Photoshop Help!

by defOK • 31 May 2007, 10:10 • Journals
Hoi, any1 can link me to a decent tutorial or wouldn't mind to explain me how I can add my "signature" , or better the first letters of my name & surname (dunno the english word for that!) to an existing picture?

Google kinda didn't help me.

THX!

Use the text tool, the one with a big T on it. Click on the picture, type whatever you want. Grab the move tool, the one with the arrow on it, and drag it to where you want it.

simply drag it with the text-tool. i think it works better because it doesn't clip to borders or other elements.
you have to move the mouse away from the text itself while you are editing it and voila there it is!

You can't drag with the text-tool in CS2 as far as I know. It just opens a new textfield. :<

once you click the text tool and typ text, u can still move it with the text tool (untill you change tool which then disables the movement)
(tried with cs3)

if you want to move your text-layer a little bit, choose the layer to "active" and then alt + arrow keys

its a very good app but some people find it over complicated for making vectors you could also try coral or freehand

you are 18!
If you are still going to school or are already at university, why don't you just buy the student version of ps cs3 or illustrator (or both) (around 150€ in Germany).
