It will maybe sound stupid, but when I click CTRL + the point to make the curve, I get that list thingy what sould I do D:

Make sure your settings look like mine do. They're circled in the very first sceenshot in orange. Outside of that, I'm unable to replicate the issue in CS3. :0 Sorry if this is an obvious question, but you're holding the CTRL key, correct? (You can't just tap it, you need to hold it down.) And you're not mistaking it for right-clicking? >w< A right-click is the only way to bring up the options.

OR I am really stupid, or my computer just hates me. I have CS5, maybe that is the problem..

Other CS5 users have been able to use this tutorial. In fact, the only issue I ever have with them is trying to get CS5 to talk to the tablet! >w< When you tried it, did you happen to have caplocks on?

I have Paint Tool SAI instead of Photoshop but there's a similar tool so I used your tutorial for that instead!

Hello! I love your tutorial a lot but when I do it, the lines are edgy and not smooth unlike yours.

Make sure you're using one of the dafult PS brushes, and that your screen is set to 100%.

What level of Minimum Diameter did you use for these? I'm experimenting with mine and its just not coming out totally right.

If I had to guess, I would say that I probably worked between 50-70%. :3

What are the names of the buttons you clicked? I'm using flash pro 8, so I don't have pictures in my pen settings.

Very helpful! I've dabbled with the pen tool a bit, but never tried extra anchor points. Thanks for making this!
