Default How do I create layers/collage in picture manager?

Make sure you start a new Powerpoint file before doing this, or your pictures
will get stretched. Use the Page Setup menu to make the new page size 4" x
6". Copy the collage into this file, resize it so it fills up the whole
page, and print it on 8.5" x 11" photo paper. I don't know how your printer
works, but you probably will be fine telling your printer to print on letter
paper. (It's kind of a guess and test thing.) You will have to cut it to
size, so make sure you know where the edges of the collage are.

Thank you! I used picture manager to do the cropping and enhancements and
then copied them into powerpoint and was able to do exactly what I wanted to
do! However, now I am stumped ... I have created a collage and would like to
print this like a regular (4" x 6") photograph. I'm not sure (at all) how to
do this! Can anyone help?

You cannot do this in the Picture Manager. You can re-size your images in the Picture
Manager, save and insert them into another program such as Word and arrange them into
your 4 x 6 collage. www.irfanview.com will create thumbnails, it is a free
application. Get the plug-ins too.

I want to create a 4x6 picture that consists of a series of small cropped
picture in a collage or layering effect? Can I do this with MS Picture
Manager?
