well. How can I move and re- move pictures as single items
well. How can I move and re- move pictures as single items

One possibility - if the images are separate objects - is that they have been
Grouped. Select the image, then click the Draw button (Drawing Toolbar) & if
Ungroup an available command, select it.
It is also possible that the collage was created in a different program &
inserted into the Word doc as a single object, in which case there is nothing
you can do in Word. The image will have to be edited in a graphics app & the
new version inserted in place of the old one.

No, they are not grouped, all separate pictures which I want to move and
arrange. I am the one creating the collage in word so no other program is
involved. I found out that I can move them separately by text wrapping them
in front of text - the background text box I take it? I cannot insert them
into the text box directly without a whole lot of other movement. Lock them?
Add text box background lst?

Hi =?Utf-8?B?amF5?=,
It's not possible to insert drawing objects INTO other drawing objects. They can
be layered (Draw/Order).
If an object "disappears" behind another one, you can click the white arrow in
the Drawing toolbar, draw a "box" around the object group, hold Ctrl while
clicking on the objects you DO NOT want, then Draw/Order to bring it to the
front so that you can move it. Or, you can press the arrow keys to move it.

Your questions aren't really clear, but...
