Is there an easy way to put one large photo into a template made for 3 or 4 photos?

i.e. Julie Kelley's Template Challenge has 4 photo holes. I deleted the individual photo holes and put my large photo in and then put in the white lines. By no means was this labour intensive LOL but I thought there maybe a simpler way of putting a single photo into many holes. Not all templates with multi photo holes are as easy to convert as this one was.

Thanks for any input.

I would lock the 4 pieces together and then drag the photo on top, size it to cover and then clip it to the locked pieces.

Not sure if this works in all programs (I'm using Paint Shop Pro XI), but I open the template and the picture I want to use, copy the picture, then select each template opening with the magic wand while holding down the shift key. After selecting all openings, right click and choose "paste into selection". Ta Da! :wiggle: There it is, looking like I did each section separately! Hope this helps.
