This question was inspired by Meetdilip's recent thread about the rubber stamp plugin. Upon trying to create some extra transparent text to add into the results of the output of the rubber stamp plugin, I realized I had no idea how to create transparent text.
I managed to use the Layer Effect-Drop-Shadow filter to create a semi-transparent text addition to the output, but was hoping for fully transparent text effects just as the Rubber Stamp plugin creates. To illustrate the failure I encountered, a red background was added to the image below. As can be seen, the text/username "Altie" is not fully transparent.
