I don't know about you, but sometimes I like adding a little extra to my instructables. I like to do this by creating a sort of collage of the step by step photos to make it a little more organized and easier to read. 

My tool of choice is Pixlr Express. And lucky for me, and you, it's free and super simple!

There are virtually no materials needed to use Pixlr express other than:

- An Internet connection
- Pictures
- Creativity!

The program can be found by following this link (www.pixlr.com)

You'll see that there are 3 different versions of Pixlr, which you are welcome to explore as well. Pixlr editor is the advanced version and is similar to Photoshop. On the other hand, Pixlr-o-matic is the playful version, which helps you edit your photos using different filters and borders. I chose to use Pixlr Express, specifically the collage tab.

Okay, this is crazy! I didn't know you could do that with Pixlr! I usually just use it to resize my images :)
