how I do it-

open pic with Paint {right click on pic and select open with...}or open Paint and then use file /open {then locate pic that way}

then adjust the size if needed - Image /stretch/skew- and adjust percentages - if too small or too big use undo{ in edit toolbar tab} to try again.

when you get the size you want-

then click on the A in the left side tools area - that is for text box
place cursor on pic click once, hold and slide to make a text box to the size you want. when the size it good release the button.

below the the tools on the right a box will show where you can click to make the text box transparent or with a colored back ground
the color choices are at the bottom of the screen.

to add the writing just click in the text box and type
if you wan tto choose or try other fonts make sure in the tool bar under View that Text Toolbar is clicked to show.
after you type you can try out other fonts and sizes by just clicking thru the font list.

then when done click save or just close and it will ask you to save it.
if you want to keep the original use the "save as" and make a new name -sometimes i just add a number or letter to the original name.

then post your test pic here for display

Lara, I'm not sure what you meant by referring to my other signature question. They are similar but not the same. Can you let me know so I can understand what I may have done wrong?
I always try to learn new things. Thank you so much,
