make sure your image resolution is something like 72ppi for screen work or 300ppi if going to print. you might have a very large or small value in the resolution field. (image> image size)
Look at how big your image is in pixels [Image Size or ruler]. Figure out what kind of size you want the text to be [still in pixels]. Enter this size as the text size like this: "99px". PS will immediately convert this to the right size in points.
BTW, sorry if I’m sounding a bit over sensitive, but I do find the use of the word "retard" rather offensive.
To call oneself a retard is nothing offensive. Retard is to slow or prevent advancement or accomplishment. Why is it less offensive to say "slow" instead of "retard," especially since "mentally retarded" is now "mentally challenged," since those terms specify the slowing is mental? How about physically retarded, or emotionally retarded?
Would it be less offensive to call oneself a moron, idiot, or numbskull??? Sheesh, you PC-types!

Thanks for that. Political Correctness will kill freedom of speech if we let it.
My mother taught "backward" children. I don’t even know what "PC" term is used for them now.
If a small person is called "vertically challenged", who knows? BTW I have some very good friends who are below 5’2".
No offence to the illiterates who can’t even read this.
