You know I normally post QUALITY POSTS, right? This isn't.
Today I just have a question- I'm trying to make one of those pictures made up of lots of little pictures where they use diferent effects to make a pig picture with the little pictures. This is a rubbish explanation- I've tried googling "montage" to explain what I mean but with no good results.
Is there a programme of how to do this somewhere? A tutorial?
I need it for a project at work- I want it to be the front cover of a Yearbook.

haha- when are you coming?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
i don't know yet...i have a gazillon free miles on United and i'm getting nervous
they're going to fold or go bankrupt before i can use them all up
i'm getting too old for this shit, but my preference has always been total immersion
in the local 'street' scene...some call it slumming, i call it "feeling alive"...but
security concerns while traveling under a US passport, and during this administration,
are restricting and limiting my choice of destinations
i'm old and wise enough to know the difference between sharpening up your language,
meet and greet, and survival skills vs a plain ol suicide mission
sorry.....i'm rambling

I wonder if anybody thinks that montage is racist because the blacks and whites are seperated...

I know the effect you're looking for, and I'm sure there's an app out there somewhere that does it, but I'd just have to google the shit out of it and haunt the geek forums till I figured it out.

There's a really simple way of doing this which is effective, as long as you have lots of images on the front cover. I dunno how much you know of Photoshop, so I'll be thorough. Sorry if it seems patronising.
Basically, cut and paste all the pictures onto your document in Photoshop. Then create a new layer above it with whatever larger image you want the photos to make. Size it properly etc. THEN, all you do is: in the layer window, click once on the large image layer to select it, then on the scroll menu just above it, it'll say "normal". Click on it and select the "multiply" option.
This is kinda cheating, but if you have enough images, the effect is the same.

The magazine came in. That's awesome.
and we've been reading bits and pieces of it to each other trying to figure out what it means
I knew what a yert was, but I thought a bender was when you stay up all night playing craps and drinking yourself into a drunken stupor and then lay around all the next day with a vicious hangover hating life thus completely wasting an entire day of vacation.
I'm disturbed that I had never heard of that guy in Texas who is running for governor.
If I know "my people" someone with a campaign slogan "why the hell not" has a good shot of getting elected whether he actually has a platform or not.
thanks for sending that although it's a bit odd to see some random uberposting printed in a magazine like that
and oh so humiliating that they actually chose to correct my grammar

That's GOT to be Kinky Freidman you're referring to. over 60% of his campaign donations have been taken at Plent K, the local head shop chain. He owns the other stoner shop, the Gas Pipe.
I desperately want a governor named Kinky.

I've got Photoshop and all the pictures at work so I'll have a go on Monday- it's going to be tiny pictures of all the kids in the year group blended into a school badge. Ideally I will get a kid who is better at photoshop than me to do it!

photomontage is the software, made by microsoft.
its pretty simple and quite small, once you remove all the default galleries they supply.

Dunno but you could use photoshop to put one layer of all the photo's over the picture you want it to look like they form and make it opaque (?). It's probably cheating but it might work.
