Description So, I've gotten quite a few people asking me how I create my Pics-in-letters WPs, and had thought about creating a tutorial about it for a while. So, now I have. It's not the best or fanciest tutorial out there, but I tried to explain what I do step by step as best I could. I use Photoshop Elements 7, so obviously, that's what the tutorial will work for. Don't know how well it will apply to other versions of Photoshop or whatever, but feel free to try.

Also, if you do create something based off this tutorial, please leave a link in the comment section! I'd love to see what people come up with!

either change the font size as you're typing, or after, use Control + T, then your mouse to resize and move it.

I'm sorry to be writing to you like this.. But when you said "Simplify Layer" On Photoshop cs5 its called "Rasterize Layer."

Hey I try to type and stil nothing. I cant take a photo of it. The Botton is not working. I look at the tutorial on my cell phone and I go though the step and still nothing.

Well, considering what I know from elements, there's 2 things I can think of that might be the problem.
1.  You're typing underneath another layer.  Make sure that your text layer is the topmost layer so you can see what you're doing.
2.  The color of your text is the same color as your background layer.  Make sure your text color is different than the color of your backgroud so you can see it. 
If neither of those things work, I'm not sure what the issue is.  Sorry.
