    help with adobe photoshop

    how can i wrap text exactly as it's done in logo below
    i used all the wrap tools i could find, but they bend whole text. bottom line of text need to be flat

    I'm using (trying to use) adobe photoshop CS2 V9.0. Guess i should follow Gary(Retromotorsport), and change to MS Paint

    thanks in advance
    Cheers, Tepi

    After you have chosen the "Text" tool a bar on top should come up. Look for a button with a T and a curved line under it "click" it and then use "arc upper" or "arc lower" depending on which way you want to go.

    yes but that also bends the bottomline of text, and tilts the fonts on both sides

    That bends the whole text Scouse. I thought of that but it don't work.

    What you want is to bend the whole lot in a lower arc, then fix the 2 bottom corners, & lift the bottom of the text up flat but don't know if or how you can do that

    Tepi,

    Use Filter> Distort> Shear

    That might be better.

    Right, just had a go

    Add the plain text about where you want it. Now use the marquee tool to select it and then Edit Copy, Edit Paste

    This inserts a layer of into the picture but now the text is a graphic. In the layer tool remove the eye from the original text later to hide it (to avoid confusion).


    Now right click the new "text" and select Free Transform. You'll now see three symbols as below, click the one on the left and you'll be able to move all points of the graphic independently.

    Hope that makes sense.
