I have just joined LB and would love to create better images! - I love the ones that have a shot of the whole outfit and then focus in on a particular aspect in a corner shot for example! - Can anyone tell me how to do this in PIXLR or Photoshop? Any other cheeky tips so my shots look better would go down a storm too!

This is how I do it in Photoshop. I don't know how well you know PS so this might be a little patronising. Sorry, I'm just writing as if you're a complete beginner.
Open a new image that is the size you want it. Also open the three images you want. They'll appear in tabs.
Click on Window> Arrange> Tile. Then you'll see all four images. Click on each photo at a time and drag it into the new image. Then close the three windows you don't need to return to full size, or Window> Arrange> Consolidate all to tabs, if you don't want to close them.
To resize select the layer you want (either by right clicking and selecting the layer or clicking on it in the layers palette), go to Edit> Transform> Scale. Holding shift at the same time as dragging the image to size will keep it in proportion.
When you have all the three images in the right position (by dragging after selecting the button with the cross and arrow at the top of the side toolbar) and the right size, go to Layer> Flatten image. This will turn the four seperate layers into one so you can edit them all together if you like. Then save as a jpeg.
Hope that helps!

Photoscape. Easy to use. Just choose "combine' (if I'm not wrong, I kinda forget haha) from the menu, or choose "page"
