Create custom collage or use the available presets
The custom collage maker is the feature that makes the whole thing possible. Users can create any shape by utilizing the brush and then save it as a preset. If it’s hard to draw a shape with the brush tool, users can simply draw it on a paper with a pencil, scan and save it as a PNG image file format, and then import the image from the application. Alternatively, users can always make use of the available presets that are bundled with the program or, if none is good enough or want to get more, browse through and download collage shapes from the developer’s website.
Define how the collage should look like
There is a preview feature to help users check if the shape of the collage has met their demands. Things that you can control over the collage include the size, number of photos included to create the shape, photo spacing, randomness level and shadow.
Additionally, the collage background can also be customized. Users can pick a solid color, transparent or a picture for the background. Customizable border can be added as well. The appearance customization preview helps you to achieve the best look.
Text Collage
If you’re interested in generating a text collage, the text collage maker feature enables you to select font type, size, style as well as define the text spacing and whether the text should be converted to a vertical or horizontal text collage. You can also insert symbols.
Add photos from computer or web
Photos that will be used to create the collage can be added from web and your computer. If you want to use photos from web, click “Add Photos from Web” from the file menu. This will display a mini window. Enter the urls of the photos or urls of the webpages that contain photos one per line into the box. Hit the “Add” button when you’re done.
Shape Collage free version has all of the features mentioned above. A small watermark is added to the output but it won’t disturb the beauty look. Another difference with the pro version is the capability of saving the created picture collage as PSD so users can edit it with Adobe Photoshop or GIMP. The free one lets you save the output as PNG or JPEG image only.
Shape Collage works with Windows 7, Vista, XP, Mac OS X, and Linux. Note that you must install Java to be able to run the program. Shape Collage can be downloaded from the developer’s website.
