I'm trying to make this pic of a person holding a sign, then write whatever I want on it, and not be able to tell it is photoshopped. What is the best font for doing this?

I would assume you'd have to set up the shot correctly. If its a surfer offering free breast exams a chaulk looking text would look right..If the text is anouncing the end of the world by somebody in a robe maybe some biblical roman-looking text would set the mood.

I think it depends on what is being said and by whom.

no no he is asking how to make a font look like its been hand drawn.
1. you could always use the brush tool and draw it yourself. (im assuming you do not have a drawing tablet.)
2. try to find a hand lettering style font
3. use a skinny font and try and maybe use different filters on top one another untill you find the look you are going for.

for the sign part. you can use the perspective, or distort tool transform the text so that it looks like it is on the same angle as the sign etc. then you could set the blending mode to overlay or somthing like that so that it looks like it is actually on the sign.
just some ideas. show us what you come up with.
