Designing a good collage
Pick photos with similar colours and lighting for a calm look, and put the best photo in the largest frame. Even out brightness first in the Online Photo Editor, and add a title afterwards with Add Text to Image.
- Use a white or black background for a classic look.
- Small gaps look modern; no gaps look like one big picture.
- Choose the size that matches where you will post it.

Frequently asked questions
How many photos can I put in a collage?
Between two and nine. Layouts change automatically to suit the number of photos you add.
Will my photos be stretched?
No. Each photo is cropped from the centre to fill its frame, so nothing is squashed. Choose a layout whose frames match the shape of your photos to keep more of each picture.
Can I change the order of photos?
Photos are placed in the order you add them. Press Shuffle photos to try a different arrangement, or Start again and add the most important photo first for feature layouts.
What size should I choose for Instagram?
Square works for the feed, while the Instagram portrait size takes up more screen space. Use the story size for vertical stories and reels covers.
Can I make a collage with no gaps?
Yes. Set the spacing to zero for a seamless grid, and corner rounding to zero for straight edges.
Should I download JPG or PNG?
JPG gives a smaller file for sharing photos. PNG keeps every detail and is better if you will edit the collage further.
Can I print the collage?
Yes. Choose the A4 print size for the sharpest print, and make sure your original photos are reasonably large.
Are my photos uploaded to make the collage?
No. The collage is put together inside your browser, so all of your photos stay on your own device.
How this tool works. These image tools run entirely in your browser using the Canvas API built into every modern browser, the open-source libheif decoder for iPhone HEIC photos and Tesseract, a widely used open-source OCR engine, for reading text. Each tool is tested with real phone photos, screenshots and scans before it goes live, and nothing you open is sent to a server.
