Not sure if I am in the right section or not, but I was wondering if anyone can explain to me how to make a photo like these where you have multiple pics of yourself in one pic.. And how to put the text in.. I have a Photo Studio (that's portable) and can I add the Text there or do I do it in photo shop?? Here a few pics...





Any help is appreciated.. Thanks :)

Those look like Photoshop or one of the other similar graphics programs. You can upload your modified pic as a Targa, Bitmap, or JPeg. (i've done all 3 at one time or another).

The first one... might have been done in world (too dark to tell) with an interesting use of particles. But more likely was photoshopped to add them.

The 2nd one was definately photoshopped... you can't add text to your pics in world.

Open Photo Studio and see if you get a help menu, which is most likely to be on the top of your window at the right end of the row of menus. Click on it and open the help window. There is likely to be a box where you can type in a word or phrase and then do a search. Do this for the phrase floating text. If there is anything under the help section called a tutorial, open that and take the time to go through the tutorial. Even the parts that have nothing to do with the text. Taking time to do the tutorial is time well spent. You will get the know the way around Photo Studio and the next time you have a project you want to do it will be way more fun.

Thanks for the reply & help, but when I say Photo Studio, I mean a actual Photo Studio in SL, where I can pose for pictures.. I can change the background and floor colors and it also has something for floating text, I'm not to sure what that is or how it works... That is what I am wondering... Thank You :)
