timepiececlockI'm having some problems with photshop text option.
I open a little pic in photoshop 6, and I want to add text to it. So I click on the "T" tool, and to use that I have to draw/select a box-frame on the picture where I assume my text would go. But instead of a cursor, I get this huge blinking cursor-type line that goes beyond the picture from the top of the screen to the bottom. And when I type my text, I can't see it no matter the color. But it shows up in the layer information window on the side. I'm very confused, and it's making me frustrated. The text doesn't show up, so I can't highlight it or adjust it because I can't see it, even though I typed it in.

And yes, the text size is normal. I've changed it anywhere from 6 to 18, and it doesn't show.

MAKE sure the layer you are working on is highlighted in the LAYERS pallet.

whatever color I chose, doesn't show up.

I am; the layer label on the pallet says whatever I type in, but on the image window itself it's not there.
