App helps you create custom photo collages

Published 6:07 pm Monday, January 23, 2012

Available for: iPhone and iPad.

What it does: Helps you create a photo collage from your library photos, Facebook albums or pics from the Web (if you’re only pretending you took a trip to Africa).

You can impress your mother, brag to your co-workers, and make your vacation look even better than it really was, all before you pack your suitcase to return home.

Cost: Free.

What’s hot: It could be the fastest way you’ll ever find to organize a batch of photos. Create (and edit) a collage of photos and then export the collage to your friends. Also makes gorgeous emails and can turn your image into a real postcard (for about $2 in the U.S.).

Don’t miss the PicCollage blog to get layout ideas.

What’s not: Where’s the print button? I guess I have to email it to myself first.

Worth it: It’s free, so start playing with it now. Check it out at pic-collage.com.
