p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Photoshop Collage Templates?


Can someone recommend a good place to find some Photoshop Collage templates? I have a membership to Photographic Elements that I like. But, specifically, I am looking for somewhere to shop templates by the number of photos in the collage. I know I have seen them somewhere, but can't find where it was. For example, all collage templates with 4 images are grouped together, while collages with 6 are grouped elsewhere.

Any help?

Photo Collage Toolkit

A video showing how easy a collage template can be populated http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/Populate911_720p.mp4

Photoshop scripting is powerful and I believe this package demonstrates this.

The package includes four simple rules to follow when making Photo Collage Template PSD files so they will be compatible with my Photoshop scripts.

1. Size the photo collage templates for the print size you want - width, height and print DPI resolution.
2. Photo collage templates must have a Photoshop background layer. The contents of this layer can be anything.
3. Photo collage templates must have alpha channels named "Image 1", "Image 2", ... "Image n".
4. Photo collage templates layers above the background layers must provide transparent areas to let the images that will be placed below them show through.


There are twelve scripts in this package they provide the following functions:

1. TestCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to test a Photo Collage Template while you are making it with Photoshop.
2. CollageTemplateBuilder.jsx - Can build Templates compatible with this toolkit's scripts.
3. LayerToAlphaChan.jsx - Used to convert a Prototype Image Layer stack into a template document.
4 .InteractivePopulateCollage.jsx - Used to interactively populate Any Photo Collage template. Offers most user control inserting pictures and text.
5. ReplaceCollageImage.jsx - use to replace a populated collage image Smart Object layer with an other image correctly resized and positioned.
6. ChangeTextSize.jsx - This script can be used to change Image stamps text size when the size used by the populating did not work well.
7. PopulateCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to Automatically populate a Photo Collage template and leave the populated copy open in Photoshop.
8. BatchOneImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Collage templates that only have one image inserted. The Collage or Image may be stamped with text.
9. BatchMultiImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Any Photo Collage template with images in a source image folder. Easier to use than the interactive script. Saved collages can be tweaked.
10. BatchPicturePackage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Any Photo Collage template with an image in a source image folder
11. PasteImageRoll.jsx - Paste Images into a document to be print on roll paper.
12. PCTpreferences.jsx - Edit This File to Customize Collage Populating scripts default setting and add your own Layer styles.

The Past Image Roll script requires no template it can tile as many image as you want into a document with or without white space about the images Paste Image Roll Script and Picture Package Support http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/PasteImageRoll.html


Collage templates are a snap to make there is no real reason to buy any. Be creative and make your own. How is this one for example: http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/PngSoccerball.png

as a jprg it would not have a transparent background

Ok, so I've started playing around with tychpanel and have a question...

Is there a way to restrict the dimensions of the individual cells?

For example, let's say I want to make a 3 x 3 (9 total images) square tych where each of the images are also square. Can I use tychpanel for this?

This is why I was asking about possible templates. Not just for this example, but others as well. I really like tychpanel, but can't figure out how to set the dimensions of the individual images. The overall output size can be set, but can the cell sizes?

Sort of. I think you would need for the images to have a square format to begin with, then you would restrict the target width appropriately in the Options. At that point every new set of 3 images could be added using the Top button and you'd end up with 3 rows and 3 columns for a total of 9 images.

Look at the Paste Image Roll script in my Photo Collage Toolkit any size image can be virtually fitted to square Aspect ratio.

HERE IS THE SCRIPT http://www.mouseprints.net/old/dpr/PasteImageRoll.jsx

Through I wrote the script for printing lots of images on roll paper you can lie to the script for example set 100 dpi
set paper with 3" set tile size 1" x 1" select 9 large print size image files with any aspect ratio and you will wind up with a document 300px by 300px with 9 100px by 100px pixture 3 row 3 columns.
