Saw this, thought of you guys and saw it hasn't been posted before (converts photos to vector stipple images). Free is good...

It also does TSP (traveling salesman problem) images which could be fun with a laser. That is an image which is drawn out as a single line which never crosses itself-

"2 hours and 23 minutes later I had a 20×20 cm piece of paper with about a 1000 holes in it and it looks awesome!"

Wow, that's crazy slow. Wonder what they are doing to take so long. That's like a 10 minute job, max , not sure how they got to 2 hours and 23 minutes of run time.
