 |

Okay, I'm trying to show how the earth rotates. So I need a curved arrow.
I made an arrow from the shapes in photoshop, but is there anyway to bend/curve the arrow?
thanks  |

I think it may be best done in a drawing program, such as Illustrator or Freehand, and brought into PS. |

Get to KNOW ALL of the functions of the Pen Tool AND paths. Then you will be able to create a curved arrow the way you want.
The pen tool and path is way too much detail for me to go into here for you.
TRUST ME on this.
If you go to HTTP://www.bertmonroy.com and take a look at Bert's works in his galery, ALL of the shapes that are in his paintings were created with the Pen Tool.
Good luck!
