Haven't seen a tutorial for this so I decided to make one. It may seem like simple stuff to some of you but others may not know how.

For my example I have used a 550x170 Pixel image size and the font used was Impact.


Step One:
Create the text
Spoiler (Click to View)

Step Two:
Resize the text to fit the desired area
Spoiler (Click to View)

Step Three:
Download the image you want and open in photoshop
Spoiler (Click to View)

Step Four:
Select the image then copy & paste on top of your text
Spoiler (Click to View)

Step Five:
With the image layer selected, go to Edit then Create Clipping Mask
Spoiler (Click to View)

Step Six:
It should look like this
Spoiler (Click to View)

Step Seven:
Move/resize the image until you get the desired look

[Optional]
Step Eight:
If you want a drop shadow select the text layer and press the fx button then Drop Shadow
Spoiler (Click to View)

Step Nine:
Experiement with the different options to see which you think is best then press OK

you can also create the clipping mask by holding alt and moving the mouse between the two layers
the top layer then becomes the clipping mask
