5. place your text where you want. prefferably small text, color black.

6. text blending options.

>drop shadow
>>1. opacity 100%
>>2. distance 3
>>3. spread 0
>>4. size 3

7. select two colors from your pallet, and open a new layer.

8. on the new layer, create clouds.

Filter> Render> Clouds

9. set the cloud layer to soft light.

this is what i have so far


10. since mine is way too dark, ill merge the layers as visable

Layer>merge visable

11. Then, ill go to Image> Adjustments> Exposure, and brighten the exposure.

this is what i have after those two steps


12. Almost done. now just create a new layer, ctrl + a to select the whole layer, and go Edit> Stroke> 2pxl black. This will

make a border thats actually 1pxl black.

YOUR DONE!

[Michael]

This tutorial is for PhotoShop CS2. But more than likely you can use it as a sort of guide in PSP for a lot of the stuff are very similar.
