What version Publisher? The autoshapes and line drawings can be curved... You can
ungroup an image and manipulate the separate parts.

While in a state of ecstasy after repairing his laptop, Ed sees a
message from steffie . On it is
written:
How can I bend an image, making it rainbow shaped?


Using a photo manipulation application?
(Does anyone know if Microsoft Digital Image Pro can do this?)

====================================
DIP can skew and distort an image in many
ways and shapes but a simple arc like a rainbow
is not included. There may be a plug-in filter that
can do it but I'm not aware of one.

You could choose an arc at...Add / Shape...then
you could fill it with an image. Only problem is it
will be like a cutout...it won't include the complete
image.

OK, but filling an autoshape with a
picture still results in a cutout.

Do you know a way to bend an image
into an arc?

So you've done an in-depth comparison of DIP 10 vs PSP9, then?! PSP is only
feet behind Photoshop. DIP isn't worthy to lick PSP's boots...
