I did my by doing that.

1. Make all design (blablabla) and text as diferent layer.
2. Then start to make animation.
3. Press SHIFT+CTRL+ALT+E, it will make all visible layer merge into new layer. Copy that layer (CTRL+A, CTRL+C)
4. Make new document which will be animation's file.
5. Paste, make first frame.
6. Go back on design image and undo merging.
7. Transform text. SHIFT+CTRL+ALT+E. CTRL+A. CTRL+C.
8. Go back to animation. Make new frama. Paste.
9. Go back to design image.
10. In history, undo transformation (or just after design is okey, close it and open once more, then in history wouldn't need to find exact actions to undo just goes back to first state.
11 Repeat 7-10 till done.

I don't think PS is best thing to make text animation but i don't have neither any 3D modeling programs...so it will take some tame. But if doing algoritm step by step, then it not so bad.

I'm not sure if CS2 is capable of doing text on a circular path.... But here's a tute.... Photoshop Type On A Path Tutorial - Learn How To Add Text On A Path...

Once done.... CTRL+T and rotate the text.....


Hope this helps bro....

LoL...i'm hiding in a shadow

I forgot to mention, that transformation is better (if posible) do by changing parametrs in transformation options. If it isn't posible, then don't in 10. don't undo all, just undo merging.
