Photo Collage - recommendations please

[Ray Singh]

Hello all.

I am looking to create a photo collage. I want the collage to be a word - like family or love built up of my pictures.

I have looked through some online collage makers and they don’t seem to offer this. I am looking for each of my pictures to be around 2cm x 2cm max making up the overall word.

Can anyone recommend a program that would do this?

Whilst i am here - there are some seriously skilled photographers on this forum, I learn new skills and tips every time I visit. Keep it going.

Thanks.

I've never heard of or used it but this one has come up with a search. Any good?

You could assemble it in Photoshop, copy/pasting each image in turn and rotating/resizing as required. However I'd suggest you resize each iamge to 800 - 1000px first otherwise your canvas and filesize will be enormous.

Cool. Definitely looks like an easier option than creating it image by image in Photoshop!

Thank you very much fellow PH'ers.

I will give this a go. I am a novice with things like this and even my attempts at photography would shock you.

I will keep reading and learning.

Thank you again.
