What do you use to make a collage?

I know everything and anything can be done in Photoshop, but I'm wondering if anyone uses a more specific software to make a simple collage of 2 or 3 (or 4) images, side by side.

I searched this section of the forum but didn't find anything particularly useful, especially for Macs.


Thanks!

    FotoFusion by Lumapix.

    I have the enhanced version. I like it a lot. The videos tutorials are very helpful and once you get the hang of a few things, you're off and running and it's quite simple, fun, fast and sometimes amazing.

    EDIT to add regarding Mac usage (pulled from FotoFusion site):
    We are listening closely to feedback from Mac users , and we regret that we have been unable to produce a Mac-exclusive version of the software due to the very significant development resources that would be required to produce the software.

    However, we are happy to report that users have tested and are running FotoFusion successfully on Intel Macs, using Boot Camp, Parallels, and VMWare and a Windows operating system.

    With these three new options, we are delighted that FotoFusion can now be used by a growing number of MAC users.




    Here are a few simple examples:

    How 'bout Picnik? It's free and available via Smugmug galleries. I have a friend that makes great collages with it all the time.

    Picasa. It's basic, but it does the job. They've just released a mac version of it, too.
