Hello,

 

I'm using Photoshop CS3 with windows 764 bit... 

I've run into an issue with the Polygon lasso tool...   I'm trying to paint scrap marks on the side of a space craft texture...   

I used to use the lasso tool to make the jagged edges...   But for some reason now, when I complete the loop, it turns what ever I made into some kind of square or 90 degree angle insted of letting me make sharp edges, like the tips of mountains.

I've attached an image of what I'm working with and maybe someone can tell me what the heck is going on.

Help!!!!

It's going to be the most obvious in a low resolution image. But even in a high resolution image if you zoom to in you will see it's squared off around the pixel.

Thanks for the tip...  I'm having a feeling that's the problem...   I'll have to figure out how to boost the size of my UV mapp that I'm working on.

Thanks for the tip.
