Jigsaw Puzzle Maker — Personal Edition

Turn your own photos into beautiful jigsaw puzzles. No subscription. No account. No internet required.

Jigsaw Puzzle Maker is a single HTML file that runs in any modern browser. Download it once, and it's yours forever — works offline, works in ten years, works on the laptop in the back of the cupboard. Your photos never leave your device.

What you get

A complete jigsaw experience built around your photos — holidays, grandchildren, pets, wedding shots, the garden in summer. Import up to 100 images and play puzzles from 16 pieces (easy enough for a quick coffee break) up to 224 pieces (a proper evening's work), with ten different piece shapes to choose from.

Save any puzzle mid-solve and come back to it later — up to 10 unfinished games are remembered. Works on smartphones to desktop computers with large beautiful 32 inch display screens.

More than just puzzles

Every copy includes four ways to enjoy your photos:

• Jigsaw puzzle player — 16 to 224 pieces, 10 piece shapes, save and resume
• Photo gallery with a clean thumbnail grid
• Lightbox viewer for full-screen viewing with pinch-to-zoom
• 3D rotating photo cube showing six photos at once — leave it running as a screensaver

Make jigsaw puzzles for other people

This is where it gets fun. With the Personal Edition you can create unlimited standalone puzzle files to give away. Pick up to 12 of your photos, add a title, click Export — and out comes a self-contained .html puzzle file you can email, drop on a USB stick, or upload to the cloud. Recipients just double-click and play. No installation, no sign-up, nothing to download separately.

Perfect for:

• A birthday gift built from family photos
• A thank-you to wedding guests using the day's pictures
• A personalised activity for a relative in care
• A free promotional puzzle for your photography or craft business

When you're finished with one batch of photos, click Start Over, import the next 100, and make more. There's no limit on how many puzzle files you create.

Your photos stay yours

Everything happens in your browser, on your computer. Photos are stored in your browser's local database — sandboxed, never uploaded, never sent anywhere. No telemetry, no analytics, no "cloud sync." The app doesn't even need an internet connection once you've downloaded it.

What's in the download

A single ZIP file containing:

• jigsaw-puzzle-maker.html — the application itself
• userguide.html — full instructions and quick-start guide

To use it: unzip, double-click the HTML file, and you're in. That's the whole install.
