One of the limits of Picasa is the inability to use GIF or PNG images with a transparent background, e.g., a cut‐out of the following turquoise bird. One way to achieve the "look" of a piece of scrap placed in a desirable location is described below. Using a graphics program such as IrfanView [ LINK ], create an exact mirror image of this free header image [ LINK ] by vertically /lipping the original image. Use the GRID collage feature in Picasa to create this image from the previous two mirrored images. This particular collage was done as an 8.5 x 11 image.
