| is there a way to have the cloud go into the negative space while leaving the image in the middle?  I was able to successfully layer last December on a very complex item (using gimp) but cannot make it match up now. Any guidance would be appreciated. I do not mind a different approach so I figured I'd start with the actual cloud. Thanks! | |

| Yes there is a way. Tagul places words on non-white space. Thus you need to create a negative image that your shape image silhouette in white in the middle of a non-white rectangle. You can do it in any image editor or by enabling "negative" checkbox when adding your custom shape. | |

| But it removes the original image, right? And leaves white space surrounded by the words | |

| Sure it replaces the original image with the negative one | |

| So is there a way to have the negative image as a cloud and the original in place? | |

| There is no way to do it directly in Tagul but you can: - create a negative word cloud - download it in PNG format - open the PNG image in any image editing software and add your original image | |
