Hi there

What version of PS are you using? Is the shape vector or pixel based?(did you draw it with the shape tool?). Does it make the shape jaggy on screen or when you print? If it's on screen then a common answer to the prob is to change your view size. Change it to 100% for the most realistic preview, a view size of 66.7% for example will always look bad on screen.

Im using CS3. The shape is vector based, I drew it with the shape tool, but I use the vector outline. My view size is at 100%.
