How do i do this ?? heeelp please!

I want to take and make fonts and have the insides of the fonts be
filled with a picture. I think you call that masking? or image
mapping? Can anyone point me toward a tutorial? I use to use a program
like pixel3d to make the 3d fonts and map the picture onto it, but i
don't have a full version of that pgm and it writes "sample" on the
image. Can anyone tell me of another pgm that might do that?
THANK You!!!

An alternative method is to create your type layer -- do not
rasterize, leave it as vector text.
Place your picture on a new layer on top of the text.
ALT-Click on the line in the layers pallette that separates these two
layers. This creates a clipping group, causing the text to now
contain your image. The primary advantage of this method is that your
text and image both remain editable.

Thanks so much for the directions. I'd been wondering how to do that
too. I just tried it and it worked for me.

Not sure about the take and make aspect!!
But to fill a font with a picture - open your image - select the 'Horizontal
or Vertical Type mask tool' Type the text you require at the size you want -
move the text over the picture to the place you want to copy, change to the
select tool - copy and then paste to a new layer.

Hi,
I'll do you a video tutorial to demonstrate this and put it on my site
at www.graphicsdistrict.com if you like. Send me an email (there's a
link on the front page of the site) and give me the full details of
what you'd like to see and I'll have it done within a few days.
