ADD A SIGNATURE! (all images MUST have this!)
Let's add a TEXT layer to sign our photo!
Each image MUST have YOUR signature on the bottom right!
Select the Horizontal Type Tool
Click in the image near the BOTTOM RIGHT corner
Type YOUR First & Last Name
Notice! There is now a Text layer and the name of the layer is YOUR name!
Selected text
With the Horizontal Text Tool still selected, triple click (3x) your name
or click and pull to select your entire name.
With the text selected (highlighted)...
In the Properties Panel, change the font (you choose) under Character by clicking the pull down (arrow) menu
TIP: Try a Script font by clicking the filters on the left (Script)
With the text still selected...
Click the box to the right of COLOR
Make your name WHITE
or BLACK
(It depends on your image! If the bottom right is light, make it black, if it is dark make it White)
Different ways to do this:
Click the top left corner of the color picker
or RGB 255 each
or CMYK 0 each
or Hex #ffffff
Click OK
Text is large enough to read and does NOT over power the image!
Take a moment to check the Font SIZE
Is it an acceptable size as to not over power the photo?
Font and Size should be legible!
Clear enough to read but not over shadowing the image.
Leave a little room to the right and bottom so the text is not touching the edge...
Go to the MOVE TOOL (the 4 sided arrow) in the tool bar
Click and pull on the inside of the text of your name to move your name so it sits on the bottom right corner and looks acceptable (like a signature)
Be careful NOT to pull on any of the handles or it will change its size!
Be careful NOT to place signature up against the edge
