Here's another idea to break Fred's "all quiet."

About seven or eight years ago, when one of my grandchildren was in Pre-K, they were trying to give the kids a grasp of how big a number 100 is.  I put 100 family snapshots on a 13x19 sheet of photo paper.  Use 1.2x1.75 inches.  Fits perfectly.  The kids all loved it and since then I have done it quite a few times. Sometimes they just leave it on the sheet, last time they cut them up and used them to play their own version of some kind of Pokemon game (using photo of me as an evil guy called Darkrai I think)

QU makes this really easy. Just a thought if you are getting bored.

Dear Darth,
That was interesting and challenging.
What did you use to achieve the 100?
It was easy once the light bulb went on in my head.

Of course - as always - I see that your 100 are better than my 100 - but anyway - the first time i did this was before any of the intelli-space options were there, but I do remember that since the photos were from a one to two year span, I just created an album, went through the folders and added to the album until I had 100 in the album, then opened the album added all to the queue.  I think I had to adjust the crops on a few, but that was not a major issue.

Which brings me to mention another great Qimage feature that doesn't get mentioned a lot.  The other day I was thinking about the 100 postage stamp size photo sheet as something to give to my oldest grandchild for her bulletin board as she heads off for her freshman college year.  It's so great that you can recall any job that you have ever printed - ever printed!  And of course now you can even search for a job containing a specific photo, but in this case, all I had to do was open the automatic job log, and click the Number of Phts column to sort on that, and there they all were, from 2011, 2012, 2015, 2016 and 2018! Needless to say, I did not have any jobs with more than 100 prints

I did it the easy way. I placed 13 x 19 as my paper size, and then went to CUSTOM. In there I used NUMBER OF PRINTS PER PAGE, and put 10 for columns and 10 for rows. That was it. Crop scissor on, added 100 images.
