Hi Karen, do you mind if I ask you a question? Where can I get the free software for stirching the pictures like yours? My last posting was horrible. What a mess! Need some arrangement! Thanks.

Hi My Little Space, no problems at all. I currently use Adobe Photoshop Elements to import all my photos into one file with the pink background, to keep them uniformed for my blog. I bought the program however you can download a free trial version here: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/ The trial's last 30 days from the day you download it. And there are a few different ones there to keep you going for a while :). Apart from that there is also this free software which friend has mentioned it before however I haven't used it so I'm not sure what it is like: http://www.photoscape.org/ps/main/index.php I hope this helps!
