1.
Open empty page.



2. click "new layer"


3.
open your image. Copy it to empty document so you can work on it as a layer.



4.
if your image is horizontal then flip it about 90 degree. is easier to do it this way.
(ctrl+T and then right mouse click on picture. rotate 90. if done click enter.)



5.
right :)
you half way :)
now go to your filter>distort>shear...

you will see window pop up with line. click on the middle and curve it


when happy with your curve click ok. your image will turn in curve.



6.
now you need to turn it back to normal :) so click ctrl+T again and rotate it back.



7. now your picture back to normal. hit enter so transfer border disappear.



8.
now go to: edit>transform>perspective. border will appear again. click one of the top corners and move your mouse to the right/left. image will transform.



9. when happy hit enter.
you done!
