my blog collages

Thursday, March 26, 2009

i have been getting a lot of emails and questions about how i create my collages here for my blog.

i used to create them myself in photoshop, using lots of tricky things like multiplication and division and stuff.

but then i got lucky.

someone named jodie asked to advertise here, and linked me to her site. i went to check it out, and realized that she sells ACTIONS that CREATE the collages FOR YOU.

her website is here: MCP Actions

i tried them out and seriously love them. all of the collages in the post below (part of five at the santa monica pier) were created using her magic blog it actions.

i cant believe i didnt think of trying to find something like this before…

so there you go, thats what i do.

Angela - You can also make simple collages with the mosaic maker at bighugelabs.com. http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/mosaic.php But the photos you want to use have to already be hosted somewhere on the web - you can't just upload them from your computer. I use Flickr though, so that's fine for me. Thanks for sharing!

Kendra - great images, tara! I also like mcp's "touch of light/touch of dark" action...which is free on their blog :) kendra

rebecca - I love these too! I just got them last week and they make life soooo much easier! I was wondering if you used them. Thanks for sharing! :)

jenny d - awwww yeah... i use 'em too and they really do save so much time! good stuff.

tara k - hey tara...thanks for the push, i've been wanting to get these! are the collages you are showing in this post using set one or two or both?

Tara Whitney - tara k - i have set one.

Megan - Tara you are FANTASTIC for sharing this link! I have been looking for something like this for ages--this will be perfect, can't wait to try them all out!

carolyn bowles - Oh Tara, I am so excited!!! I have been making collages using math (which I'm not very good at) as there is division all over my notebook. This will make life so much easier!!! Thanks for sharing. You rock!

Katrina - Thanks for sharing T. These look fun. I tried the freebie, and I like it!

Summer - These are great! I have both sets & love them! My question is how did you turn off the black lines? Just turned off the bottom layer? I love your work & these images from the beach are GREAT! Thanks

Farmer Gal - Those are really neat. The photography horizons are never-ending, aren't they? I love the MCP Actions site too... Never get to spend enough time learning all she has to offer over there though!

Kelly - THANK YOU for sharing! I have been looking for just such an action set. Purchased all three BlogIt & PrintIt board sets!
