are you familiar with powerpoint?
or you could go the lumapix route that is discussed here... March Signature Picture Theme

Whattup!? | upload it to the BDW photobucket account, then click on it and 'resize' - chose the forum size option, then copy the IMG code and paste into your signature

Photo Editing Software - LumaPix :: FotoFusion
I suggest downloading the free trial of lumapix. Design your collage & then convert it to a jpg file. It will be watermarked with a lumapix sign, but that really doesn't matter for a siggy pic. The watermark is there if you do not purchase the program.
You can adjust the resolution when you are converting it to a jpg file. If you make it low resolution your watermark will be smaller. Low resolution looks fine on a computer screen.
If you love the program, buy the $40 essentials version. You can always upgrade later by paying the difference if you really get hooked. I use it all the time, but I haven't upgraded past the cheapest version. It really can do a lot.
