QR Code from Images

You can create QR Codes using any image you upload for the black squares at Hodade. In the image below I used Smileys to create the QR Code for this site. Hodade also have a QR Code generator where the black squares are composed of the QR Code itself.

  3. I was able to access the lower image (eg the black and white) using Quickmark on my HTC Tytyn but I couldn’t access the happy face version.

  4. I was able to read the lower one (built from QR images themselves) with i-nigma on my Samsung BlackjackII.

  5. @dean collins I can’t decode the smiley qr code off the screen either, I just tried. I thought I was able to do so when I checked before uploading. Now I am not so sure because I have tried some other images and I can’t decode those either. Bit of a mystery at the moment….
