Help with drawing curved line

Post by Halaster Blackcloak »

I need help drawing a curved line. I fucking HATE this stupid Gimp program! Can anyone here use Photoshop or any other program to draw a simple, perfectly even, non-jagged curved line on a JPG? It shouldn't be this difficult. I can email the room to whoever can do this.

You could create one in GIMP by making a very large brush spot, then using a smaller brush spot with the eraser. then erase the part you don't want.

Do this on a separate layer, the place it over the original layer.

It is a png but can be made into a jpg as well. png does better with transparency and quality.

The type of curve and sharpness can be made at any angle you need.
