Can Photoshop 7 flow text around a picture?

Question

I am trying to use Photoshop to create a flyer that looks like a newspaper article and can not figure out how to get the text to flow around the picture. The bounding box is a rectangle and I want a box shaped basically like an 'L'.

Let me try to better define what I am trying to accomplish.

Start with an 8x10 blank sheet. Divide the sheet into 4 equal quadrants. In the upper right quadrant I want to insert a picture. I want to then insert text which I want to start in the upper left quadrant and then when that is full, automatically 'flow' into the lower left and lower right.

Thanks

I don't know if you can do that on Photoshop 7 or not, probably with a lot of work and playing around with it .... however, here is a free publishing program, that might do what you want easier and faster, as it is made to do this kind of thing.

I recommand you to use Google Picasa to manage and edit your pictures.

Picasa is software that helps you instantly find, edit and share all the pictures on your PC. Every time you open Picasa, it automatically locates all your pictures (even ones you forgot you had) and sorts them into visual albums organized by date with folder names you will recognize. You can drag and drop to arrange your albums and make labels to create new groups. Picasa makes sure your pictures are always organized.

Picasa also makes advanced editing simple by putting one-click fixes and powerful effects at your fingertips. And Picasa makes it a snap to share your pictures ¨C you can email, print photos at home, make gift CDs, instantly share via Hello™, and even post pictures on your own blog.
