Somehow, when I use my TEXT tool to type on a JPG and click on it, The entire JPG turns red. I can't figure out how to get the TEXT tool back to being a normal text tool.

HELP! You can email also at militarybooks at sbcglobal dot net.

Thank you.

Sounds like you have the Type Mask Tool selected

For photoshop 6 click the T in the Tool Options Bar as indicated below

For photoshop cs6 select the Horizontal Type Tool

Thanks! It was the Task Mask option selected. I am not a photoshop guy other than a few basics.

THANKS!
