Want to keep it simple...can it be done in Paint or Word....I'm not having much luck:(



EDIT: Just after posting wouldn't ya know I get it sorted!

It can be easily done with MS Paint, and with different fonts and text-sizes too. Just click on the toolbox with te big 'A' in it, and then a toolbar will appear. You can then change the font, it's size, and do bold, italics, etc.

If the toolbar doesn't appear at first, then go to the 'View' menu, and make sure that it's selected to appear. to change the text colour, just choose a colour from the colour palette box at the bottom.

Its also easy in word.


Insert your picture
Right click and select Format Picture
Choose the Layout tab
Select 'Behind text'

Then create your text using Word Art
Right click and select 'Format Word Art'
This time chose the 'In Front of Text' option

Now you can place your text anywhere on the image

I think you can do it in Word too by adding a watermark to the image.
