Default OT Deforming a picture

http://www.gimp.org/

gimp is open source and works on windows macs and unix
and does almost everything photoshop does..
so its worth learning as you can download it anywhere

tools/ transform tools /perspective

dont know how to do it though...

I'd start by drawing a box on it in a new layer which you want to be at
right angles,
then try various tranformation...

I have a photo which was taken looking upwards to high on a wall and I

is it called? Googling on picture deformation doesnt come up with
anything useful

Google "Perspective Correction"
