When the conversation first came about over at Family History Across the Seas there was a debate of how the collage was created.
On the day I felt like creating my collage I was not within easy reach of the software package I had planned to you. Being a little lazy to walk up 30 stairs to my study I wondered if I could create something on line, free of charge.
Here enters the website PhotoVisi. Now, I was a first time user to the site. I have to say it was fairly easy. So, get a cup of tea, ensure you have access to the digital images and then click the link to the website.
- PhotoVisi
- Select choose a design and then hit enter
- Click on the large + button at the top left and add your photos (clicking on add photos each time)
- Click Finish and select the resolution you require
- Hit continue
- Then you can download your collage
A box appears giving you the option to email, send your collage to Face Book or Tweet it, you can simply hit the X and towards the bottom of the page is your collage to download.
So if you thought perhaps you could not make a photo collage, oh yes you can!

Hi Julie,
ReplyDeleteHere to welcome you to the 2013 A-Z Challenge! I absolutely LOVE your wallpaper. I do not quilt, but I collect family heirloom quilts and you made me feel right at home. I wish you well in the challenge, and look forward to reading more of your posts. I like your collage and your directions are very good. (I'm a former math/English teacher turned office manager/HR, turned into homeschooling mom and am now oh so happily at home, kids in school, and spending far more time blogging and writing than I should. Oh well ;-)

Hi Tina,
DeleteThanks for stopping by and your kind words about the blog. As to spending too much time blogging & writing. Well, life is short and we should spend our time doing what we enjoy. Looking forward to the A-Z Challenge. Last year I linked it in to a trip to Australia and my ancestral links. This year will be of a revisiting and expansion following from our recent trip to Australia. We waited ages and then it was gone in a flash!
Thanks for setting this out as it was an easy way to create the collage. The slowest part was choosing the photos and I opted for the straight line version because I kept wanting to change the sequence which messed up the fan effect.
ReplyDeleteGlad it helped Pauline. I know choosing was the tricky bit!
DeleteI went to take a look, even though I use photoshop, but they said it doesn't work with Macs. I used to use this free, online application to do birthday collages. You can chose the size of 4 x 7 which would give you 28 so it would work for 28 too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link to the Mac friendly site. I had not considered about Mac users so apologies for that.
Deleteopps, the link for Mosaic Maker is http://bighugelabs.com/mosaic.php
