whs37 Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 (edited) You have to do that in a few steps.1. Go to INSERT > SHAPES and draw a rectangular shape2. Cick on DRAWING TOOL (above) and go to SHAPE FILL. Choose PICTURES and fill the shape with your (faint) picture3. Go to INSERT > TEXT BOX and draw a text box on top of your picture. Now you can write into that.4. For Picture inserts on top of the original picture you can repeat steps 1 and 2Note: You can eliminate the shape outline, change the shapes with EDIT SHAPE (top left in the FORMAT tab), you can do special effects with SHAPE EFFECTS, etc. There are a lot of possibilities and those are just a few.Here is a little sample I made. Took me about 4 minutes to make it.Just found another sample that I had made another day. This may correspond more to what you are trying to do. Edited November 8, 2008 by whs37
