Making text out of a picture?


Question Posted Monday June 22 2009, 3:26 pm

I want to take a picture, put transparent text onto it, and then sort of cut around the text so that you have the picture as the background of the text. I can't really explain it.
I don't have photoshop or anything fancy like that. How would I do this? Here are some examples. Thanks in advance!

You can do this in Microsoft Word!

The photograph below should explain:

Use Wordart and choose the first design with the black border and white inside. Fill the inside with a picture. You can change fonts and take away the border if you wish.

I suggest you get photoshop because that's the only way to do it. With photoshop, you'd just select the text and then paste the picture.
