You could put the frame on a new layer and free transform it, that might work, but you might be better off with paths and carefully draw your own oval to fit, then convert it to a selection and add your frame/berder. Wayne |

Just thought the filters distort/pinch might help if you play about with the settings it might warp it enough??? Wayne |

If I were you, I would first lasso all the text evenly then invert the selection. After that I would filter>distort>pinch INTO towards the text. But yeah; I think swanseamale got it. |
