Quick Multiple Pictures Collage Maker

You must have got an idea by the title of this post, Well you know that the tool which I will be reviewing today will be used to create collage of the selected image files. Now for me this tool was very useful as i liked the way it created the collage of the images that were imported by this tool. The name of this tool is Collage It and I will be telling you more about it.

Many a times we are required to create collage some times it is an occasion and sometimes as a gift. Now this tool will help to create by importing all the image files that are available on your system. In my case it detected all the image files, so I would not be able to tell you the particular formats which it can detect. But yes in my case I had some of the BMP and JPEG files. So atleast this tool will not fail for these two format.

As you can see in the snapshot that all the images which are selected by you will be collected on the right column of the application window. Once you select all the images, just click the Generate Preview button and then you will see the preview in the full screen mode and you will also be able to see that in the center of that application window.

If you want to change any setting related to collage then all the setting options are available on the left side of the application window. If you want to change the background color and its color flow then you can select the change background option, if you want to change the number of images present on a single collage then it is the very first option in the settings column. If you have increased the number to 30 or 40 and the number of files which were selected by your are 10 then the files will be divided in to different pieces and then the collage will be prepared. No repetition will take place.

The size of this tool is around 5 Mb and it will take no time to get installed. This freeware is not portable but it is expected that it is compatible with all the versions of Windows as it has been checked with Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate edition.

Finance and marketing and they have their respective sub-departments with same name (lets say tax).

So in order to differentiate between the files of finance and marketing we have to name their sub-department files with prefixes.

You can also change extension of the file if you want to.

In Advanced options, you have the option of removing spaces, brackets, tides or hyphens from the name of file. You can also remove a specific string or replace the one with yours.
