Collages
Collages are a group of pictures on the same page. You can use
them as a family photo collection or a view of a place on your vacation
or just about anything else you want to present.
Collages are made by putting more than one photo on a "canvas" - the final image you want to present.
In all collages you must select more than one image.
Many programs handle the making of collages differently, but in Picasa 2.1,all
you really have to do is select a few pictures and put them in your
"Picture Tray" (you can keep them in the tray by hitting the "Hold"
button on each one) and then hit the "collage" button (on the bottom of
the screen). You are given four different choices - Picture Pile,
Multiple Exposure,Contact Sheet and Picture Grid. You can experiment with each of the setting to see what you can get.
A Collage might also be considered a Scrapbook page WITHOUT cutting up all the parts!
