Howdy everyone,

Our gaming clan is setting up Battalions to fight in our supported games, and in doing this I wanted to create Battalion images.

I have the ideas, and all I need to is the ability to warp text around the circle, but my program isn't doing what I need.

I'm using Photoshop Elements 4.0, unfortunately not CS2 or anything of the like, however I've found this program does most of what I need it to.

Using the attached image below, I'm attempting to warp "1st" on the top part, inside the ring, and "Battalion" on the bottom inside the ring. However warping it the way I have so far, isn't even, and parts of the text are either inside or outside the appropriate ring. Heres my warping process:

Create warped text-->Horizontal Arch-->Bend +37 or so.

However this just isn't working, anyone have any other suggestions? Is my text size part of it? Possibly my font? Or will this program simply not be advanced enough?

Thanks!
Truestar
