any help in how to do this? I did a search but came up empty. We have about 5 pictures for the clues.

<<We've been able to put 6 images on 1 photo with the photo editor>>

Where is the photo editor?

I haven't seen one here at AQ, but I have done something similar using my home editing software for scrapbooking purposes. With my program you download the pictures then copmose a new project. You can do all kinds of cool things with photo edit software....add text, change color, etc.

Pretty computer illiterate unfortunately... I don't think we have it :(

I'll need to find some other way of doing this.

I ran into the same problem. My solution was to forget about hosting that clue on AQ and instead host it on my own web site with a link from AQ. That way I could put the clues and pictures together any way I pleased:

It does seem kinda odd that you can post one pic per clue on AQ but no more. It's almost like we just can't figure out how to do it.

If you would like to do this and have it all hosted on AQ, I could put them together for you into one file. Just write my AQ email address and I'll give you my personal email so that you can send the images over the Internet. I can have the pictures put together for you in a jiffy (or should that be GIFfy?) with PhotoShop.

I did this using the album feature on AQ, but it was an all picture clue, no text.

But the merging them into one picture is an idea that hadn't occured to me.... hmmm.

That works when there's no text. Could you have skipped the stop at the clue listing by simply entering the URL for the album as the primary hosting location for the clue?

For my Bloodroot letterbox, I used multiple pictures as well as text; it is hosted on a page on my own website and linked to AQ. http://www.nrcengineering.com/bloodroot.htm
