Are you guys using a vector drawing tools or do I just need some more lessons with Photoshop? |
I'm unable to produce a smooth curve with Ellipse selection tool even though the anti-alias is turned on. I gave up and used vector ellipse instead. It is included in Photoshop (I dunno if PS 6.0 and before have it too). A problem with Vector Ellipse Tool is that you are unable to make all curve equally in pixel. Some curve corner will have more pixels than other curve corner. Some is smoother while other is kinda pixelated but at least it's better than Ellipse Selection tool

My only way to make all corner equally is to cut the other 3/4 then copy/paste and flip horizontally, copy/paste again and flip vertically.
If I'm not explaining clearly, let me know.
I hope PS 8.0 will fix the pixelated problem with selection tool.
