hello all. I am glad I found this site. Its not very active but... sooo much great info on it. I am a digi scrapper and I want to be able to do text on a curve. I know how to do the normal text on a curve or shape, but I want to be able to write on the bottom of a circle vector, so that the letters are still facing the correct way. Does that make sense? Like this

any help would be appreciated!
This question is a bit out of my league. There was a similar tutorial posted on this subject. Lets see if it helps.

I have to be honest I tried this and didn't do so hot. It was probably just me though. I hope this helps.

Better Late then never You need two circles/path's Reverse the path of one of them as Text follows the path So on the reversed path it flows the opposite way
