public class VectorRibbon
extends MosaicEngine

This engine walks through each row of a Pic and places the best tile there. "Best" is determined by subtracting the precalculated MosaicVectors from the Pic and summing the different in each pixel. This is performed from each tile in the set, and the one with the least difference is chosen.
