Need help with Photoshop

Adding text to a logo created with photoshop

[amythepoet]

Hi,

I am a new user to Photoshop and need help adding some text to my logo.

How do I do this please?

I am on a mac.

The Photoshop help is pretty good on this.

You need to click on the text logo in the floating toolbar, then click a location on the image, the text box opens up, you can choose your colour, font etc and position the text exactly before clicking on OK to finalise the text. Do it in a new layer to be on the safe side so you can delete the layer if you don't like it. But all that applies to PCs. Photoshop is probably not much different on a mac.

Thank you for your note but I'm lost with Photoshop. I got the font little while ago that the original designer used.

I have uploaded that font into photoshop, but now am lost.

Is there any way you could help me do it?

On the PC version you have a floating toolbar with little icons for the different functions/tool. There is one icon with a "T" which is the Text Tool.

After you've opened the image click on "T" and then click anywhere in the image. The Type Tool dialogue box will open and will have a drop down box to choose fonts.

Hi, Thank you for your note. But now I think I am going to have the site redesigned altogether. :)
