In Photoshop/Imageready’s (version 7, Windows) Free Transform does a decent job; I hold Ctrl and click on one of the four corners of the layer’s "frame," and can drag it anywhere to distort the image (ie. making a head-on image of a television look like it’s being viewed from the side, etc.). But what I’d like to do is be able to "bouw out" the dies as well. Meaning, a type of "Cenvert Ancho point" command performed on the handles of the side or top of a layer’s image.
Meaning that with the handles that appear around a layer’s image when one chooses Edit–>Free Transform (a handle at all four corners and a handle at the midway point on all 4 sides between the corners), I could drag the MIDDLE handle (not one of the corner ones) outward, and the corner handles on that side would stay still, and I could create a curve on that side (kind of like converting the anchorpoint in a path and creating a curve instead of a straight line). An example would be taking a photo of a TV screen with a show on it, and curving its sides so it looked like a fish-eye lens TV, not just a TV seen from a different angle.
Am I describing this right?
I tried making the selection of the layer’s image a path, and then distoring that, but it didn’t work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks for reading.
….and for those of you who are into that sort of thing, enjoy the Superbowl!
