I want to wrap text around a curved line.

I found this website that sorta shows you how to do it but I don't understand.

One problem I am potentially facing is that my text is inside a div. I don't know if it will work like that.

Here's my Image:



I want my dive text to touch the transparent spaces but not the red/white/red space

the only way to get the text to wrap around the image, the way its going to work is its going to be around the image as in..

around the image in that about me place, in your image you won't be able to get it to go around the circle part in the image.


and if you want to do it how it is on that myspace go here..

no, I can do picture alignment. that's not what I need. This layout depends on this.

They did it HERE.

why can't I do it?

because its myspace.
Myspace doesn't allow a lot of stuff, it sucks. Thats why you just get web sites I suppose.

here's a little example



I want the text to wrap around circle part that you see.

It has the extra trasparent part to make sure it fills up the div

EDIT

Ok I've got an idea: I broke down the images into six slices. I want to have the text wrap aroud them in the normal way.

here are the images:

THe first image only has white in it so it's hard to see

here's the text I want to put there
