Using the same method of individual text boxes I arranged the letters to look like a mountain range which is the phrase I used.

By creating a text box and putting in an emoticon and then rotating the text box to make the emoticon upright, I have created a picture that goes in a sentence.

By changing the text on my page into a raster image I was able to manipulate the pixels as if it were a normal image. therefore I used the lasso tool to select the top half of the text in such a way that it looks cracked and then slightly moved it to give it that look.
