| Hello
| Thank you for your help.
| I'm studing your examples on www. It's very useful information for me.
| Do you have any examples to draw text around a circle?

I am glad you asked...

Arc Distortion...
   http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/distorts/#map_circlar_arc
Polar Distortion...
   http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/distorts/#map_polar

Watch the disjunction or asymptote  in the mapping for polar.

I am hoping to create a generalised distort handling function that we
can add distorions to, and as a result will proparly handle the
asymptote in the above.

Affine and perspective maps can be classed as special cases of this
generalised distorter, which I want to be simple enough to add lots
of different distotions (with simple arguments) for people to use.

Ideas welcome.
