  • wow it would be nice to show us HOW to get the word balloons

  • @Rakjokeproductions2 adobe illustrator

  • @TheXtremeGamer90 If you mean drawing people's faces, as far as I know you do that yourself (if you're the artist). You shouldn't expect a program to have a readied image of what you want. That's your job.

  • @dustybeijing You'd be surprised how many questions I've seen with people asking how to do word balloons and silly things like that on a computer.

  • @Dalen77 To load downloaded fonts into Photoshop, simply add them to your "fonts" in your computer (Control Panel -> Fonts), then open Photoshop. They should be there.

  • Hey ! I need a programme to create visual effects like peaple faces and some objectives ! After that i will finish it with ballons filling ! Please help !

  • If I wanted to use a computer to do my lettering for me, I wouldn't need a fucking tutorial.

  • I have photoshop and gimp, but I dont now what fonts i should get whether I should use free ones or buy them from comic craft, I also don't know how to load them in photoshop, does anybody know how to do this?
