How to add a text in photoshop UNIT 5

For this activity we are using photoshop to place text on the page . This is so we can make appropriate choices for the text on our game .


First off you have to open photoshop to start your task off , then create a new file by clicking file then new. A box will appear on the screen , then change it to pixels and insert 788 into width and 576 in height and press ok . A blank white page will appear .
Now the first part is done go to the icon which looks like a T which stands for text click it .
Now u would like to type in your name of your game in the blank white space . I type in mines which is fruit smart .
Hmm!! it docent look attractive to young audience , so i have to spice it up with some photoshop tool . I want to change the font and size and put some patterns as well with it .
First go to the top which it say 12 pt and change it to your desire taste of size then on the left you can also change the font of your work . Mines is shown below !! font is COMIC SANS MS BOLD pt is 18.

u must highlight the text before changing it . My changes is below now to get my text like that you could either press ctrl and right click on the text and go to text wrap or go to the top  or click that icon on the top .
A box will pop up looking like that and you could change the text wrap . Theres many to pick so i selected arc which looks amazing . when you have done selected your wrap text press ok and you have a wrap text.
Now i want to add in pattern in the text so now you have to double click on the blue layer not on the text in the blank space  between fruit smart and fx.
A box will come up looking like that so you could choose your pattern which u like .
thats how you get a custom made text for your game for young audience enjoy!!
