How to Make a Picture Collage on the Web
- 1). Choose a website to make your picture collage. You might want to choose one site over another because it allows you to make larger-size collages or print your collages on items such as calendars and mugs. You can also compare product prices between websites. Some websites allow you to create your collage right on the site, while others require you to download software that will remain linked to the Internet and to the specific site for purchases.
- 2). Download and install software if necessary, or set up a free online account with the website.
- 3). Upload your photo files to the website or software program. In many cases, you will have to upload photos to your account page, and add them to the collage later. Click "upload files" or "add files" and browse your computer's documents for the photos you want to add.
- 4). Browse the program's collage templates or "kits". You will be able to choose between a variety of photo arrangements, backgrounds, color schemes and more. Also browse the available products. Snapfish.com, for example, allows you to print picture collages on mugs, blankets, mouse pads, posters, calendars or books. Select an item, if applicable, and a basic collage template.
- 5). Add your photos to the template. Most programs will allow you to browse your previously uploaded photos and select certain pictures to add to the collages. Other programs will allow you to upload new files at this point.
- 6). Arrange and rearrange the photos within the template until you are satisfied with the collage.
- 7). Add personalized text. You will be able to choose the text size, font and color in most cases.
- 8). Complete the purchase. Specify the quantity and, if applicable, the size of the items you want.
