Is there any way to create a tile archive directly from images stored on a network drive? When I click "Add Folder" my mapped network drives do not show up, and dragging and dropping the folder doesn't seem to work either. While I could try to copy all my images locally, I'd rather not...

... and though it feels highly redundant to say it, great software!

You are right! This feature is missing. A simple workaround is to map your network drive locally, so that you don't need to copy all the files. In Windows Explorer do a right click on the network folder and select Map Network Drive or something like that. This is just a logical alias, to allow programs (like AndreaMosaic) to work with network drives even if they don't support them. No performance loss except for the fact that a network drive is slower due to the network overhead (unless you may have a Gigabit network with a very fast disk).
