Hi i new, i'm from mexico and can't fin liquify anywhere too :unsure:

Make sure you have Photoshop version 7. It should be under Filter-Liquify... That's what it'll look like. It'll pull up a box that will let you smear, twirl, enlarge, or shrink parts of your picture. I don't know where it is on other versions.

No, i have photoshop cs2, <_<
I fin in filter / liquify or shift+ctrl+x :D
