Photoshop CS3 ext: adding text

[Nimitz]

Simple question: I'm adding some text to an image put want to orient the text at an angle other then horizontal or vertical to line up with something within the image.

Can someone tell me how to orient text at an odd angle? Thanks

After entering the text and hitting enter, you can select the text as an object and it should have grips (to resize it). If you hold the cursor just outside the selected text, the cursor should turn into the rotate cursor...you can take it from there.

At least that's how I remember it, off the top of my head.

Click the text on the Layers palette, then Edit/Transform/Rotate.
Then if you go on Warp mode you have many presets to chose from.

That's got it, thanks!
