Wave shape

I am looking to make a wave just like the one seen here:

Wave

I want to put the lite blue wave over an image and then cut the image's bottom in the wave to white.

Any ideas?

Thanks! :D

I think it should be easy :D I use photoshop 6 and use elliptical marquee tool to add/subtract selection to make such shapes

Pen tool ...

Pen tool is harder for beginners trust me, ellipitical marquee tool, fill section blah blah is much easier

Pen tool has got to be one of the more simpler tools in that tool box ...

Also, why have them start bad habits. Start using ALL the tools as I had when I started and you won't end up doing stuff the long and hard way.

Yeah whatever I dont feel like to argue the guy can do whatever he wants I dont really care just offering advices because I recently only understood the pen tool, I mostly use for metal wires, etc

Okay well how would I go about using the pen? I will also try the other method.

After you make the anchors just bent them to the way you want
then right click on the curve you made and choose fill the region or stroke, up to you now, gj
