I always face problem with using pen tool to create smooth curves... specially when I give grediant to the shape or the background colour is some dark colour the crude edges of the shape are clearly visible..
can anyone give me a tip how to create smooth curved shapes with photoshop?
I am trying to create shapes in photoshop but they all seem to have rough edges. Is there a way around this? 1. I have been using the "rectangular marquee tool" to draw a square. 2. Filling it in with a color 3. Then to Edit > Transform > Skew. Then I pull in show corners, push some out. Now the edges look horrible.

how to make curved lines like these?
I am using a Mac, photoshop CS5
I created a path with Curves with the pen tool.filled it in with a color light blue.than I use the paint bucket to change it to dark blue.This is when the curved lines become jagged, not smooth, uneven.
I am attempting to redo this logo for a client and cannot seem to find a simple way of getting the circles to slightly get bigger each time and then follow an arc round.
I have tried messing with paths and then attempted to just do it manually/freehand but it just doesn't look right. Surely there must be a quicker simple way? Any ideas?
why is this happening, curved lines in Illustrator CS6 are not smooth. Running Ill-CS6 on Win7 machine.No matter how much you zoom in or out lines just don't look right.

it seems that you will not be able to generate such a graphic using the default settings in photoshop.
I am right now using the maximum number of colors allowable in the 'save for web' optimization tool (which is 256 for both jpg and gif apparently) I know JPGs are the file type for the job generally speaking, but without optimization the JPG is too large to use for a web page header.
I created the following image some time ago and can't remember how I created the lines.
I know that I definitely did not use the pen tool; it was some kind of tool where I could draw a straight line, and depending how far across the image the line was, the more round it became.
Essentially, it was like a line tool that would warp into curved lines.

I am using a very old version of Photoshop (i.e. Photoshop 6.0).If it is possible to create text along a curved path in Photoshop 6.0 (Windows)? If so, how?Note that I do not want to create wraped text (using Arc etc.).
Specifically, I want to type text along the lower half of a circular image.checked various blogs that show how to do that for more recent versions (or MAC version) of Photoshop.

Hopefully these pictures will explain the issue:
When viewed actual size (100x)
When viewed zoomed (400x)
So my question is: is there a way to align them perfectly? or a is this known to be impossible in illustrator? Is there a workaround?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to create curved text in GIMP. Here are the steps which I complete:
1. Create a curved path
2. Type the text
3. Click text to path
This all works fine, except that it doesn't give me all of the text along the path. For example, if the text is supposed to read "Church-wide Picnic," it will only give me "Church-wide Pi."
I have created the path all the way across the screen and made the text as small as possible, and it still does this.
I am struggling to create a smooth transition between radii called out on a drawing. I am also unsure of how to create a flange on that edge of my part.
Here is the drawing and the model I have created so far.
I am trying to create a vignette on an image and find that when I use a brush with a fuzzy edge the result is not what I'm looking for. There are these circles that are left behind where there should be a smooth transition. (See Attachment)

Next, I tried placing swatches of colors and then using the arch as a mask ... but it would only pick up the solid colors, so there were no transitions. Is there a way to bend the straight color spectrum bitmap shown in the graphic?

I've used Photoshop 5 for 14+ years now and was forced to switch to Photoshop Elements 11 when we installed new computers at work recently. It seems to be missing an important tool (for me) that I can't seem to find. I don't know the official name but I called it a "vector" tool. You could draw custom curved and straight lines between set points to create a unique shape. Does it exist or is there a newer way to do the same task?
