Make professional collage out of your pictures
Jan 20th
Okay, I have hundreds of pictures to arrange into a collage. I’m too lazy to arrange so many of them into a collage. What do I do?
Solution:
I download this free software that automates the process of creating a collage from number of pictures. Leaves absolutely nothing for you to do and gives you a finished professional looking collage. It’s called shape collage. One great feature of Shape collage is that you can make the collage in a desired shape. The software also has an online version, that allows you to work directly on the cloud.
Some great features:
Create picture collages in less than a minute with just a few mouse clicks
Create collages in the shape of a Rectangle, heart, circle, letters, or even draw your own shape.
Adjust the collage size, size of the photos, number of photos, and spacing between photos
Change the background, the colour of the border, and more
Edit the final image in Photoshop by saving it in PSD format.
Make sure your computer has java runtime environment installed.

[Test Page] Best viewed with Firefox 3.5 A test page I created using some basic photoshop. The slices I cut from the psd are as below. [images]
- Screen shot of the PSD used to cut slices.
Curved DIV: There are many ways to create curved DIVs, but I preferred using a simpler method I found while surfing the internet. The curvature of the DIV tags is a simple code, can be found here:
IE as expected doesn’t support the code, so a downloadable file is included at the above URL. The download htc file isn’t completely bug free. DIV height problems are still noticeable. Plus using it with the jQuery with it gave me hundreds of problems. I preferred to keep my design sharp edged for IE people.
The CSS style sheet can be accessed here [StyleSheet]. It is a bit messed up so have patience.
jQuery: The jquery was copied from the tutorial. Made many changes to the CSS according to my design. It required variable height so, I used just the min-height property on the content DIV.
Known Bugs and Problems: Right now the fact that the page is static is disturbing. It has to be evolved into a php dynamic page. Loading of all the posts in a single page load will increase load times later. Also there will be problem monitoring post statistics separately (indexing, meta, visitors). Another problem I have to overcome is the embedding of a flash movie in the jQuery DIV. Please report any other bugs and suggestions to indigoanalysis@gmail.com
