My Thoughts

I use Mac OS X 10.10.2 and have been fortunate to use this great photo software. So, if you have OS X 10.6 or later, you're good to go. Here's a screen shot of all the various templates you can use.

As you can see, the above photo collage of 9 children at Easter, was made from the Grid template. It was super easy to use with adjustable margins for the perfect group display setting. I like it because it's very eye-catching. Another creative collage maker is Free Mode, as seen below. I just used one photo of Greece multiple times but you can use many of your travel photos here. This is great for travel bloggers.

With only three steps, you’ll create photo collage automatically; easy enough for users of all experienced levels.

Five collage styles for making photo collage - Mosaic, Grid, Center, Pile and Free Mode.

Various collage layouts can be generated continuously.

Intelligently fit photos to collage with face recognition when generating layout.

Real-time preview with a super high speed.

Large photo capacity supports adding up to 200 photos.

As a teacher, this is a fun mode to use, called Mosaic. There are many photos you can upload and fit together with background color choice for your bulletin board recital program cover, etc. Overall, Collageit 3 Pro is an excellent resource for making beautiful photo collages to enjoy and share as a jpg. and/or pdf file with easy export to FaceBook and iPhoto. I'm very pleased with the program and recommend to friends. 5/5 stars. Get it. You won't be disappointed!

All the best,

I made this photo collage with CollageIt for Mac... easy to do!

Kathy from Pearl Mountain Software contacted me about hosting a giveaway to a fantastic tool called, CollageIt for Mac 1.40 which is easy to use, an automatic photo collage maker for Mac OS X. It allows treasured photographs to become an inspiring photo collage in less than one minute. It automatically creates works of art making it suitable for people of all level skills. I really enjoy using the software. I'm very grateful to the company for finding me. Now, I want to share it with you!

Here's a list of the features:

1. Generate collage in an automatic way

Click “Generate Preview” button, CollageIt for Mac will create photo collage automatically according to the added photos and parameters without any manual adjustment.

Easy enough for users of all experienced levels to use. Pretty collage will be made by just a few mouse clicks.

3. Just 3 steps required

Just 3 steps to make a collage: add photos-> set parameters and generate preview->save collage as image file.

4. Provide enhanced features and functionality to create diverse types of collage

I love using CollageIt and the timing is right with the holidays arriving with family and friends. I especially like adding colorful borders around my collage. The company offers a wonderful variety of designs to choose from for any occasion.

The other feature that I use often is the amount of pictures to use. With scenery, sometimes I'll choose just 4 photos. I simply drag the photo onto the marked box and take a look at it. If I've changed my mind with the location, it's easy to slide the photo into another box for a totally different perspective.

The added bonus is that you are in control of what you want your collage to look like. That means, adjusting the width of the margins, inner and outside. The total finished product is always a delight because you create it yourself!

Best wishes to all the winners. Good luck everyone.
