so here is a tutorial on how to add text to a GIF image in PS ( i have used CS6 but i may work in versions less than that )
First of all open your PS window work area
so to file > open > my pictures or wherever your gif image that you want to add text in is saved
Now your GIF image is opened
First of all open your PS window work area
so to file > open > my pictures or wherever your gif image that you want to add text in is saved
Now your GIF image is opened
here the GIF image i have used has 40 frames = 40 layers
so the layer window in PS will look like
and the number of frames where are shown here
now go to layer
and then New > Layer..
a pop up window will apper asking about name type and all of the layer
color should be none
mode should be normal
other things also same as it is
just change the name of the layer to whatever u like is is easy to identify it among so many layers
then click on OK option
now you find that a new layer is added above layer one in your layer window
u need to hold on the layer and drag it up till it reaches above layer 40 i.e the last layer whatever upyr GIF image has.
now since your new layer is already selected in the tools option select the text button
and then place place the cursor where you wish to add your text
looks like this
now select the font style size and color
even alignment of text if u wish to chose
i have chosen these one u can chose the ones u wish to
now type the text u want like i have type "Zoya"
now if u don't like the position of your text
chose Move tool
and then drag text to the place you want it to be
now that you are finished with the main process select the play option in your timeline to see if it works properly and text is added in all frames
keep in mind that the forever part is selected
now after playing the GIF and knowing that text is added properly
go to File
and then since it is a GIF image Save for Web
and pop up window apperes
check the highlighted/marked things
and click on save
In the save window type the name of image like for example 123a and then add .gif so its like 123a.gif though adding .gif is not necessary if suggest doing so.
and now your GIF image along with text is saved in your computer :)
hope this is easy to understand
if any problem contact me :D
