# Well thats rather odd!
Can I be so bold as to threadjack?

What I was trying to ask like a spacker earlier was if there is a way of distorting an image (other than liquify) like using the transform - distort option, but having complete control over the distortion rather than just the corner points?

# i'm sure
i found some filter once that you could put a grid over and drag the points about.

can't remember anything about it though.

# Thats the devil.
Ive just *ahem* found a plugin called Squizz that seems to do that, I just wondered if I could save the hassle and photoshop actually did it itself somehow.

# well i've certainly never stumbled into it
and if someone has been arsed to make a plugin i would guess not.

# you mean like
being able to put your own points anywhere, then using them to distort the image? I wouldn't know, but I hope there is (or at least a plugin)

# how about the distorsion filter?
in PS: displacement map. b/w pic and then distorsion displace. by defining the sublayer, you can define the distorsion.

# there's a tool in Illustrator
called gradient mesh which allows you to build a matrix over the image then 'push and pull' the image to distort it - you can also adjust the colour at each node in the mesh and do really nice colour blends - I have only just started using it so I'm not completly up to speed with how it works - but I'm pretty sure it'll do what you want

he tried to cheer me up by telling me some horribly racist jokes, when i complained at that, he said something about the fact that "they should all go back to their own countries"
