  Hi. Yes, this is created with another program, such as PhotoShop, Sumo, GIMP, etc. No WordPress anything :-)

  thanks so much!

  All that is is a new image started with a white background and then they inserted the other various images into that image (probably on separate layers).

  Some have easy options to size and compress a batch of photos very quickly. Packages such as Photoshop / Paint Shop Pro will do it, but there is no need to spend money on doing this. These are free:

  Irfanview
  Picasa
  GIMP
  Photofiltre
  FastStone
