Anyone know ho to take a picture in photoshop and skew it so it is 3d as opposed to flat. For instance I want to take an I pod and make it so it is bent around another object.

Try Filters>Render>3D Transform, and play around with the different tools there. They might be just what you're looking for, or they might not be.

Holding command while free-transforming points skews images. Holding shift keeps it in line. Try many of the combinations -- they are your friend.

you could try putting the ipod on a separate layer and using the twirl filter very slightly.

What is shape of the object you plan to bent iPod on? If it is flat then perspective, skew, etc would do. If it's curve then 3D Transform could work.

I may help you more if you could describe what you are going to do exactly
