Software to Divide an Image Into Discrete Patterns

slashyslashy asks: "My preschooler son is fond of color-by-number pages. We have already exhausted most of the online sites that offer somewhat limited sets of coloring pages that he can print to a paper and color. Besides, most of them offer extremely basic (read boring) sets of simple images (flowers, dinosaurs, etc). We were wondering if we can take any regular picture image and convert it into a pattern suitable (divide up the black and white picture into series of random patterns) for color-by-number pages. Is there any good software that allows converting a picture to a pattern suitable for coloring by numbers? Linux is preferable but Windows is also fine. Thank you."

This program is supposed to be able to convert photos to color by number pictures, suitable for paint, crayon, etc. I haven't tried it, but it does have a free trial and is $19.95 to buy. http://www.stoik.com/hobby/colorbynumber.htm
