Default Collage Poster

Hi, I've had a request to do a collage poster. Has anyone done one before? I see that Costco offers this product. What size did you use and how many pcitures?
The reason I ask is I'm considering making my own template. But in the back of my mind I hear myself saying, "Just keep it simple Kris! Plug in the photos and be done with it!" LOL

I used Cassie's blending tutorial, How’d They Do That? No. 12: The Perfect Blend - Digital Scrapbooking, to create an 11"x14" poster that I ordered from Shutterfly. I used two photos.

There are so many options for collages...e.g. like the templates that have a whole page of photos to the other end of one or two photos and go in the Art Play direction. I think it depends on the specific of what is being asked for (if anything) and what you like to do.

I have done them both ways. The only thing about just uploading the pictures is that it places the pictures for you. You don't have control over which picture or pictures is the larger pictures.
So sometimes I just use Elements, decide, what size I want printed and do the college myself using templates or whatever.
