I trying to do the technique at the bottom of this link (the text “around the world” wrapping around the sphere, but I don’t have Illustrator CS2. If anyone does and wants to do it for me, I’ll pay you for your time. I need it within the next few hours though. PM me for details and I’ll send you the artwork I have thus far for reference.
