No, no ... don't be hard on yourself.
Just remember to give as much information as possible. Compare it to a broken car. You call the mechanic:
- My car is broken. Can you fix it? = I have software.
- My car, a Honda, is broken. Can you fix it? = I have Adobe.
- My car, a Honda Civic, is broken. Can you fix it? = I have Adobe Photoshop Elements
- My car, a 1987 Honda Civic, is broken. Can you fix it? = I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 4
So ..... which version of Photoshop Elements?
While Adobe uses fairly universal system of filters and layout for the tools, the exact location varies from program to program, and even from version to version.
Basically you need to add a drop shadow effect to the text layer. I can give a step by step if I know what program, and what version. And yes, it's an easy process. Painless as can be.
So just give the version, and I'll be good to go!
