with CS3 you will need to rasterize the text layer before you attempt to use the free transform.

I also had to set the final layer to color burn in order for the underlying text to show through.

To select the text layer, you click the thumbnail image in the layers palette, not the actual text layer to select it.

this part:

Now, find the center of your image. You can do this by selecting the background layer, pressing [Ctrl + A] to Select All, and dragging some guides towards the center. When they find the center, they should snap-to. Drag your text layer to the center of your image. Create a new layer underneath and fill it with white.

Hold [Ctrl] and click on the text layer, making sure you have the new white layer selected. Fill your selection with black. You might see a little black outline like this..

doesn’t work with me..i am using cs3 so it probably has all the latest features (xcept stonehenge stuff) but can’t understand it…i can’t fill it with black because it says i chose 2 layers…help!!!!!!!!!
