- Free transform is an excellent tool…when you want to add a quick warp to an image.…In this example,…I have a file that has a logo layer…with a border as well as an image.…And I want to warp all three of these layers as a single unit.…So in the layers panel…I'll select the waterfall layer,…hold down the shift key,…and then click on the logo layer to select them all.…To convert them to a smart object…I'll right click in the layers panel…and then choose convert to smart object.…Then under the edit menu…I'll select free transform…or use the keyboard shortcut cmd + t or ctrl + t.…
I'll start re-sizing this down,…holding down the shift key in order…to constrain the proportions,…reposition it,…and transform it or scale it a little bit more…to fit the width of the bottle.…Then instead of applying the transformation…I'll click on the warp icon in the options bar.…There are a number of different warp presets…that we can select from.…Things like arcs and arches.…There's even a fish warp.…I'm going to start with the bulge option…
