Collage Apps

I don’t know if it’s ever even occurred to me before, but this weekend I discovered two kind of fun Apps.  I’ve always been known for constantly taking pictures with my iPhone.  Now, that I’ve been walking around with the newly acquired Canon EOS Rebel T3i like a new appendage- it seems “Taking A Photo” could be my new middle name.  I’m blogging, tweeting, e-mailing, and updating Facebook with my newest capture at every turn.  It some how led me to wanting to be able to group several pictures together, and share them all as one image…you know…wait for it…like a COLLAGE!

So the first App is for the iPhone and it’s called Pic Collage.  It makes it easy to create pretty simple collages (right on your iPhone) and share them (right from your iPhone).  Here’s an example of a collage I made in a matter of minutes…and then I’m able to either save it to my camera roll or send it via email, text/iMessage, twitter, Facebook, etc., etc.  I know…the world is a better place now…isn’t it?!  Oh wait…get’s better – it’s FREE.

Ok, the second App is for Mac and it’s called CollageIt Free (yup…as in you can get it for FREE).  This one lets you make collages on your Mac computer.  I found it super easy to use, and when you’re done you can export your collage in several different formats like PDF or a JPG.  In a blog I was prepping about dinner at Patina Green I used a collage – instead of trying to jam every single picture I liked into the post.

So, in the even you found yourself in need of making a collage- I thought I’d share.

As a technology related side note- I’ve also started playing with Photoshop.  I’m sure there’s a way to make a collage there…but I’m sure it’s not this easy…nor cheap.
