Contact Sheets

For those into photography, you'll appreciate this and for those who aren't - you could do a really great decorative piece with all of your child's photos; just print and frame!

  • File -> Automate -> Contact Sheet II
  • De-Select Flatten All Layers
  • In the Contact Sheet II dialog box set the Width to 7 and the Height to 9
  • Choose the number ofimages you want on the page by changing the Columns and Rows field (the fewer amt of pics the larger they will be)
  • This will take a moment to work so sit back and relax :)
  • Once this is done, it's time to add your name and contact info
  • Image -> Canvas Size -> 8.5 x 11
  • Create a New Layer but make sure it is UNDER the layer with your photographs
  • Fill with white (Edit -> Fill -> White)
  • Center your images on the page
  • At the top, Type in your Name
  • At the bottom Type in your contact info and make sure you put your copy wright symbol down there
  • Print and mail it out to your clients!
Side Notes: Before beginning make sure you have all your images what you want to name them.
By de-selecting the Flatten Layers option, you now have the ability to edit text, add black boxes around the images to set them off, etc...
