I am using PhotoshopCS1
This is what I want to to… I’ve got a big circle and want smaller circles along the inner edge with the same spacing inbetween each of them. I am doing it insections and hopefully if it works right I could simply duplicate 1/4 of it 3 times to complete all the way around.
So, I am working on the top right section now.. I’ve got the top circle and the one on the right.. and was wanting 14 equally spaced circles inbetween those two going along the inner edge of the larger circle. http://drewclayton.com/circles.gif
as you can see, I used the guides and made each one 14 pixels apart (since total top to bottom height is 211pxs). But, the nature of the shape of the big circle is preventing me from getting equal spacing. Hard to explain, but you can see it here: http://drewclayton.com/circles.gif
I tried eye balling it instead but that just drove me nuts. I’d like to get it exact if possible. This will eventually be the base of a clock.. Some of the circles will be low oppoacity outlines and some will be solid for the mins and hours of the clock. Can Photoshop do this? Or will I have to use Illustrator or some other program? Would making a brush with a 14pixel spaceing work?.. and then simply follow the outline of the edge? I thought such a seemingly simple thing wouldn’t take so long.
