First, use the text tool to add lots of hilarious Family Guy references.

Then, use the sun flare and twirl tools until the cats come home.

Don't forget the Magnetic Lasso Tool.
(But Layers are more important, like the other dude said)
Here a demo of the power of... MAGNETIC LASSO TOOL!!! And 4 layers. (took like 3 minutes to toss together)

That's horrible.

Magnetic lasso tool is shit. There isn't a single situation where the polygonal lasso and/or the magic wand aren't a better choice.

Path tool is something brought over from illustrator. It lets your text follow non-linear lines. Or 'paths,' if you will. :posh

Not for Photoshop Noobs, they need to get the handle of the situation first. Magic Wand requires playing around with Tolernece, and if you want to outline a object, and you would still need to switch to Lasso or Polygonal Lasso to catch the pieces it was missing. And of course mines horrible, it not like I tried. >:
