<div dir="ltr">OpenOffice is a little limited for what I want. Collages are very easy to create with Picasa 3.0 beta (installed using wine, as Google has not yet come up with Linux version - wine integrated for 3.0 beta).<br>

I think you can do things like this in OpenOffice Draw. I'd given a<br>
customer of mine OpenOffice and when they brought their computer back<br>
for some repair again in the future, I'd seen her daughter had done<br>
some really nice picture collages for school with Draw. Take a look at<br>
that and see if it can do what you're looking for.<br>
