kitchens Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Hi all I'm making some party invitations for my son and want to use a photo of him as the invitation. I want to put the invite details on the photo as a text overlay but don't want a text box I want you to be able to see the full photo with the writing over the top. Is there some software I can buy to help me do this? My photo editing software that came with my camera wont let me do this. Help!!!!!!!!!!

Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 You could send the photo to me and I could see what I can do ? I have Corel Photo House which lets you put text on without a box . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitchens Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 Hi ANH Thank you for your offer but I wouldn't want to bother you. I am happy to buy something because this isn't the first time I've wanted a product to do this. Would you recommend it? Could you let me have the full name of the product including the version number. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 You could do it in Powerpoint? As you could add text over the top without there being a text box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I honestly wouldn't mind . I really don't think you need to buy anything - like Debs says you could use a program you already have. To be honest, my Corel PhotoHouse and Printhouse I have are ancient. I don't even know if they do a new version . If you are happy to send it to me I can have a shot (I'm stuck here with a torn calf muscle so can't do much else anyway ). EDIT: I've just had a look at Photobucket and you can add fancy text, stickers, etc with it . I'm having a play around and will post my first attempt .

Falkor Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Microsoft Publisher should also let you do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Just noticed you're sorted but wanted to share this with you anyway (it took me ages ). ~~~~~~~~~~ Now you may want to use this fabulous Photobucket creation yourself (no charge ) but if not, it gives you an idea of what you can do .
