ok, you have a few options... i'll offer one... you have to play with
the numbers to achieve the effect you want...
1. draw a box where you want the text using the marquee tool...
2. feather the edges or switch to quickmask mode and guassian
blur it a bit... play around with the numbers... you'll probably do this
more than once...
3. make a new layer above your photo...
4. fill your selection with white...
dig?
