Fristly you need to decide on a theme - family, cars, animals etc..

Then find a few pictures that you like and have a similar colour scheme.

Search the internet / Esato for a guide, there are plenty...

You need a half decent edit tool GIMP is a good for a free tool.

Start to cut / resize / add effects to your photos and save them to a dedicated folder giving it a good name e.g. Desktop 176 220.png

Once you have your files then you can start adding them to the theme creator and adjusting the text colours etc.. until it looks sweet.

I'm no expert and I created one of my little girl and for the best part it's excellent.
