Many of the software programs have trial versions that you can test out and see if they are "up to snuff"! I personally like Photoshop Elements. There are a ton of free tutorials on the web to show you how to do all kinds of things. There is also a forum (ElementsVillage) where you can get guidance!

Every time I want to do something new I just say to myself "there has to be a way" and there always has been!! I just experiment!!

There are many free components on the web that you can download to enhance your version of PSE. I personally like layer styles, shapes and patterns the best....there are also brushes.

Any new font that you download to your Windows will be available in PSE also...at least I haven't found any that don't work.

It is so much fun to just play around and see what you can create.

Good luck!!

I use Photoshop Elements as well. I use an old version so I am not sure if these directions will work with the newer versions but here is a tutorial for Photoshop Elements.

You can also try the directions in this thread (Thanks Dolly!) post #92 of how to make the name fills in Word.

Hi I have an Apple computer that is 4 yrs old. Does anyone know what program to use for name fills? I wanna do a Disney one and a Marvel one for my son Carter. And a Mom and Dad one with Disney..
As well a Disney Dream one with various Disney characters. Most of my friends that live near me have PCs.

i live in Costa Rica so its trickier to find stuff. So I have to make my own tees for our cruise. And will even be making our autograph books.

thank you in advance for any help you can give me
