| 232366 | 2004-04-27 03:32:00 | hi ya, prepare for waffle... i have been asked to compile some of my Jeep photos together and put them in a frame, with a large photo in middle with smaller photos dotted around the outside of pic, what program would you suggest i use for this? or should i just copy and take each seperate piic and get printed and glue on to cardboard....then into frame? this is a present to give as a thank you for a 4X4 sponsor, it will be on show hopefully for all customers to see, i tried to fiddle around with it in paint but as am not a graphics / artist type person am a bit lost. Finepix wont see some of the photos i want to use so i am stuck on that one.... any help appreciated. i have no idea what size he wants this yet, but im picking photo's average size. any ideas? i always get the good ones....... and have no idea what to do with them.... is this where irfanview would come in handy???? beetle |

Paintshop Pro can do the job no problem but it is shareware, not free. The GIMP is free and ought to do it but I am not certain how easy it would be to do. If you can find GIMP tutorials on the internet like you can with PSP it would help a lot. |

| 232370 | 2004-04-27 05:59:00 | Microsoft Word would be the easiest to use, Have done something like you are thinking of in the past and I was using MS Word 97 then. now up to MS Office XP. cheers merlin-nz ;-) |

| 232373 | 2004-04-27 23:23:00 | i have no idea at this point will get back to you, easiest option is save each photo onto disk and have option then to take to the store and print them each seperatly, then size not a prob, as i dont have any photo print paper. i just cant get any thing to edit how i think he wants it so, seperate pics is easiest. beetle |

| 232374 | 2004-04-27 23:43:00 | Hi Beetle. If you want to, you could email me the pics with a brief description of how you imagine the final image looking and I'll do it for you using Photoshop. I did a similar thing to what I believe you are wanting with some pictures I took at a fireworks display last year. I took some shots of the fireworks and, working in layers, I managed to create a "new" picture with a really nice shot of my partner and my daughter superimposed on five or six pics of exploding fireworks in a black sky. Everyone who sees it comments how nice it is. Anyhow, over to you. I will give you my contact details if you would like me to give it a try. Cheers. | karent (5222) | ||
