Open a new document, set your image size/canvas size to be pretty large (you can always increase the canvas size as needed). Hopefully your images are all at the same resolution, or when you add them to the document, they may change size, either larger or smaller depending on the relative resolutions (if you are bringing in low res images into a higher res document, they will shrink, and the reverse is also true).





Open each of your pictures that you'd like to bring into the main document. With each one, hit ctrl (command on a Mac) +A to Select All. You should see the ';marching ants'; around the border of the image. Now go to your tools palette, and up at the top is the Move tool, which looks sort of like a cross with an arrowhead next to it. Click on it, and then click and drag the photo onto the main document. This will place a copy of the photo in the main document, on its own layer. Repeat this with each photo you want to bring together in the main document. Once you have all the images in, go to File%26gt;Save and save it as a Photoshop (.psd) file. This keeps all the layers in the image.





To manipulate each photo, move it to a different position or whatever, click on its layer in layer palette and with the Selection tool, you can move it around within its layer. You will have to go to the layers palette each time to select a different layer, but because each image is on its own layer, you can easily position it.





If you need to make the canvas bigger, go to the Image menu and select Canvas%26gt;Canvas size. This will give you a dialog box that will allow you to enlarge the canvas.





When you have everything together the way you want, you can go to Layer%26gt;Merge layer or Merge down. Then go to File%26gt;Save As and save the image, probably as a jpeg if you are intending to post it to website or share it. Rename it appropriately (whatever works for you, there are no rules here), and hit Save. Now you will have a flattened file with all the photos put together as one image, but you will still have your original unflattened image so if you want to go back and make changes to each layer you can.

you will also probably need to make your canvas bigger by going to


Image%26gt;Canvas Size


Make the dimensions bigger.


Then, another way to import them would be to go to File%26gt;Place. Then you can navigate to where you saved the pictures and it will put them on separate layers.
Copy the photo and then paste it into one project each photo on a seperate layer
