a buddy of mine is asking me about it, and i haven’t a clue 
he wants to know if the collages and mosaics look good and after the learning curve are easy to do. i guess he’s about over making his own collages!
if you use jetpack and could tell a little about it or link to a post made with it, that would rawk!
Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
I do, yeh the collages look decent enough, check this link out for an example - http://wp.me/pSVWM-oQ8

Michael uses the mosaic feature from Jetpack on his blog Joe Spunk
Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
Yes, I like the mosaics and use them regularly.
Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
those mosaics look good - thanks!
Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
Never used jetpack, but the mosiac look is in vogue, so you may be wise to search around for something suitable.
Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
I’m actually rethinking my use of Jetpack’s mosaic feature. My theme makes 19 thumbs in all the various sizes for each image uploaded through “add media,” and since there’s no way to restrict this only to the featured image, that means 10 images uploaded for a mosaic will result in 190 thumbnails added for one post.
I’ve searched for a solution, but can’t find one.

Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
I stayed away from Jetpack when I first heard about it a few years ago because I read that it is a resource hog and slows down a blogs performance. Is that no longer true?
This is from two years ago:

Interesting article and kind of confirms what I thought. Back when I was researching this I found this free plugin that apparently provides the JetPack mosaic feature without having to install JetPack. I never tried this though. Would be interested to know if this works for anyone here.

I am finding though that “lightbox” features aren’t manipulated well if they are theme inherent.
Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
Jetpack also provides stats right in your dashboard, and I find this more convenient than logging into Analytics, which I find increasingly hard to understand.
There are a couple of other features that I’ve been wanting to look at, but I haven’t had time.

Isn’t that the truth.
Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
I use several features of this plugin.
Quite useful plugin.
Re: is anyone here still using jetpack for their blogs?
I’m bringing back this thread for two reasons: to mention another masonry/mosaic plugin I found that looks interesting called Gallery Factory Lite:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/gallery-factory-lite/
And also to ask if anyone uses the Photon feature of Jetpack to store your images. The TOS states that nudity is OK but not explicit sexual acts so I was wondering if anyone is ignoring that and using Jetpack as a CDN to store and feed your gay porn sex photos.
