Lost Video Island

So thought it would be a good idea to start this! someone in my art thread asked how I do that picute-in-text thing, so thought I'd share!

I'm on some other non-Lost forums and these things usually are really good for helping each other so we could like all share something? Or even ask how something is done!

So this is a quick tut on how to get this effect:

This tut is on how to do it with one pic for all the text,not a different pic for each letter, that's slightly different.
so you should get a font that it big enough for you to actually see the picutres inside!

so open a new document, and put the text made it as large as you want (free format is usually best to make it as big as the one i'm doing)



It's good to have the pic you want to use open so you can kinda judge where the you want the faces to be etc.

Paste the pic onto the new document, making sure the picture is the top layer.


Select Layer>Create Clipping Mask

so it should now look like this:



woop!

You can now add some effects to make it fancy!

Remember and save as a .PNG file otherwise you'll end up with a white background!

Hope this helps!

Ooo, that's awesome, Debbie! Thanks so much for the tut! I have Paintshop instead of Photoshop so some things aren't translatable but I still love seeing how they were done!

Thanks again!
