Wow thanks it looks like there might be a solution in all that. Trouble is, I don't understand what they're talking about. I'm a novice with graphics programmes. I've been trying to search youtube for a video that might help me.

Here is a link to the warp tutorial on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCHv34FkLGo Warping looks like it's what I need to do to make my text and graphics fit around cone and round shaped objects. But I don't know how to put the object I need to fit it to on the canvas, so I can get everythin...

I cut vinyl film for use on different shaped objects like buckets and christmas ornaments. I have seen a tutorial on how to use the warp feature, but my question is how do I size it to fit my specific object? Is there some way to represent my object on the canvas to fit text and / or images to it?
