Use a clipping group to place an image inside of a background of text, with another layer of text placed in front to create depth.

Your videos are pure class, i am consistantly overwhelmed and inspired by the depth of photoshop. Thank you very much.
you are amazing.
Corey, great tutorial. I was able to immediately apply this effect to a number of sports posters for my kids and niece. They loved them so much they ordered a bunch right away. You make it easy Corey. You must really love what you do!
Nice tutorial, really cool.

Corey, thnx a lot.
dat was too cool and really helped me.
Hello.. it’s very nice.. But what’s the key combination for the Repeat Motion of the text. I don’t understand very well. Btw I have windows. Thx for helping me.
grtz
i really want to know how those flowers and leaf-like drawings, you know, like the ones on the flash ad above there.
looks really cheesy with those images and typeface. a very clean look with this technique only. this is way overkill IMO. but then again its not one for a portfolio – just a tutorial, and great one to learn from.
There’s a lot of people laughing in the background of this tutorial
nice tutorial! but how can i download it?
were you in a mall when you did this?
great tut
that’s hot
Im pretty new to photoshop and everytime I attempt to add my own picture the picture is HUGE. Do you know how i can adjust the size so its not as massive when I add it to my text?
Its very great. Thanks for the tips!
hi thanks the great tutorials
hi the great tutorials nice thanks
Really great tutorial. Got it to work well even in Elements by experimenting a bit to find the same commands with different names or keystrokes. A lot of fun and very educational. My image ended up not having the detail yours did (too much background showing and too many colors in the photo) – I need to experiment a lot with text size and photo choice to get it right. Thanks for a great video.
thanks for the great tutorials
Your tutorials are amazing!
mine came out absolutely great
your easy to understand and your unbelievably helpful
video tutorials are the best and most are made horrible and confuse you from the start but i was not lost one bit during yours and it was quicker and simpler than i thought!
Thank you more than you know! -Aisha
This is one of my favorite tutorials!!! I used on some pictures of my friends that are graduating high school this year…. and gave the final product to them as a graduation present…..they loved it!!!!
to add something extra to it, i erased the text covering their face and body using a soft round brush. the result was gorgeous!!!!!!!
It used to be that if I wanted to fill text with an image, I would do Ctrl+Layer and then Paste Into the selected text. Masking makes more sense!
Thanks for the new tricks!
great tutorial.
i couldnt get the drop shadow or stroke to work, it just didnt do anything, have i done something wrong?
bein in high school photo class is amazin… but this is one of the coolest things ive learned…. tanx
so cool !
Wild!! This was NICE!!…..
I had learned a new point from this.
