I like the tutorial a lot! It's really easy to follow as I am an absolute amateur!

The bad thing is I can never make the copyright symbol to appear! I've tried it over and over again? Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?

Hi and Thanks.

The "Keys" that you use are what make the copyright symbol.

Hold "alt-key" then while holding "alt" type (on the number key pad: right-hand side of a desktop keyboard) 0169.

if you are using a laptop you will need to hold "alt-key + Fn-key" then use the alternate number keys within the keyboard to type 0169. when you release the "alt-key" the © will appear.

Let me know if you have any questions. i am a Dell PC user and this is the way that my systems work..

Hi Keith, Hey thanks for sharing your tutorial, i liked the results from it, I have one question if you are doing this and you have firework pics that you like how can you apply it to that? My back ground is too dark and i am afraid no one is gonna see the copyright image on my pics, yur comments on that. Thanks again! Tim McCuiston

Thanks Tim,

are you using white text when you set up your copyright? 1 other thing is to increase the opacity of the fill to pattern to 15% or all the way up to 20% as high as you want.

hope this helps.
