Discussion
There are a lot of great photo collage makers that you can use online but what if you don’t have instant access to internet and you’re caught up doing some tasks in which you need to combine multiple photos into creative collages? At such cases, having a free photo collage creator on your computer would definitely come in handy. Besides, if you have TweakNow PerfectFrame, you can choose among its wide variety of collage layouts.
With TweakNow PerfectFrame, you can create all sorts of photo collages. This tool will also allow you to combine up to ten photos in just one collage. What I like about this tool is that it is super easy to use. Just open the application and then select the layout that you like. After which, you’re free to add your photos to each frame. You can even adjust the zoom and orientation of each photo so that all of them would properly fit in the frames.
In addition, you can also adjust the style and size of your collage. Just click on its “General” tab and then select the appropriate settings for each section. You are free to select your preferred image size, aspect ratio, background color, background pattern, background image, photo margins, spacing, rounded corners, etc. You can even add your own captions.
Another thing that I like about this tool is that it lets you save your photo collages into different formats. You can save your collage as BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG or TIFF. You can even save it as .pfj, a format that you can edit and save for later. On the other hand, the tool’s UI may not be the best-looking one that I’ve seen but it’s downright simple. It’s also resizable and non-obtrusive.
All in all, I can say that TweakNow PerfectFrame is a decent photo collage maker. It offers a lot of layouts plus you’re free to customize your collage’s appearance and format. Even so, there are still some options that this tool lacks such as the ability to flip photos as well as to change the border style, color and size.
