mosaic aspect of the effect, not animation.  I'd like a large image (e.g. 400px by 300px) separated by whitespace (or color customizable borders) into 9 equally sized blocks or tiles each.</p>
  <p>While I would like to apply a individual hover effect to each image, giving each the effect they are separate entities, I don't necessarily need any further animation.</p>
  <p>Rounded corners aren't important or wanted.
