Default Need to create a logo that follows a curve

I have PScs (not cs2) and need to create a logo that follows the curve of a line....so it ends up looking like a half smile......i do not want to "warp" the text, but have it follow a curved line... Hope that makes sense...have not been able to figure this out.
ASAP would be swell!
Thanks!!
Beka

I would like the text to look like what i have handwritten on the bottom of the circle shape....regular text but rather than in a straight line, on a curve...

does that help to see what I'm after??

thanks!!

This should help.

Sometimes just doing a search will help.

For what it's worth...

Corel Draw provides this feature out the box -- with it's fit text to path feature.

I believe you can also do this in Flash.

You can pull off that trick in Adobe Illustrator as well with the text to path feature.
