Reader Lane Loman would dearly love to slap some text on pictures he plans to post to his website. He writes:
I own three Apple computers—an eMac, iBook, and Mac mini. I have been trying to find out how to put text on a picture for my web site. If iPhoto offers this possibility, I have not yet discovered it. Is there a program that you could recommend if adding text to photos is not possible with iPhoto?
Instagram Apps For Writing Text
Users can choose whether to convert the writing into text as they write, or use the app as a traditional handwriting app and convert the writing at a later date. Writing on your Android tablet doesn't offer nearly the (over) abundance of app choices as on an iPad, but Write checks off most of the boxes for anyone looking for a simple writing app. Mac Apps, Mac App Store, iPad, iPhone and iPod touch app store listings, news, and price drops.

What App To Use On Mac For Writing Text Over A Photo
Wonderful as iPhoto may be, imposing text on pictures is a lot to ask from a program that was designed largely as a way to organize, display, and lightly edit your digital photos. I admire your desire to use a bundled application to perform this task, however.
For this reason I suggest that you open your Applications folder and launch one of the Macs’ copies of AppleWorks. Cantankerous as AppleWorks can be, you can still drag a picture from iPhotos into a draw document, create a block of text within that document, drag it to where you’d like it on the picture, and export the results in the supported format of your choosing.
