I know there has to be a way to make the little copyright symbol in photoshop CS but can't figure out how. Anyone know? Thanks.

Honestly, I don't have clue. But, you could always just make a little circle with the circle tool and type a "c" and put it in the middle of the circle. It's ghetto, I know, but it would be pretty quick and easy and it'd probably do the trick.

Believe it or not, those font files in your font directory have a whole plethora of characters beyond the English alphabet accessible by holding down the Alt key and typing in a four-number combination.

Start Menu --> Accessories --> System Tools --> Character Map --> Alt + 0169

only thing i miss about the mac.. special characters are much easier to do ..

but i've got copyright, TM and Registered keystrokes tattooed on my eyelids

That's a good tip; I didn't know how to do it either.

I always hunted the symbol down elsewhere on the internet -- not as an image, but as raw text -- and cut and pasted the text of the symbol into Photoshop, where it would be automatically incorporated into my writing in the font I'm using.

lame, but it works.

Heh. When I first figured out the special characters command, I painstakingly compiled a .txt file in notepad with every character and the corresponding key combinations. It took me a good.. 5 hours to finish.

I was so proud of myself for having created the nerd's Rosetta Stone, I immediately sent it to some choice online buddies. The savvy one said, "Dude, just use the character map. You'll save a lot of time."

I took some time to reconsider compiling a massive RGB --> HTML list at that point.
