How do you get your lines to be smooth when using the pen tool? Like i thought vectors were supposed to be able to be resized and not lose quality. When i fill my paths, they usually end up looking rough.
like here: all the curves have little jagged edges. is there any way to fix that? Am I doing something wrong? |

Are you using Photoshop or Illustrator? If you're using the Photoshop pen tool, you need to have it set to "Shape Layers" instead of "Paths". The paths option makes a bitmap path (and when you fill it with the paint bucket, it stays rasterized). The shape layers keep them as vectors.
