WORDS Typography artistic Collage - Please, How could this be done ?

I have seen this lovely collage compositions made with Words in different sizes and make them like if they are tiles in a floor.



I know and have tried that you can import words inside Filter Forge as shown here



But really do not know how would it be possible to build this into a tiled typograhy pattern.

Here is another example



and one more

I will make some texts in Photoshop and they will try to put them inside Filter Forge in some way to be able to get this above.

ALthough I think that is important to know how to control the spacing between the words too

I have put this thread also

Please, How to control the SPACING between particles in Bomber FF 3.0?

Although probably the bomber is not the best component for this, and would really be better to use the tiles component, do not know yet.

Nope to difficult to put whole words in FF...You would need to do something without the bomber....then maybe effects for each individual image...such as the rotating, scaling, texture effect, etc....With alphas you can use the multi-blend component...
I was also thinking about a script where you could put images in a folder and have FF access that folder, then use the images in that folder for a filter..But....I think Lua in FF does not yet support bit-maps...Then the filter cannot be submitted since it would be un-safe script.(accessing the users computer).......

I have been looking for tutorials for making this kind of pattern in Photoshop and the only one I found is these two

http://blog.spoongraphics.co.uk/tutor...ter-design

http://www.tutorial9.net/tutorials/ph...wallpaper/

and they make ALL by hand ONE BY ONE, each and every one of the text are handwritten in the computer, AND then have to position, scale, rotate and make the measurements all by yourself There should be a better way and easier. I will search for more.

I know and agree that I have to write the text and make the words, and this is not the problem, I am not searching for a word generator, but what I do not want is to position, rotate, measure the space, scale, etc. for one by one of the words.

The words can be real text (which in FF is not possible) or font images in JPG or PNG

FINALLY Thanks to the GREAT HELP from MORGANTAO I am able to make this

This is done with the excellent http://www.tagxedo.com/app.html

Would you be able do this manually ??

ALL is done automatically by the above online free app

The text for this WORD CLOUD is

Filter Forge versatile Photoshop plugin create textures effects
community filters online filter library create own filters visual filter editor
assembling components Seamless Tiling Bump Normal Maps Resolution Independent
HDRI Lighting Anti-Aliasing Multicore Presets Forum Standalone Randomizer render
photo effects filters library friendly easy generate textures visual effects distortions backgrounds frames fractal features images photo nodes

NOTE:

There are some errors inside some words because I have changed the background inside photoshop and the selection was not very good, sorry.

Square shape with Circle distribution and rotated layout text words

then inverting colors and making it black and white shades

Or instead of a mask with a background behind, another alternative is that you can put a texture layer over the words and use Hard Light Blend Mode.

The major downside of using Taxedo is you can't save as vectors (SVG).
In some of the other word clouds you can actually save SVG files that are scalable vectors, so you don't lose quality when zooming or resizing, and you can make selections very easily (So you don't have black holes in the O's, R's, D's, etc...).

One thing I know for sure, Taxedo is by far the most customizable word cloud generator, and if they will offer an offline version, I'll probably buy it, no questions asked

I forgot to put in this thread that I finally found the solution (not inside FF) and can be found in this other thread here
