Open word, click Insert -> Picture -> Wordart
Select it, copy it, paste it in Photoshop

As for actually doing it in photoshop I'm not sure.

in photoshop CS.

beside the font colour box on the toolbar at the top of page, is a box with a T inside it and a curved line underneath the T.
click this and play my friend

you may need to select the text tool first from the toolbar on the left

Ok, how do I do a black background with the same curve?, haha..

ie.. a curved bar under ride hard ride free.

Trying to make a poster logo or use for doing rockers later

Make a new layer, draw a shape on it, fill it with colour, position layer under the text layer,Select free transform and manipulate to suit.

Use InDesign, Freehand or Illustrator.

No I'm afraid the question was how to do it in Photoshop

And none of those programs listed I have ever had any training to do the stuff I can do in photoshop. Just escaped my mind how to do these curved bits with text and make them look good.

I would agree that a vector appilcation like CorelDRAW, Freehand, Illustrator is a hell of lot easier (and probably quicker) to design and then you can use the template features...

being vector you don't have to worry about transparent backgrounds and feathering edges to get that clean look... Text is crisper, and for simple designs like that files sizes probably a heck of lot smaller

Thanks for the info, I'll try what I can on photoshop for now.
