I've seen several photos here where someone takes a photo, then is able to type a message onto them before uploading them. I don't mean the message shows up below the photo. It's right 'ON' the message. Like "fold here" with an arrow, etc.

How is that done?

some photographic programs let you do it when you edit the pictures, check out your program to see if you can do it., other wise use paint to add text where you want it

you do it when you are in a photo program.

i use picasa3..i love it..i can edit and clean up the pictures and add text to them before i actually upload them for people to see.

Thank you. I've been trying to figure this out for a while. Apparently my low cost pc didn't come with any paint or photo editing capability.

picasa and most picture programs are free.
the great thing about them is, the pictures are stored off site..so if you loose your computer to a virus or something..the pictures are still there for you..give it a try..

If you have a Windows based PC, you should have Microsoft Paint.

In computers with Windows XP or later, you find it under Start > All programs > Accessories > Paint

Picasa will allow you to do a lot more than Paint. You can download Picasa for free here: http://download.cnet.com/Picasa/3000...-10160334.html
