The first step to creating your collage is selecting a template with a layout that you like. The family collage poster category contains collages for all kinds of themes, with a diverse variety of layouts. Once you've picked a template, you'll need to add photos.
Adding photos
Click the 'My Uploads' button on the left menu column. Click 'Upload media' from the expanded menu to add photos from your device. If you’ve added photos in the past, they will be available for use in the My Photos section.
You can drag and move the added photos. Use the square blocks on each side of the photo to adjust the size.
Removing photos
To remove photos, simply click a photo to select it, then under the Edit Image options, select Delete Image.
Adding photos from Facebook
You can also add photos directly from your Facebook albums. Click ‘My Uploads’ and then click the Facebook icon in the new menu. You’ll be asked to log in to your Facebook account.
Once you’ve logged in, you can view your photo albums. Click any album to show the complete list of photos. Click any number of photos you want to add. Once you’ve selected the photos, click the blue ‘Add Photos’ button and they will be added to your collage.
Move and position your photos
Select and drag your photos to move them around the design. Additionally, click the 'Position' tab in the right contextual menu to make use of a wide range of positioning options including:
- Move the photo in front or behind other design elements.
- Create a copy of the selected photo.
- Lock the photo in place.
- Delete the photo.
- Flip, stretch or align the photo with respect to your design canvas.
