In this exer­cise we will cre­ate a 15 cm * 15 cm sized image and we will use a part of the image as an effect in some text.

In this tuto­r­ial you will learn how to:

  1. Change the image size with the Crop tool
  2. Change the Doc­u­ment size in the Can­vas size window
  3. Unlock the back­ground layer
  4. Open the Styles palette
  5. Open the Pho­to­graphic Effects style gallery
  6. Use the style Sepia Tone
  7. Use the Eye­drop­per tool
  8. Use the Gra­di­ent tool
  9. Hor­i­zon­tal Type Mask
  10. Char­ac­ter palette
  11. Cre­ate text with an image inside
  12. Outer Glow layer style

Wel­come back! Nice to see you again, hope you enjoy your visit.

    I’m sorry about the error mes­sage. Some of the mes­sages are hold for mod­er­at­ing. I guess it’s my spam fil­ter act­ing up.

    Good to hear that you’re recov­er­ing. I know how hard it is to keep off the com­puter when you should but don’t want to. :oops:

    The photo isn’t mine, but I loved it and used it on one of my tuto­ri­als. I would love to give the pho­tog­ra­pher some credit, but I can’t find it on the free photo site I used.
