hello all, i'm new here. just to ask something, hopefully others can help.

i always took my nephew photo every anniversary month. saved it to my folder and make it to the desktop as a background. for single photo, no problem, just right click the photo from your folder, and choose set as a background photo.

what i want to do is, paste few different photos. let say one month one photo, so let say total 10 or 12 photos in one page. how to do it? my pc have photoshop.

thanks in advance for any helps.

By using your photoshop:
1. Click "New" and set your 800x600 or 1024x768, etc depends on your desktop setting.
2. copy and paste images you desire, drag and drop them where ever you like.
3. save file as .png, gif or jpeg.
4. right click on your desktop and change your wallpaper.

You can make a few to change each month, manually. icon_rolleyes.gif

Here:
1. Click "New" and set your 800x600 or 1024x768, etc depends on your desktop setting.
2. copy and paste images you desire, drag and drop them where ever you like. (Open the image you want to drag from, ctrl + A, Ctrl + C then Ctrl +V at no.1), repeat to other images you want to copy, till u think you're satisfied)
3. save file as .png, gif or jpeg.
4. right click on your desktop and change your wallpaper.

Femi,

thanks alot but sadly, still failed to do it. i can't copy & paste the pics that i opened. don't know what when wrong. either your instruction too brief or maybe my knowledge too little.

here is what i done:
1. click new - set to 1024x768
2. click open - go to the folder that i saved the pics.

on the pics, i can crop but can't find the feature for 'copy' or 'paste'.
use 'ctrl A, C or V' also can't.

Try This:
Step 1: File ~> New Image (1024x768)
Step 2: File ~> Place... ~> *Select The Desire Picture* (You can resize if you want)
Step 3: You can repeat step 1 & 2 if you want to put other pictures smile.gif
Step 4: Save As JPEG
