Mary,

Thanks for the link. I have just tried it out and it works really well.

I didn't realise that if you do text on a path in Photoshop then it is still editable when it is opened in elements ...

The rest of the site looks good too .. I have bookmarked it

Thanks Mary.

That is a really good site. I have bookmarked it too. Also went to their colorizer thing. Really handy for choosing colors that will work together.

Jodi,

Text on a path is slow !! .. it needs a powerful machine . Its a bit like liquify when you do lots of big changes.

Wendy or Jodi,
Where do you put this folder once it's been dowloaded? I read the instructions, but don't really understand how to use these.
Thanks,
Carol ops:

What a great discovery Mary, Thank you :wink:

I'm with everyone else..I NEED more computer power

[Deborah]

I'm in trouble.....after the download where do I add this?
holy moly I hate finding where to put things...

[Wendy]

OK ...

... now don't panic

All you do is leave it in a folder ... somewhere handy. Then when you want to do text in a circle (or one of the other shapes) you just open up the file (just like you do any other image) and simply drag the layer onto your own image.

Then you will be able to edit the text just as thought you had typed it in yourself ...
