Stroking path in Photoshop 5.5

  #1  
Oct 13th, 2003
Hi everyone,
I use the paintbrush tool at 4 pixel size to stroke a curvy path I have made using the pen tool in Photoshop 5.5, but instead of the resulting curve being smooth and beutifull it turns out very jaggy and ugly, could someone please tell me where I've gone wrong?
Thanks in advance

Just ctrl+click on your layer, and go to edit > stroke.

Easier way to stroke any layer/image

the only thing I can think of is if your resolution on the file is set too low.

If this is a web graphic, go ahead and preview it - perhaps it will show up fine once you preview to save it as a JPG or GIF or PNG. For some reason, my photoshop does that sometimes - but when I save it as a web graphic, it's very smooth. just a thought.
