I mark on the back ie, 12" from the center, measure to the top and write it down. Same for the other two, like my 3 Redlins. Take a reading down from the center from the ceiling, level it and mark it. Mark my center line for the pictures. Find the drop and go from there.

Yes, it would be easier to put the 3 pictures on 3 different walls but I have time to waste. In reality the 3 Redlins are in storage and the damn $60 poster that cost a fortune to frame is hanging in their place.

Here's a Texass solution. Buy a bunch of that there double-sided self-stickin Velcro tape. First put the two halves together and cut two pieces (or multiples depending on the weight of the picture) about 3" or 4" long. Peel apart the two halves of each piece and replace them rotated 90° so they look like plus signs. Remove the paper backing from one side and stick one plus sign on each side of the picture back as level as you can eyeball it. Now peel the paper backing from the exposed half of each plus sign and then place and stick the entire picture to the wall. Now you can move it left or right, up or down, ± about an inch in any direction to get it where you want it to end up. If you think you need more adjustment, cut the tape longer and/or use wider tape in the first place.

Sounds complicated, but takes no more than 5 minutes to do. bada bing
