Please help me to multiply images in Photoshop.
I have created a small image (size 40mm x 30mm) and now I'd like to find way to multiply that image on the paper size 4x6 inches so that I can get 10 of those (same) small images on that paper size.

Hope here must be some experts in PS.

Thx in advance.

Yes I did and it works.
But I need to find some way how to do it just "one click".
I need to create about 500 different pics 4x6" . Each pic needs to be a set of same small images.
So if I would be using copy ==>paste can you imagine how many clicks I'd need to do.
There is an option in Photoshop File==>Automate==>Picture Package but there is no option for size of page 4x6".

Any idea now?

When you go to file>automate>picture package, there is this button in the bottom right of the popup, it sais 'edit layout', which allows you to make your own sizes.

and in the same menu wheres automate picture package, whare you can make a sort of contact sheet II, witch has a similar function:
all you have to do is make a folder with 500 copies of the same picture: he'll use that folder to make his picture package.

If that doesnt do it for you, just use word to make lables, but with your pictures instead :P

Thanks for answering to all of you.
Avalanche had a really good suggestion
[i]"When you go to file>automate>picture package, there is this button in the bottom right of the popup, it sais 'edit layout', which allows you to make your own sizes."
Unfortunately I can not find the button in the bottom right - edit layout.
My version of Photoshop is 7.0.
Is there any other way. I'd really appreciate it.

You can can define the small image as a pattern, then make a new document to the size you want and make a white layer, and go to blending options, patern overlay, and adjust the size.(ps: to define an image as a pattern go to edit, then look near the middle for "Define Pattern". For me its between Define Brush Preset and Define Custome Shape).
