    Lordlum got a reaction from IdeaStormer in Bit of Help With Design?   
    I think it's done through adobe illustrator, it has functions in that program to solve what you ask.
     
    Nonetheless, you can achieve that in photoshop, but will need to do it manually with some angle calculation and manual placement:
     
    1. Create a line with the wordings
    and upside down version of 
    2. Adjust the rotation anchor point to the left depending on your choice of diameter
     
    3. Make a copy (duplicate), set rotation to +90 degree.
     
    4. Then start making few copies filling in between the spaces, you can do it manually according to your visual judgement or by mathematical calculation
    ie: 90degrees/(how many lines in between you want +1) = (how many degrees for each lines)
     
    5. Finish a sample of a quarter, copy the quarter 3 times, to form a complete circle.
     
    I guess that's how I would do it. It's a bit cumbersome.

    Um, yes it is, some might not consider it a programming language as it's not compiled, but it is a language (it says it in the name, HyperText Markup Language). If you're worried about lazy syntax issues you can use XHTML which has more strict requirements.
     
    As far as first languages go, I'd recommend C/C++, it's really not as bad as some people make it seem IMO.

    Of course they are considered languages, they're just not programming languages.
    HTML, as you say, is a markup language, whereas CSS is a stylesheet language.
    LaTeX is another example of something related to this.
     

    Ahem, no. They are in the markup/stylesheet category because they are in fact markup/stylesheet
    languages, plain and simple. How forgiving a langauge (markup or programming) is has nothing to
    do with whether or not it's a programming language.
    For example, LaTeX can be a rather big pain if you get something small-ish wrong, and
    the same goes for CSS and HTML. Just ask somebody who ever forgot to close an HTML
    tag or misspelt a CSS reference. :lol:
    In fact, now that I think about it, CSS is probably one of the most annoying things
    I've ever had the 'pleasure' to use, I'm considering going up the walls just thinking
    about it.
     

    As said, ^this.
     

    I'm actually quite fond of C. Sure, solving common tasks with it can be a bit of a
    pain, but as a language itself I rather like it. It also has the advantage of not
    being a very complex language. Sure, becoming a good C programmier can take
    many, many years (I'm not, btw.), but learning the basics is not that monumental a
    task.
    Getting the basics of programming in C++ shouldn't be much more difficult (if at all),
    it's just that the language really is something of a behemoth with regards to its
    feature set, but you don't necessarily need to learn all of the advanced stuff in
    the beginning of course.

    The best 1st language is either JavaScript, or PHP. if you are into website development. If you into Window Applications, C# or VB is a good starting point. HTML, and CSS is not considered to be languages. They are in the Markup Languages category because they are so forgiving when you create a syntax error. Real language will not run because 1 miss type error. You have to hunt down that little error and fix it for the app to run.
