Changing text colors in PSP:

Make sure you have the materials palette open before you do this. To open the materials palette, go to View>Palettes>Materials. This will open up a box on your screen with colors.

Then click on the text tool to open up the text box. Writer your text. Then, making sure you text is highlighting, go to the materials palette. There will be two boxes on the bottom of the materials palette. The bottom is the background and fill properties box and the top is the foreground and stroke properties box. Click on the bottom box - the background and fill properties box. A new box will open on the screen. Choose your color here. Click OK to close it.

Now let's look at the foreground and stroke properties box. Usually, I type my text with no background and stroke properties. I have the little O with the / going through it clicked. But if you want to outline your letters in another color, then click the round black circle and choose a color for your outline. At the top of the screen, you can change how thick the outline is by changing the size of the stroke width.

Hope this helps.
