Collage Maker

Several pictures, one file — arranged the way you want, on your own device.

Drop your pictures here or click to choose them · two or more · they go in the order you add them

    Nothing is uploaded — the collage is drawn by your own browser.

    🔒 Runs entirely in your browser — nothing you type is uploaded or stored on a server.

    Drop in several pictures and get one back. Arrange them as a grid, a single row or a single column, set the gap between them and the colour behind them, and download a PNG or a JPG. The order in the list is the order in the collage, and you can move any picture up or down without starting again.

    Also on Txtset: resize the pictures first · change what format they are in · play them one after another as an animation.

    Nothing is uploaded. Every picture is decoded and drawn by your own browser onto a canvas on your device. There is no account, no gallery, no watermark and no server holding copies of your photographs afterwards.

    Two details worth knowing. The cell shape comes from the average proportions of the pictures you added, so a set of portraits gives tall cells and a set of landscapes gives wide ones, instead of everything being crushed into squares. And photo rotation is honoured — a picture taken sideways on a phone carries an EXIF orientation tag, and that rotation is applied before anything is drawn.

    If a picture is the wrong shape for its cell, crop it first. If the finished collage is too large to send, compress it or resize it. To put several pictures into a document rather than one image, use Image to PDF.

    How to use

    1. Drop your pictures on the box, or click to choose them. Two or more, up to thirty.
    2. Put them in the order you want with the ↑ and ↓ buttons, and drop any you change your mind about with ×.
    3. Choose a grid, a row or a column. In grid mode, leave Columns on “auto” or set it yourself.
    4. Set the gap and the background colour, and decide whether pictures should be cropped to fill their cell or fitted inside it.
    5. Download the PNG, or the JPG if you need a smaller file.

    Examples

    A four-photo grid
    Four holiday photos in a 2 × 2 grid with a 12-pixel white gap — one image to send instead of four attachments.
    A before-and-after
    Two pictures in a single row with no gap makes a straight side-by-side comparison.
    A transparent background
    Choosing a transparent background gives a PNG you can drop onto a coloured slide without a white rectangle behind it.

    Frequently asked questions

    Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
    No. There is no server behind this page. Each picture is decoded by your browser, drawn onto a canvas on your device and saved back to your downloads folder. Disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
    What is the difference between cropping to fill and fitting inside?
    Filling scales each picture until it covers its whole cell and trims the overflow, so the grid has no gaps but you lose the edges. Fitting scales it until the whole picture is visible, which keeps everything but leaves background showing around pictures that are the wrong shape.
    How many pictures can I use?
    Thirty. Each one is held decoded in memory while the collage is drawn, so a much larger batch risks the tab running out of memory part way through.
    Why is there a size limit on the output?
    A browser canvas cannot hold an unlimited image. The budget here is about 16.7 megapixels, the same one the other image tools on this site use, and the page tells you when your settings would go over it rather than producing a blank result.
    Will my photos come out sideways?
    No. A phone stores the rotation as an EXIF tag rather than rotating the pixels, and that tag is read and applied before the picture is drawn. This is a common failure elsewhere, which is why it is called out here.
    Does it keep the photo metadata?
    No, and that is deliberate. Drawing the pictures onto a new canvas strips EXIF entirely, including the GPS coordinates your phone records. The collage you share carries no location data from any of its pictures.
    Why can I not download a JPG with a transparent background?
    Because JPEG has no transparency at all. Rather than silently flattening it — which would give you a black background, not a white one — the page refuses and tells you to pick a background colour or take the PNG.
    Can I move pictures around freely?
    No. This lays out a grid, a row or a column tidily; it is not a freeform canvas. That keeps it quick to use for the thing most people want, which is several photos in one file.
