Something different today,
Im posting this for a friend, My hope is to show how this might be done, tho Im in no way an expert! I wrote this piece of poetry years ago and I took the photo a couple weeks ago.
The Image:
The image must be 700X550 or (around there) to keep Renderosity from resizing it, there can be NO full view or zoom for this. The background should be a blur so the text can be read easly and the main object in the photo should be to one side or the other to make space for the text. This will limit your text to 25 or 30 lines.
The Text:
The text should be at 3.5 or 4 points in size and spaced off in sections. The text needs to be as visually pleasing to the reader as the photo is and just as easy to read. If your backing is light then the text should be dark and vise versa. The above text is outlined in black and has a drop shadow to make it even easer to read. Id stay clear of cursive or fancy fonts, Keep it simple and easy to read, the above font is arial and comes with windows I think.
Overall:
Notice I tried to make the text match the photo? Everything should go together in color and texture and If possible the photo should reflect what the text is saying, tho Mine here may not lol :)
I hope my humble attempt to help my friend actually helps, Not sure if its all right or not but if I was gonna do this I would start with thease things.
No zooming :)

excellent composition and tutorial, my friend! very similar to what i've tried to do in the past, before i started creating my own images... in my early attempts, though, i had to fade out part of the image to create room for my words, which made the image look contrived - i like your version much better! now, of course, since i'm drawing my own images, i'm limited to their empty spaces to squeeze my verbosities into, lol, unless i start creating my images with out-of-focus portions... hmmm, something to think about... :) your technical data on what font sizes, etc., will work for rr-posts are very helpful - i'll definitely play around with that! thanks so much for posting this!
