picture inside of text. (go back »)

Alright, so this is a very simple thing to do. It's only a few steps, and the result is actually pretty acceptable. lol, so simple. First, open up the picture you want inside of your text. I'm using this one I edited for my roleplayer, you can use this to follow along or use your own, whatever floats your boat! :D

Okay, so after you have your image opened, don't do anything other than go to EDIT; DEFINE PATTERN. Name it whatever you want to, and click okay. Now heres the next step. Youre done with that image, so make a new image by going to FILE; NEW. Play around with the settings until you get a decent sized canvas thing to work with. Go ahead and use your text tool and type something.

Okay, here's where it gets a little confusing. Go to, LAYER; LAYERSTYLE; PATTERNOVERLAY. Then, in the little box, select the picture that we started off with, and it should place it inside of the text. You can move it around by just clicking over it. Other than that, add a border to the text and youre done.
