That's based on taste, though. I think the wand tool turns out very pixel-y outsides. The pen tool allows for muuuuuuch more detail on the edge.
Wand tool is great for producing quickly, but the pen tool is where it's at for edge quality, I've found.
You can actually refine the edge with the wand tool. You can feather it, smooth it, contract or expand the edge. You can also, auto enhance the edge which usually corrects small mistakes you may have made.
It is very versatile. The only time I have ever had pixelated edges is with a low-resolution image. But it takes a couple of seconds with an eraser or the blur tool to fix that right up.
Besides, I no longer use low-res images since you introduced me to Getty.
I have tried both to large degrees and you get the same or better results with the quick selection tool. And it's twice as fast. But to each their own. I'd at least try it on a high-res image if I were you and play around with edge refinement. Just some friendly advice. You've given me plenty. :salute:
