Hi,
You can warp any object this way. Just select a layer* (or portion of a layer) and pull down "Edit > Transform > Warp". Now you can distort object either by moving the mesh segments or by selecting a "Warp" preset (e.g. "Flag") in the Options bar.

*If you want to transform the "Background" layer, either duplicate it [Ctrl+J] or select its content [Ctrl+A] first.

This person would be well advised to increase the canvas space to make room to work with the warp.

I seriously wish people would include the version of Photoshop, or Elements so we can help with the correct menu calls.

But Andrei has given a good "generic" answer.

In Elements, that would be:

Image > Resize > Canvas Size (then double the sizes)

but "warp" is not available in Elements.

Those of you who grew up with Adobe from the beginning, learned this lesson well in Illustrator... several years before Photoshop was invented.

Hello Guys!
how u doing?

* I'm using Photoshop 7.0 in Windows XP.

There is no Warp option in Transform. (may be its becoz of an old version). I tried to warp through 'free transform' but it dint work as I want.
Can U help me out if I can able to use 'warp' using Photoshop 7?

This is why it's so important for people to include VERSION and OPERATING SYSTEM in their posts!!!!

There is NO "Warp" for anything other than Type in Photoshop v7.

In order to "Warp" an image, you need to use the TRANSFORM function called "DISTORT"

ALSO = colorizing type, and making it smaller in this forum is really not necessary. Posters and Readers here are not concerned with "decoration" of posts... only the CONTENT.

Hello ADMIN!
thanks for your reply and I'm agreed with it.

But regarding my posting style (which is called 'decoration' ) is just my style to post. Mostly, I tried to use colorful OR bold to show more concern and to make my posts lil different so that I can immegiately find it .
But If it is restricted OR even not liked, then I'm sure I wont use next time.

Thanks!
