# Hello lads...
Now here's a challenge for yez... Just got this from the Darwin Awards website...

'Drawing?! Are you a graphic artist? I am trying to create a new version of the DarwinFish, this one with 'Darwin Awards' inside a feet-up expired fish with a cross for its eyes. No luck with computer tweaks of the text to get it to fit inside the ovoid;
instead I think I'll need to draw it by hand. Any advice, or am I way off base?
Darwin'

# Fit text to curve
There is an option to fit text to a curve in CorelDraw. You might be able to land an older copy om ebay of your favorite used PC grot shop. The feature goes back to at least version 4

# correction!
Opps.. you want to use the ENVELOPE tool in Corel. I was just playing with it.. works ok.

# Darwin awards. Pah
Ever tried their forums?

A bunch of (self assessed) high IQ'd twits spending all day posting messages about nothing whatsoever.

(As opposed to photoshopped penguins. Hmm. OK, just let me rant.)

Good reminder though - think I'll pop over and annoy some of them for a bit.
