creating photo panel

[macspl]

Can anyone help me with instructions to create a photo panel with Elemnets?  I'd like to create a panel with 4 or even 6 photos.....2 across x 2 down or possibly 2 across by 3 down.

Have look at my three video demos:

Using the built-in collage templates

Thanks.Now, I am using Elements 14. Would like to upgrade to v. 2020, but now running Win7.With v. 14, when I make collage, how do I make background white?Also, how do I save as jpeg ? I seems to only give me pse option.

Just use the Editor menu:

File >> Save As

Then choose jpeg.

Or if you have the PSE project saved in Organizer you can select the thumbnail and click:

File >> Export as New File

You then get some file choices, size and folder location for the saved copy.

hi...sorry, I must be doing something incorrectly.

I saved the pse file to my hard drive. Then, opened it, using 'open recently edited file'. Tried to then 'export' as you suggested, but the 'export' option under the 'file' tab is grey. Nothing happens when I click it. [This is Elements 14].

Is there a video available demonstrating making, editing photo panels with Elements 14. I'm still unable to modify the background to all white....I don't see this option when opening 'graphics'.

Thanks!

Can you open the PSE project file in he Editor? Then go into the advanced mode. You should see the layers including the color for the background layer.
