Logo Photo Collage

Turn a logo into a collage of photos: your company's logo made from photos of your team and customers, a school crest from a year of school photos, or a team logo from a season of games. Shape Collage fills any logo shape with your pictures automatically.

How to make a logo collage

1. Make a black-and-white version of the logo. Open the logo in any image editor (Paint, Photoshop, GIMP, Preview), make the logo solid black on a white background, and save it as a PNG. Black is where the photos go.
2. Download Shape Collage (free for Windows, Mac and Linux) and open it.
3. Drag your photos into the photo box. Logos with fine detail need lots of photos: 200 or more.
4. On the Shape and Size tab, click Custom Shape and load your PNG.
5. Make the collage large, for example 6000 pixels wide, so small parts of the logo still show the photos.
6. Click Create, then save it as a JPEG or PNG. With a transparent background it can go straight onto a banner or slide.

Tips

• Bold and simple works best. Thick shapes show the photos; thin lines and small text don't. Leave out the tagline and fine print, or make them bolder.
• Add the details back afterwards. Put the logo's text or outline over the finished collage in an image editor, or use Shape Collage Pro's Photoshop export.
• Use more, smaller photos for detailed logos; use fewer, bigger photos for a simple mark.
• Using someone else's logo? For anything commercial, get permission from the company that owns it.

Ideas

• Company anniversaries and all-hands meetings: the logo made from photos of employees through the years.
• Trade show banners and office walls: the logo made from customers and products.
• Schools and teams: the crest or mascot made from a year of photos, for a yearbook, a banquet or a fundraiser.
• Clubs and events: a poster made from members' photos.
• Social media: a profile picture or cover image made from your community's photos.
