Now we have a shattered text, then I thought: umm, perhaps it will be nice to add some water drop on top of it? I guess that will be an interesting effect.

3. Now select the Lasso tool( ). Left click and hold to draw randomly over the text. Don't worry what it looks like, just make sure it passes over the text at least once.

This tutorial aims to give a simple way of adding a shattered glass effect to an image using some very basic tools.

Also, we want to make the 'head shards' appear to be floating in mid air. To do this I apply a simple drop shadow to give them a little depth.

As for font choice, I would suggest you use some clean fonts  to maxmise the effect. Here is a nice collection of clean font and you can choose from: Clean font showcase. From the list, I chose this font for the tutorial.
