wrapping text around an object - sphere/3d

Posted: 09-03-2003, 08:47 PM
have a graphic i made a few years ago with a globe that has text wrapped around it so it looks like it is 3-d, spinning around the globe. i thought i used the 3-d filter to do this but i can't seem to get it to work and i need to re-create the image. what is the best way to get this effect, and why doesn't the 3d tool seem to work? i create a cylinder or sphere around the text in the 3-d dialog box but when i click okay nothing seems to happen.

any ideas?

thanks!!
erica =)

tried that but it's too hard to get it right, it distorts it a lot... any other ideas?

Erica,

Ideally you would use a 3D application to create such an image

Dedicated 3D application.

Seriously, for the control you're after this is the smartest solution.

Try the 3D transform filter tutorial at TeamPhotoshop.com. They wrap text around a sphere with no problem.
