Photoshop: “Combine Photos and Text 2”

Here’s another sample for “Combining Photos and Text”.

Of course I have to do one of my favorite subject “Pope John Paul II”

Step  1:  Open an image or a photo in Photoshop /Duplicate the layer.

Step  2:  Hit “T” on the menu for Text / Type the text (In this illustration, I did 2 text layers)

Step 3:  Move the text to your desired position on the image or photo/ Apply a warp text if desired (I used a “curve lower warp” on the first text and “bulge warp” on the second).

  1. I do trust all of the ideas you have offered to your post. They’re very convincing and can certainly work. Nonetheless, the posts are very short for starters. May you please extend them a bit from next time? Thanks for the post. kizec89hzd

  2. The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

  3. I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

  4. Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

  5. Awesome site you have here but I was wanting to know if you knew of any community forums that cover the same topics discussed in this article? I’d really love to be a part of community where I can get suggestions from other experienced people that share the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Appreciate it!

  6. The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

  7. Hiya very nice website!! Guy .. Excellent .. Wonderful .. I’ll bookmark your blog and take the feeds additionallyKI’m happy to find numerous useful info here in the put up, we want develop extra strategies on this regard, thank you for sharing. . . . . .

  8. Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

  9. Good day very cool web site!! Man .. Beautiful .. Superb .. I will bookmark your blog and take the feeds additionallyKI am satisfied to find numerous useful info here in the publish, we want develop extra techniques in this regard, thanks for sharing. . . . . .
