Placing Text over an image like jpeg

Clarifications

Do a web search, I found some decent trial SW that did this just fine for my 1 time use. If you need to do it more often, I would suggest trying out a few and then buying a copy of the preferred SW

If you have MS Powerpoint, (or I assume any Powerpoint type software) you can simply insert a picture into a slide and then insert a text box over the slide and enter your text into the slide. After that simply save the slide into your favorite picture format and walla. You have a picture with text over it. You can see an example on my site from nov 22, 2008 where I did just that. www.leadercast.com

depends if all you want to do is just place text over the picture or make it a part of it. Whatever O.S. you have it should have a very simple picture editor. It can be done in MS Paint or Open Office Draw. If you want a really professional look with features like transparency try GIMP gimp.org it is an open source editor, creator, their site has some really good tutorials on how to use it and once you get the hang of it an excellent product. Because it is open source it is free to download and use.

Good luck and Have Fun!!!!!
