Text On A Path & Isolating Image Elements

Two excellent resources to review text on a path:

1. Adobe's Creating Text On A Path.
2. A video tutorial by Deke McClelland.

Isolating parts of an image in Photoshop:

2. Create a temporary quick mask, on Photoshop Product Support.
3. Extract an object from its background, on Photoshop Product Support.
4. Change pixels to transparent with the Background Eraser tool, on Photoshop Product Support.
