Combine Photos Horizontally

Combine Photos Horizontally

1. Open TurboCollage and select Grid pattern.

2. Since we're combining photos horizontally, we need a wide output size. We've used an 18 inches wide and 6 inches high size in this demo. Learn more about output sizes.

3. As we plan to join photos horizontally, set the number of rows to 1 and the number of columns to the number of pictures. For this example, we'll combine four images — you can combine any number of images.

4. Fill photos in cells. To select a picture for a cell, click the picture picker and choose an image. You can also add pictures in one go by clicking the "+" button on the Pictures tab. Learn more about adding pictures to your collage.

5. (Optional) By default, pictures are placed to fill up the whole cell. You can fit the images inside their corresponding cells, as shown in the screenshot below:

6. Export the combined image as a jpg, png, or tiff image file.
