Do you not know how to add text? What image editing software do you use?

Or is it that you don't know what words to add?

Hmm.. can I see the original? Doesn't really look like you did anything, tbh. But if you want to add some text, I would probably move the subject off to the side; she's too dead center, imo.

Well it all depends on the colors of the image and the position of the text.

Maybe put the text somewhere near the top right corner. I think like a sort of rusty (like orange rust) mettalic effect. I'm pretty sure you can just apply a texture to the text to give it that rusty effect. Good Luck. thumbsup.gif

I like reading paragraphs and not lots of caps letters and exclamation marks in topic titles. Gives me headaches.

And in response to you question about fonts, I would use Vipir Nora - http://img.dafont.com/dl/?f=viper_nora
