I'm new at this, and I can't manipulate my text into a circle (or wave, heart or anything else, for that matter!) I've tried the journaling templates from Atomic Cupcake, but they short out the program and it closes my PSE4. HELP! Using the text warp does distort it, and can't get a full circle...

.I went to www.atomiccupcake.com and got a freebie download that will allow you to do those. It works great! Try that and i hope it is what you are looking for! I use PSE3 also! Good luck I had to delete the words it had in there for me and I resaved before I used the template, maybe this will help.

I use PSE 4 and this is how I do it, ( I am also new at this, but I have been reading like a crazy woman to understand what is going on- just got three books in the mail - I am so happy to share when someone else needs help

**click the text box, type in your text. Above your palette bin on the right hand side you will see two T's between "color" and the "circle with a line through it". click the left the T (with the curve underneath it) change the style to whatever you would like to do.

I hope this helps. please let me know if you need more help (or explaination- I reread this and I am hoping I explain it well enough)

atomic cupcake's text is for PSE 3.0 ONLY. wont work in 2.0 or 4.0

and you can use the "create warped text", but you will not get the effect that i think you are looking for. using it to create a circle of text distorts the text.

best bet is if you have PSE3, use atomic cupcake's template.
