Preset customization — not a free-form layout designer

Pix-8 Image Collage Maker supports a custom photo collage layout within five built-in structures — not a drag-and-drop page builder or arbitrary grid editor. Pick vertical strip, horizontal row, two-column grid, 2×2, or 3×3, then customize gap spacing and background with live preview on a client-side canvas. It does not offer custom row and column counts, overlapping cells, per-photo resize handles, or a library of branded collage templates.

Why customize collage layout on-device?

Layout tools that upload your gallery before you can tune spacing slow iteration. Pix-8 keeps adjustments on a local canvas — the practical fit when you need a custom photo collage layout with control over preset structure, gap spacing, and background before exporting one combined image.

Five structures to start from

Vertical strip, horizontal row, two-column grid, 2×2, and 3×3 — switch presets and see your layout update on a client-side canvas instantly.

Gap and background tuning

Set spacing between cells and canvas background color with live preview — refine the look within each preset before export.

Private on-device layout

Customization runs in your browser on a local canvas. Pix-8 never receives your photos on a server.

Frequently asked questions

What can I customize in this photo collage layout?

Choose from five built-in structures — vertical strip, horizontal strip, two-column grid, 2×2, and 3×3 — then adjust gap spacing between cells and canvas background color with live preview on a client-side canvas. Photos fill cells in upload order. You can switch presets and refine spacing and background before export. It does not include drag-and-drop cell placement, per-cell crop handles, individual photo scaling, or overlapping layered layouts.

Can I build a fully custom grid with any number of rows and columns?

No. Layout structure is limited to the five built-in presets — you customize appearance within those structures, not arbitrary grid dimensions. You cannot set custom row and column counts, rotate cells, or design free-form collage templates beyond gap, background, and preset selection. The tool does not offer a template marketplace or AI-generated custom layouts.

Does customizing a collage layout require uploading photos to a server?

No. Pix-8 Image Collage Maker runs entirely in your browser. Your photos are read locally, laid out on a client-side canvas, and exported from your device. Gap, background, and live preview adjustments all run on-device — your images are never transmitted to Pix-8 or any third-party server.
