How to make smooth lines with photoshop 6 or 7

OK start with an image, your choice. I would advise something with a nice color scheme.

Grab the single column marquise tool and make a verticle selection, your choice. In a place where there is a good color range.

 


Control+C (copy) ---

 


Control+N (new)

Once the New window pops up, you already have your correct Height Attribute, now change the Width to a decent width in pixels.

 

Hit ok or Enter.


In your new window, hit Control+V (paste)

Does it look like this? great.

 

Here comes the fun part.


 


 

Go to EDIT>FREE TRANSFORM

While holding the Shift button down, drag either Left or Right of the 1 pixel selection we pasted into the new window.

You will start to see your lines grow.

 

Viola, you've done it.. Congratulatins!
