    Default Creating a grid mat for photos.

    I was wondering if anyone would like to share their ideas for creating a grid-like frame for photos of unequal sizes when you want to put several on a page. These grids are often supplied as templates but sometimes you want to find a quick and easy way to create your own. I thought of two possibilities but would like to know if anyone has any other ideas. One is to create the grid that Linda taught us but make the lines thicker and then once all the photos are in place, erase the lines you don't want. The other possibility is to position all your photos together and then add equal white lines (using the shape tool) over the top.
    This is my attempt.

    Cheers,
    Susie.

    Hi Susie ...

    In the past I have put all my images together on the page then created the grid lines around them (and erased any excess photo).

    I found that worked well
