Of course, you can express or emphasize your idea with an image, convey information, mood or desire, but you can’t do without comments, and here, as it is not so rare, it turns out that we don’t know how to insert text into the image.
Such a problem can occur for those PC users who have not looked at the "Standard" folder in the "Start" menu for a long time, where for centuries the legendary graphic editor Microsoft Paint, included included with all Windows OS. Paint interfaces vary slightly between versions, but pasting text into an image is equally easy in any of them.
We sign the picture in Paint
For example, in Paint 6.1 you need to click on the upper left blue button with a light triangle, then click on the folder icon with the inscription "Open" (Ctrl + O) and select your picture. You can also get into the file selection window by clicking on the "Insert" label immediately below the blue button in the upper left corner and selecting "Insert from". You can open the file even faster by clicking on the folder with the blue arrow at the very top (above the menu bar), but the traditional Ctrl + V (or the "Paste" button) is out of competition in speed if the picture was previously copied (Ctrl + C) to the clipboard.
Now we look up at the menu bar and find the group of "Tools" icons, where it’s universal for many graphic editors the “A” icon makes it clear who is in charge here and how to insert text in the picture.
Click on the icon, then on the picture anywhere. Why in any? Because the frame created by clicking to enter text with the eagerly blinking cursor can not only be stretched by the corners, but also moved around the image when the cursor is "surrounded" at the intersection with the outline of the frame. Looking up again, we see that the Text tab has opened in the menu, and the color palette has rolled up to her right. It remains, having selected the parameters, enter the text and click somewhere on the side.
In the Start menu in the Microsoft Office folder, there is another regular program in which such a task as inserting text into a picture is one of the "direct duties". This is the most popular PowerPoint presentation application.

Next, here, in the menu of the "Insert" tab, click on the "Label" button (sheet with the letter "A"), then on the picture, after which we get to the "Home" page with the cursor blinking in the frame, where we select the parameters and enter the text. And if you press the WordArt button in the menu of the "Insert" tab (with the slanted letter "A"), you can choose a decorative font for the text , decorated in one of 30 predefined styles. Choosing a style by clicking on the letter, we will get to the "Format" page, where, having entered the text, we can "get up" with the inscription whatever your heart desires, using the numerous functions of font and background decoration.

Having opened the editor, you can open the file selection window and get a picture without even going to the File> Open menu if you double-click on an empty workspace. Then we turn on the Text tool (T), click on the image and, having adjusted the parameters in the panel at the top, enter the text, then bringing down all the power of the editor’s toolbox.

The drawing will do so, that is, it will “stand” behind the blinking cursor on a new line, and we will find ourselves on the “Format” tab with a lot of quality parameters and drawing styles, including the position on the page and text wrap.
