I am a self taught user of CS4 so I really don't knwo much of its real capabilities. I made this collage of some vacation photos to decorate a travel coffee mug I have. You can unscrew the bottom and slide paper or pictures in. Basically I have a rectangle and I am tryin to figure out how to take the entire image and skew it into a sort of rounded trapezoid. I am pretty sure CS4 is capable of this I just can't find how to do it. Any help or direction to a useful tut would be appreciated. thanks.

So I have figured out that with free transform I can hold ctrl or ctrl+shift while grabbing points to skew, but once I have my trapezoid how can I arc the top and base and have the image skew accordingly?

I have a cup like that also. Do you still have the paper that came with the cup?
If so scan it and then you have your template.
Just a thought.
